Seeing some stuff online saying the Amish and Jews coming out for Trump in Pennsylvania, Ohio, and New York is huge. What do you guys think of this?

I've read that they rarely vote, but don't know for sure.

With the Amish, Jews, and Farrakhan on board how can we lose? But I thought the Amish do not vote?

The recent Covid lockdown crackdowns on Religious gatherings by the Dem Govenors and Mayors in the NE are spurring this.
The communist thug mayor of NYC (Deblazzio) rounding up orthodox jews ala Stalin or Hitler is NOT a good look for the "Democratic" party.

My Mennonite tax dude said they don't get involved politically around these parts. Being business men, farmers, and cattle folks here they probably would support The Donald if they did.

They're showing up at rallys and having parades. My guess is, a bunch of them are voting this year.

They are very conservative.. Even if the do live in a sort of commune society. My guess the whole transgender thing is a big put off for them... I don't think that Trans-anything fits "in God's image" by any stretch....

Ours are not old order types. The wimmins still wear the long skirts and a bonnet, but other than that it's hard to know the men are Mennonite. And their scattered all over the area, not just in one place. They have some nice hay fields and small cattle operations.
But yes, they probably don't get the transgender stuff at all.
Or sex, drugs and rock and roll either.
Well, maybe the sex thing, they sure do seem to spit our kids pretty regular

Perhaps they're voting out of concern for this country not becoming a socialist chit hole like Kamala would turn it into.

If they don’t vote, they should.

If the Amish decide to vote it's only because they don't want anyone else assuming their position as the biggest fleecers of this country.
But like most civic responsibilities, I'm sure they'll sit at home and leave it to white people to handle.

I just asked an Amish, and she said they are praying for Trump, but not really voting. I said in the south of the state, lancaster they were voting, and they had trump signs on buggies. She said that is news to her. I talked to her many times, so I could tell she was sincere. I actually thought she was a recent import from Lancaster so I thought she should know about the Trump buggies..

I saw a few behind him at one of his PA rallies on TV. I thought they might be "Amish Lite" Mennonites.
