The 2020 Election has been Terrible for the Jews
No matter who ultimately wins the presidential election, the Jews in America are the big losers.

Jew-hatred is generally low in healthy, working democracies. If we learned nothing else from the election campaign and its aftermath, we learned American democracy is in crisis.- Friday, November 13, 2020
