The Jewess Patriot – Midterm Election 2026 Warning – Don’t Support Benchwarmers

Jews Beware of Benchwarmers – Midterm Elections 2026

A word to the wise for American Jews – get over wasting millions of dollars on Eric Adams (primary) and Election Day loses for both Andrew Cuomo and Jack Ciattarelli. Social media content creators can stop reposting each other.

We have serious work to do within the next 12 months!

We can not rely on political benchwarmers – a substitute who rarely gets to play in a game in sports or someone picked by the party chairs to fill a seat they feel in not winnable, especially in blue states, in Jewish populated areas within these states.

We have been fed these minor league players for decades. Worse, many are repeated by the party for lack of respect for that campaign or organization, but we are demanded and expected to finance and support them.

This strategy has gotten us nowhere-in fact has hurt us with officials who don’t like us but attend our Chanukah lightings, annual award breakfasts and tweet immediately after an antisemitic attack under their leadership that doesn’t act before someone is hurt.

As much as we all love Israel, and those on all sides support Israel even if their opposition doesn’t see it, we have a problem at home to address.

American Jewish Survival

It’s no secret that I am a Republican.  I do believe in voting down ballot, and I do stress the importance of local elections.  Google me if you don’t believe me.

As antisemitism is front and center of both extremes of the two major political parties and 2026 elections will determine control of both the House of Representatives and Senate, and ultimately the ability of President Trump to run an effective government through 2028, all Jews must get educated, engaged and eligible to vote!

I am old enough to remember learning about checks and balances in government in high school.  Perhaps we need to emphasize it in high school curriculum again.

One of the few consistent voices in Congress from New York, Richie Torres, is facing a primary filled with antisemitic opponents getting attention and donations from international Jew haters.

A popular platform for candidates is to formally declare that they won’t accept any donations from AIPAC (not necessarily the most partisan pro-Israel PAC in America).  Republican incumbent Congressman Tom Massie and “moderate” Democrat Congressman Seth Moulton are two distancing themselves and making headlines. There is a clear pattern for 2026 campaign slogans and agendas-Jews don’t matter!

American Jews Do Count

Most American Jews are not Wall Street tycoons or Hollywood power players.  They are middle class legal voters who pay taxes and thrive for success.  They educate themselves and their children and participate in community causes and promote local businesses with recommendations and purchasing power.

They want to feel safe on their streets and have the ability to pay bills, even enjoy a vacation and put away some money for retirement.  They like to assimilate within their neighborhoods and advocate for every timely concern, from health to education to social and political causes.

Both political parties have to ensure this!

Many Jews are rightfully angry and confused.  They feel betrayed by politicians.  Worse, they feel Jewish leadership from religious institutions and nonprofit organizations aren’t leading.  They feel that donations go nowhere and gatherings like galas and rallies are pointless.

Jews need an intervention.  They need a reality check.  Stop pointing out our differences of religious practices and start uniting for the most important cause-our survival in America.

Jews need to stop labeling each other before they expect others to favor them.

Stop Relying on Others!

Be a partisan not a bystander and start working (not just talking) together!

Not happy with current organized leadership-start informal parlor meetings.  Build local coalitions centered around feasible solutions to popular problems.  Working together locally does wonders.

It could be as simple as volunteering a food bank  where many non Jewish people donate time and would like Christmas off.  It could be spending hours leading meetings or checking books at the local library.  Even two hours a week.  Library budgets and boards are always discussed around election time, but do you realize just how influential the public library is to a community?

Veterans and seniors always need assistance and voices for advocacy- and two groups where Jews fit into community activism.

Is It Germany 1933?

Too many of the few remaining Holocaust survivors claim that a new Holocaust is closer than many want to admit.  I hear the same from children of survivors no longer alive to share their own experiences.

Are we going to make the wrong choices, stay silent and uninformed, share useless information through rusty tools or wake up, gather together and start from scratch to make positive change.  I know which category I fall into-but I can’t do it alone!
