Our best choice

What if things he wants are real, and do happen under his presidency? What if he’s genuine and can actually accomplish great things that do restoreour country, and protects the Jewish people here and abroad? I believe in Trump, and feel like Hashem wants to save America. Do you want sharia law? Do you want social security to end immediately? On the other hand, job growth, balanced budget, better education structure, and so much more promising and positive outcomes will happen,if you think about it. Trump is the only candidate who has actually proven himself to be successful on a… Read more »

Important to vote Trump
March 19, 2016 10:16 pm

As Jews, it is in our interest for America to be stable and successful. Hillary and Bernie would be unmitigated disasters, with Bernie having the additional issue of making a tremendous chillul Hashem. Cruz simply does not have the skills or support to lead effectively. Trump stabilizing the US is what the Jews in America and Israel need right now.

Ultimately it's up to Hashem...
March 19, 2016 9:09 pm

… But I sure hope G-d doesn’t choose Trump. I have never witnessed a scarier ego-maniac run for office. The man is a total nut-job (and he’s orange, to boot)! I fear for such a man to be in the highest office of the land. Let’s vote for Bernie, the man who has a letter (with brochos) from the Rebbe and the only person with integrity running for president.

Dump Trump
March 18, 2016 5:58 pm

Bernie Sanders is the only honest Mentch in the race. All the rest of them are grub self-serving narcissists. And spare me the “socialist” garbage; fewer communities are more dependent on state and federal welfare than frum Jews. I would love to see what would happen to Crown Heights if Ted Cruz got elected with a favorable Congress and eliminated Obamacare, Medicaid, Food Stamps, Earned Income Credits, Head Start, Section 8, WIC, Pell Grants etc.

It would not be pretty.

For Jews he’s definitely the safest bet. Heck, his daughter is Jewish. rest assured he will have our best interests in mind.

Chabad for Bernie
March 18, 2016 5:03 pm

Fact: Most of Crown Heights will fare way better under socialism.

Wake up people, Trump is the best choice. Only Trump can win.

Chabad for Bernie

I am very definitely a real person and quite well-informed, thank you. I am sick of lying politicians who are bought by special interest. Trump has given huge money to Israel and come out for Simon Jacobson. His daughter had a real conversion, is shomer Shabbos and he has 2 Jewish grandchildren. If you listened carefully, he passionately described his great love for Israel but said he had to at least appear open to the “other side.” The liberal media has run a lying smear campaign against him using despicable, cheap name-calling, which, BH, has backfired. I do not believe… Read more »

Trump is 1st rate Con Man
March 18, 2016 11:17 am

Nothing more. His entire career he became rich by scamming the little guy. He’s doing the same to America, now. Don’t let him bankrupt America for his own gain. Do your research.

What about people that only want to go on collive (and other chabad websites) would also like to get a glimpse of what’s going on

I've watched every republican debate and I can tell you this
March 18, 2016 9:09 am

Trump is the absolute worst for Israel. He simply doesn’t get it, he’s brainwashed by the media in this area.

One more point
March 18, 2016 7:59 am

He wants the jewish vote along with all the other votes he is getting.

What you do know is that he will be so busy with the wall and all the other things he promised, that israel is not on the top of his list which is a very good thing

Reality
March 18, 2016 7:46 am

For the same reason romney did not win 2014 is the same reason that no one stands a chance against hillary other than trump! Intresting to consider as well this thiught, we know not to ever trust the media as we can see the lies when it comes to israel, yet they tell you that trump is bad and he is this that and the other and all us big political analysts have an opinion. And for bush being israel’s freind, remember gush katif yea i thought so! it was him who came up with the road map to peace,… Read more »

Bravo! It’s about time one of the “Trump Bots” made it to col comment section. You should be ashamed of yourself (if you r even a real person) Trump is fanning people’s worst fears and utilizing it for his own personal gain. The man is an excellent promoter and that’s about it. He actually thinks vaccines cause autism. He thinks Obama was born in Kenya. He thinks Israel is the aggressor and the list goes on.
If you think being a billionaire makes him trustworthy or fit to lead then you don’t deserve to vote.

