As I wrote in Vanguard for Victories in Vocabulary: https://centurionoftheseed.substack.com/p/vanguard-for-victories-in-vocabulary

For people who pride themselves as the party of intellectualism — you sure don’t think things through. In The Unconscious is Not What You Think It Is TEDx Talk, Dr. Joel Weinberger proudly proclaimed the following on being right about Trump’s 2016 win:

How did we get it right and everyone else get it wrong? By miserably failing to ask the right questions years before — you unwittingly created the conditions to “get it right.” Now look where you are — outraged over Roe v. Wade and Trump on the rise once again (oblivious to how you brought it all on yourselves).

And NOW look where you are (AGAIN) — so proud of your Victories in Vocabulary.

Watching the recent mini pogrom in Amsterdam, and similar disturbing incidents of unopposed antisemitism in Germany and Britain it is hard not to compare today’s complacent Democrat-voting Jews with their denialist 1930s Berlin counterparts. Wake up people. This is not just about Israel. Nor is it just about Jews

I have little personal experience with American Jews but this fits well with what I have been reading. Another Jew with little interest in Judaism or Israel is Kamala Harris’ husband Doug Emhoff.

A few Jews did not vote since they disliked both Harris and Trump. And a few non Orthodox did vote for Trump.

Let’s hope he stops the money train to Iran. That began with Obama, and both Biden and Harris have similar outlooks.

Let’s hope the Dems get away from this legacy.

I think Trump is more bluster and braggadocio than Jewish protector, but what strikes me most, as the writer notes, is that "there has not been the slightest trace of criticism coming from Obama and then Biden and the Democrats of the fact that all Arab states and most Islamic states are tyrannies of various sorts, some of them being Jihad exporting Sharia based Islamic states, who treat women, racial and religious minorities as unequal before the law."

What Trump wisely divined is that a majority of Americans prefer their own values to those of woke nihilists and terrorist sympathizers.
