The most recent poll shows 74% of Jewish voters disapprove of Trump’s job performance. Jews think Trump is ‘dangerous,’ ‘racist,’ ‘fascist’ and ‘antisemitic.’ Shortly before the November elections, President Donald Trump promised American Jews, “I will be the best friend Jewish Americans have ever had in the White House.” As president, he has moved to deport pro-Palestinian activists on college campuses and cut billions of dollars to elite universities for failing to combat antisemitism on campus. But a new poll out Wednesday (May 14) shows American Jewish voters are not impressed. The poll by GBAO Strategies, a longtime pollster of Jewish public opinion, shows that three-quarters of Jewish voters (74%) disapprove of Trump’s job performance (70% “strongly disapprove”). Most American Jews think Trump is “dangerous” (72%), “racist” (69%) and “fascist” (69%). Perhaps most tellingly, 52% of American Jewish voters think Trump is antisemitic. “The intensity of the opposition is extraordinary,” said Jim Gerstein, GBAO’s founding partner who summarized the poll’s results to reporters Tuesday. “This very high level of disapproval far exceeds what you see in the national population.”
