Fowler said that many of her Jewish friends \u201cworry about the general sentiment of intolerance in the Republican campaign.\u201d Rabbi Jason Kimelman-Block, who is closely following the New Hampshire race, including Jewish sentiment, from Washington as director of the Bend the Arc Jewish Action organization, said, \u201cPeople are trying to hold candidates responsible for demonizing rhetoric, particularly Trump. Jews across the spectrum recognize Trump as a demagogue.\u201d<br \/>\nDespite negative Jewish reaction to Trump\u2019s statements on immigration, Israel and other subjects, some still expect that the small number of Jewish voters in the New Hampshire Republican primary will support him at the same rate as the rest of electorate. Geoffrey Skelley, a political analyst with Larry Sabato\u2019s Crystal Ball project at the University of Virginia Center for Politics, said voter research suggests Jewish Republicans often vote the same way as non-Jewish GOP voters. Efforts to find this slice of New Hampshire\u2019s small Republican Jewish electorate, however, came up empty.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I assure you that most Orthodox Jews do not fear Donald Trump and most of them will vote Trump in the general election.
