And on Wednesday, some Orthodox Jews took their support for Trump
to the next level, traveling to Washington to participate in the Trump
rally that turned into a mob.
Some of the Orthodox Jewish Trump supporters
who attended even traveled to the rally on specially chartered buses
from Orthodox Jewish communities, some of which were organized in
special WhatsApp groups. One person who attended the rally said there
were at least eight buses to Washington organized by Orthodox Jews.
Groups
were formed for people from Monsey, New York, and Lakewood, New Jersey,
two areas with large Orthodox populations. Two buses were reportedly
chartered from Brooklyn.
Orthodox
Jews were present at the rally where President Trump spoke Wednesday,
telling the crowd to “walk down to the Capitol” and that “you will never
take back our country with weakness.” But many Orthodox Trump
supporters condemned the violence that followed when protesters stormed
the capitol.
