Like Puerto Ricans

Why Don’t Jews and Asian-Americans Like the Republican Party?

American Jews, Milton Himmelfarb wrote 60 years ago, “earn like Episcopalians and vote like Puerto Ricans.” Jewish Republicans have spent most of the time since then alternating between hopeful predictions that this anomaly would cease, and bitter recriminations as to why it persists. In recent years, Asian-Americans have joined Jews as a demographic curiosity, voting far more heavily Democratic than their aggregate income profile would suggest. Republican staffers Lanhee Chen and Tevi Troy have an op-ed in today’s Wall Street Journal that falls into the latter category, puzzling over the stubborn tendency of their brethren to forsake the GOP. Their answer is the insidious propaganda of the elite universities they attend.
...
It is true that Jews and Asians are more likely than most groups to belong to the highest-earning one percent, which Republicans lavish with tax cuts whenever they gain power. It is also true that academia tends to lean far to the left of America as a whole. But the notion that Jews and Asians are suppressing their natural agreement with the party of Donald Trump in order to impress some liberal professor is wildly at odds with the actual forces at work in American politics.
...
Over the last several decades, the Republican Party may have been harnessed to a policy agenda that caters to the affluent, but its political coalition has been anchored to a cohesive ethno-nationalistic bloc of white Christians opposed to cultural change. Its political style is visceral rather than intellectual — think George W. Bush dismissing Al Gore’s statistics about his tax-cut plan by joking that his opponent “invented the calculator,” or any of the words that came out of Sarah Palin’s mouth, or, of course, Trump. The modern Republican Party has alienated people with higher education levels, not because they are sucking up to their liberal English professor, but because they expect politicians to consider science and evidence in their policymaking. The entire liberal wing of the Republican Party has defected. (Indeed, Episcopalians these days now vote like Puerto Ricans, too.)

Это, разумеется, вранье.

В случае евреев - это 150-летняя привычка к социализму.
Видимо, имеющая корни в религии.

Азиаты - ну, пропаганда же.
Тотальная.
Вон, в РФ 85%.
