1. Problem is...
Heshy ,   New York usa   (01.20.16)
Problem is most american Jews are secular liberals and last two elections 80 per cent voted for Obama. Now there will probably be 95 per cent voting Hillary. The secular jews support her because they only care about abortion rights and gay marriage. The chassidic groups are heavily funded by democrats so they too will vote Hillary. It's only about five or ten per cent of american Jews who are either traditional or orthodox that support Trump. Trump knows that so he does not campaign among Jews. His daughter became a sabbath observer jewess so he won't hurt israel. Plus a number of chassidim are very connected to her in business. Vote Trump. He will be good for America and Israel.
2. Bush promised the same and never fulfilled it.

As a Jewish Israeli I laud all the great support for Israel, but.... If I were a US citizen (which I am not), I would want to hear how support for Israel is in the best interests of my country, the US. There are certainly good reasons which may include a democratic ally in the Middle East, a good source for intelligence and understanding about the ME, a great source of new technology and advanced agricultural developments, a strong ally which shares US ethics and values, and probably more. I would like to hear US leaders talk about US interests and values which align with support for Israel.
7. Why Trump different you ask
Heshy ,   New York usa   (01.20.16)
Trump is independent. He does not need anyone's money. He is very connected to the jewish people over many years. He was the grand marshal of the 2004 NYC israeli day parade on fifth ave. He saved a little three year old orthodox jewish boys life by offering his plane to fly the child from california to New York for an operation with his medical equipment while commercial airlines refused. He awarded a yeshiva student from the lakewood yeshiva by paying off his mortgage for stopping to help Trumps car that had a flat tire. The young man refused any payments for helping Trump so Trump traced the yeshiva boys address through his car license plate and secretly payed off his home mortgage. Trump donated one hundred thousand dollars to the first aid Hatzolah organization in jerusalem to help save lives. He is what America needs. A leader with a brain and guts as well. Enough with the liberal democrats who are arming Iran all in the name of peace. This peace charade costed 1000 jewish lives under Clinton and Rabins peace show. Fifty thousand guns were given to the PA so now they can use guns to kill jews instead of rocks. Too bad we don't have Trump being president of israel.
8. NYJews vote Dem by default
JEW WITH WORLD VIEW ,   US Jewrasic Park   (01.20.16)
Anti-Zionist ultra Orthodox voted for Obama, who is openly-same sex marriage ideologue, together with his many other idiosyncratic idealogies. When asked why, the Arafat-Ahmadinejad Natureicartist will tell you that their voting habits have nothing to do with ideology, but with their selfish interests. The vast majority of NY Jews are die-hard Democrats, never mind their 2016 Democratic svengaly Hillary embraced Suha Arafat and as Secretary of State often publicly ostracized the Israeli government of the day. With or w/o US embassy in JerUSAlem, the NY Jews are the three pillars of the Democrats and their pundits-geld, kessef and money.

(01.20.16)
Else same old story of slippery butter tongue blablabla politicians. I admire him because he is a billionaire that can raise people out of poverty as Arabs petroleum money never save them from mediocrity and poverty displacement to desiring other people land and countries. Fearless to move the embassy to Jerusalem where others couldn't. Hardworking individuals that can bring their experience and leadership to the world stage than beggary charity begins at home giving screamers to feed all the worlds poverty people without skills to manage their own lives. That can say it as it is that is Donald Trump. I think his leadership can bridge the gaps between!!!!!!!
13. #11 Correction, you mean Hillary
Benji ,   US   (01.20.16)
Hillary has the kissing lecherous husband and the email scandal that keeps giving. Not to mention the Benghazi movie that won't let the public forget her deceit. Trump has received endorsements from a wide range of supporters so enjoy the ride.

infamous road map to HELL !
15. Donald Trump, thank you
CJK   (01.20.16)
the united states need a man with strong personality and principles to keep the country from falling in the abyss. israel needs an american leader who will stop demonising her at every turn. the middle east needs an american leader who does not side with murderous jihadists who slaughter christians, yazidis, jews, and secular muslims. donald trump has proven that he can beat opponents. donald trump has proven that he has brought up decent, hard working children. donald trump has proven that he shows tolerance toward those who are tolerant themselves, but does not abide by those who are themselves intolerant. donald trump has made it very clear that he will stand up for the values that originated in the torah and on whose bases are the us constitution. may hashem bless donald trump and may he be elected president of the united states of america.

Rvkh   (01.21.16)
the CIA why moving the US Embassy to Jerusalem is not a good idea. It is very expensive and the embassy in Tel Aviv is adequate. When the world community recognizes Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, a war will result that will become WWIII since an agreement to recognizing the ownership of Jerusalem by Israel signals the end of Gentile world rule seven years later according to Daniel in Scriptures.
