Those of us who live in solid Democrat strongholds amid single-minded leftists will know what it is like to attempt a civil conversation about President Trump. This is especially true if one encounters those true-blue Dems in the wealthiest areas of California, N.Y., and D.C. Because they are wealthy, successful, often educated at one of the prestige colleges, they know, with every fiber of their being, that they are smarter, wiser, and better than any of us lowly, deplorable Trump-supporters.
If they are Jewish, and you ask them if they appreciate Trump's support of Israel, they will look at you, roll their eyes as if you were even more verklempt than they thought. They hate Trump more than they love Israel. If you ask them if they are bothered by the open acceptance of anti-Semitism by the Democratic Party, they will shrug at the lunacy of your question and say something like "anti-Semitism has always been with us." They will deny to their death its escalation across the world at this moment in time, despite the obvious overt escalation and implicit approval of and by the global left. Their identities since the 2016 election are defined by their opposition to Trump. They have sold their souls because their candidate lost the election.
Ask them if they are not pleased with his phenomenal success regarding the economy. Are not the economic developments under Trump great for them, their 401(k)s, their stock portfolios? Have not his foreign policy maneuvers been successful? Are we not immeasurably better off overall than under Obama? Again, they will regard your question with disgust and disdain. As many others have observed, they hate the president more than they love this country, this country that made their privilege, wealth, and safety possible.

Why are new conservatives obsessed with Jew's and Israel. Are the Jews apart of some Biblical prophecy and worlds end game ? It wasn't long ago the same people were Holocaust deniers and blaming Jew's for global banking conspiracies. That was equally weird. Some one enlighten me please. Sure it's the same God but it's also the Muslim god just a different prophet. All these immigrants at the border are Christians. Mostly Catholic. Growing up Catholic here I can remember all the cracker Christians in their white washed barn churches being highly suspect of us being Italians,Irish,Hungarians and Polish believing were devoted to the Pope and the Virgin. They didn't like that Monsignor Stout moved us out of store fronts and built churches one of the biggest and a school and we sent our kids to college.
It is New Testament Christians who are concerned about the machinations of the elite Jewish banking families. Some have traced their lineage back to the Saduccees who were present when Jesus Christ was murdered. They have inherited the possession of those demons.
Religion is real.
Politics is an illusion.