What's all this about 'deals' between Israel & palestinians?
March 18, 2016 12:09 am

Hey Mr Trump, didn’t you ever hear this line: ‘you can’t negotiate with terrorists’.

in the end it doesnt matter
March 17, 2016 11:47 pm

Hashem runs the world. Didnt matter who was President of US or Prime Minister of Israel
All that matters is Hashem’s Will for us..

"First they came for the socialists...
March 17, 2016 11:12 pm

Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out – because I was not a trade unionist; Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out – because I was not a Jew; Then they came for me – and there was no one left to speak out for me.”- Martin Niemoller

Wants to make a deal...a really huge deal
March 17, 2016 10:47 pm

Between Israel and the Palestinians.
Haven’t we heard this before?

March 17, 2016 10:21 pm

Just because he says he doesnt want them in usa doesnt mean he cares if theyre in israel. Two separate places and he lives in usa not israel. Besides at least half of what he says cant be taken seriously. Not positive he will be good for israel, he can say what he wants now to win votes, and as it is he is conflicting with his positions. Sometimes he says he is the best supporter/friend to israel, and other times he says he is neutral.

from the horse's own mouth, Trump would force Israel to the negotiating table
March 17, 2016 10:15 pm

RUBIO: And To have a president forcing the Israelis to the table is harmful to the Israeli and emboldens Israel’s enemies. HEWITT: Thank you senator. (APPLAUSE) Mr. Trump a response and then we’ll go to Governor Kasich. TRUMP: If I become president of the United States, one of the things that will be an absolute priority is number one, protection of Israel, but also seeing if a deal can be made, the toughest deal, the toughest negotiation there probably is of any kind no matter where you look, no matter how hard you look. But I would like to give… Read more »

Even the Reform leader realize he's bad for Israel
March 17, 2016 10:14 pm

From Reform Leader: “I am a Zionist dove, and I don’t expect Presidential candidates to express lock-step agreement with the policies of Israel’s government. But I do expect a coherent, pro-Israel policy, rooted in a consistent and knowledgeable approach to foreign affairs and in a broad commitment to American leadership in the world. Trump has demonstrated none of these things, and seems to know hardly anything at all about Israel, the challenges she faces, and how the Middle East actually works.”

Not a friend
March 17, 2016 10:13 pm

“In a December interview with the Associated Press, Trump questioned Israel’s commitment to peace and refused to back an undivided Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, a red line for many GOP Israel supporters.”

I hate Trump
March 17, 2016 10:01 pm

I think he will be terrible for everyone. And I don’t trust a word he says.

Go trump
March 17, 2016 9:53 pm

Let’s be clear. You could want Ted Cruz a you want. He will not win ! Bush was a supporter of Israel too. So what. What has changed. Israel doesn’t need America. Bottom line Trump will win and I want him in office not Hillary. #Trump2016

trump will..
March 17, 2016 9:17 pm

trump will do anything to get votes

to number 4
March 17, 2016 9:14 pm

i disagree. i think politics is a very important (and entertaining) topic

I love Trump
March 17, 2016 9:03 pm

He will be great for Israel and the Jewish people. Cruz wants us to accept Yoshke! Beware.

Still not sure
March 17, 2016 9:01 pm

I’m still not sure, trump doesn’t want to make it clear till he is president, and for now remaining neutral, which gives it room to think he has some sort of good israel and Palestinian deal, which he thinks is good for Israel, and that he could be israels best friend, but no deal is to be made.

I am still voting for trump because if he can temporary ban Muslim in the US I don’t think he would want them to have a state in the only Jewish state.

if pro israel
March 17, 2016 8:45 pm

if you are pro-israel vote for Ted Cruz – a real Israel supporter who doesn’t want Israel to give up its land.

Let's keep the politics off COL
March 17, 2016 8:42 pm

Please. We’re all sick and tired of the non stop election coverage. We don’t need it here too…

you have to understand
March 17, 2016 8:28 pm

that hashem is running the world no matter how hard they try he’s is showing something the people want

Trump is good for Trump
March 17, 2016 8:27 pm

And no one else.

So now we see how he's trying to do it...
March 17, 2016 8:20 pm

We all knew he would try to get to us Jews somehow, and voila here it is. I hope no one is ignorant enough to not see past his facade
