Trump wrote "No President has done more for Israel than I have. Somewhat surprisingly, however, our wonderful Evangelicals are far more appreciative of this than the people of the Jewish faith... U.S. Jews have to get their act together and appreciate what they have in Israel - Before it is too late!" on TruthSocial. https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/109177817932811190 Say what you want-to about 'whether the claims (in the image) are true' or 'what exactly "The Evangelical support" he's talking-about is,' but that statement (and the media's reaction to it) makes me wonder if 'converting' (or is it 'converting back'?) would be a good idea. What's the difference between Jews & Christians anyway (beside the 'boiler-plate' "Jesus died for our sins")? Jews are 'born Jewish' (you hear about celebrities who are "half-" or "a quarter-Jewish," because not-all of their parents-or-grandparents were Jewish ... making them 'that Jewish' no matter WHAT they believe). I remember discussing with an elementary-school friend (back before my Catholic Confirmation (and maybe his---I don't remember if he 'went through with it')), coming to the logical conclusion that we were Jews at the time---not necessarily 'by ancestry,' but by the same method as Abram/Abraham (the very first Jew). And wasn't Jesus a Jew? If we're not Jews, how can we claim His sacrifice to cover us?

Jews in Isreal don't vote. American Jews vote and a majority of them support the democratic party.
