David Frum : It’s no secret that this past year hasn’t been good for Jews in general.

But Donald Trump is doing better with Jews than any Republican has in a long time, Frum says.

Jews are among the most reliable Democratic voters of any ethnicity aside from Black and Latino Americans .

Israel was the only putatively democratic nation that preferred Trump to Obama , Clinton and Biden .

Donna Brazile : Jewish groups treat anti-Zionism as identical to antisemitism.

She says the majority of American Jews are uncomfortable with Israel ’s actions in Gaza and the West Bank .

Brazile says Harris has been forced to walk a tightrope between pro-Israeli Jews and pro-Palestinian Muslims .

Abe Foxman , former longtime CEO of the Anti-Defamation League , called out his former colleagues for their cowardice.

“If this happened six months ago , they would be out there condemning racism and antisemitism and hate speech,” he said.

Let’s hope it doesn’t last past Tuesday .
