Mainly because he was on the Democratic tickets, but also bcause he's black and supports gay marriage, among other reasons. Why should they care about health insurance, immigrants, or the Iran deal?
Its a long established practice that Chassidim, whose religious views are in line with right wing groups, vote Republican in presidential elections.

Agree with Maya that chassidim usually vote Republican.
I don't know of a single chassid (in my circle ) that voted for Obama.

Chassidim are not all anti-Israel, for starters. |
But ALL of Trumps supporters are uneducated and racists who prefer bombastic statements over real leadership... Talk about blanket statements.

Right... that's why I said talk about blanket statements. This thread is full of them, including some of my own.

If they don't care about health insurance, illegal aliens, or Iran/Israel then why should they care about gay rights or black people? And what do they care about?
