  1. We should show that we support the Democrats compassion for workers rights, asylum seekers and the poor, the Republicans are for the 1%, the rich and white supremacy.

    1. Sadly, too many of us identify with the rich, even when we are not rich ourselves.
      People don't realize how many of our community suffer from the republican xenophobia and anti-immigrant policies.
      Trump's economic policies, like replacing income tax with tariffs, will wreak havoc on the lower-middle class, to which most of us belong. But people still support him.

    3. "Trump's economic policies, like replacing income tax with tariffs" was something Biden kept after getting into office. Despite railing against it beforehand as something that "will wreak havoc on the lower-middle class"

    5. The Democrats only care about people who are either on welfare, broke the law, live a toevah lifestyle or are at very least non-white.

    6. Yet his policies during his previous term helped the middle class, and Biden/Harris have hurt us. How can you be so brainwashed that you refuse to see facts and just believe hype. Do you recall the 100's of economic professionals who predicted the market crashing when Trump will win. Those same professionals are advising Harris.
      While I may not like Trump, it's about his policies and the moral compass of the country. Democrats openly tell you they prefer when the masses are government dependent.

    7. Whenever someone tells you about the 1%, they're referring to the Jews. We have an antisemite here on hefkervelt using the typical antisemitic dog whistle. Beware.

    8. People are inventing history. Nobody ever replaced income tax with tariffs, so none of these stories are relevant.

      Nobody said the market would crash if Trump won. In the short term, his policies are great. But that is exactly the point. His 'govern from the gut' style meant that people are happy in the short term, but the long term suffers. By then he was out already, but he, and his type, never actually think further than the ends of their noses.

    12. Finding a monitory group to scapegoat and blame for the countries problems is a universal rabble rousing demagoguery tactic of the far right and far left. The Democrats like all radical political groups use the 1% for that purpose. (they fight with plenty of other groups too, like religious people)

    13. We should show that we support the Democrats compassion

      Thank you dear DNC paid "volunteer".

      Their compassion has made it that I cannot ride public transportation in NY, without risking life and limb.
      Their compassion has them providing Iran with over 100 billion to try and hurt our community, and all of the USA - including you.

      No; thanks for your offer.

    15. AnonymousAugust 20, 2024 at 8:23 PM In any country in the world, ipso facto, the one precent is going to be in control of many areas. Including communist ones. What the aspiring communists and democrats tell the party faithful is this fact makes us their victims That is where the danger starts. That mindset has led to disaster in every country it took strong hold

  6. Agudah hasn't learned their lesson they are blind to the hatred and moral decay of the left from their gaavah of feeling elite and smarter than 90% of Klal Yisroel who sees through it. They sacked up to Cuomo and he stabbed them in the heart by covid. They attacked Trump to score points with the left and showed klal yisroel what fools the agudists are as they play dangerous political games putting frum American Jews in Sakana. They again went to the Democrat convention stoking more antisemitism

  8. This is why no one takes Agudah seriously not only are they guilty of being fools but they took a page out of Niturei karta playbook and are putting yidden in danger by stoking hatred and an antisemitic event that has become the DNC
    Theses self appointed askanin do not represent Klal yisroel
