Well, that headline probably set a record for invoking Godwin's Law, now didn't it? But sadly, in this case it does not seem to be inappropriate. To back up a bit, even before their party became completely radicalized, Democrats liked to use the condescending term "Voting against their own interests" to describe any group of people who generally voted Republican. Of course, aside from the EVIL super wealthy, everyone benefits for voting Democrat instead of Republican! Or so the story goes, anyway.

Some years back a popular mantra among The Left was "What's the matter with Kansas?", from the leftist screed of that title (read the reviews - the 1 & 2 star reviews confirm that the book is exactly what you'd expect). The bottom line of that phrase is that these stupid yokels from Flyover Country would rather have their stupid freedom and faith instead of the bliss that would have come had they simply not submitted as subjects to Big Government. You get silliness like this piece from 2016 in The Washington Compost about how Kansas' tax cuts were ruinous while California's tax increases led to Nirvana. That didn't age well. Or that somehow states that don't impose punishing taxes that drive out the wealthy (like Kansas) are against the working class. The map embedded in that 2015 article did not age well, either. While this is a tangent, it serves two purposes: 1) It shows how intellectually dishonest the "Voting against their interests" is, and 2) It let me clear out a few links to a topic I've wanted to write about for years and couldn't get into my schedule. Thanks for indulging me this paragraph, and back on topic.

Actually, that last paragraph was not that off topic. The "voting against your interests"  argument is quite relevant here. It's no secret that Jewish Americans swing predominantly Democrat. And I totally get the (however misguided) argument one Jewish friend gave back in the day as he honestly presented himself as "The bleeding hear Jewish Liberal". But that was then this is now. To recap events that have occurred since 10/7:

We get the Progressive Jewish Angst of having your beliefs upended.

American Jews never had to learn how to fight The Radical Left's Jew hatred.

Or maybe American Jews are feeling politically abandoned?

Jewish parents and students have to give some serious thought as to which colleges they might attend.

Of course, what did you think the kids formed by Leftist indoctrination would  grow into?

As much as I know this pains you, Donald Trump offers you some tough love.

I have one word for you: Exodus

I can go on, but you get the point. And I'll be unusually succinct in summing up your choices:
