Jexit?

I have been encouraged by the "Walk Away" and "Blexit" movements--gay people, black people, and others coming to realize that the left is not their friend but their enemy and walking away from it by ceasing to be knee-jerk Democratic voters.

These two movements make me think that we need to have a movement called "Jexit" for all the Jewish citizens of America who have been knee-jerk voters for the Democratic Party since FDR.

Leftism has supplanted Judaism as the religion of far too many Jews, often without their realizing it. The result is Jews supporting and voting for anti-Israel, anti-Semitic, and anti-liberal politicians who pretend to be for the common man and for equality and liberality and so on but who in fact have become tyrants of leftism, socialism, identity politics, and political correctness.

The latest form of this poison has been to blame President Trump instead of the anti-Semitic shooter for the recent massacre of Jews in a synagogue in Pittsburgh. This viciously false narrative is evidence of a complete collapse of reason, honesty, Jewish values, and common sense in the name of a mystically irrational hatred of Trump, who has, in fact, been the most Israel-friendly president in our history.

So let's invite those Jews who still are in possession of their faculty of reason and common sense to walk away from the left. Let's have JEXIT!
