Yes agree 99.9%
Though a few quick points
– emphasis on “Overall”
– and I’m going with your definition of “Orthodox/Torah Jews” which is a bit narrower than mine – (yet another example of the black/white thinking you suffer from )
– “since Orthodox/Torah Jews missed the boat by not seeing that Democrats and liberals are better than Republicans and conservatives.” – I didnt quite say this last part. I have no problem with a person thinking Trump is better because xyz. Its the narrow thoughtless parroting that bothers me. As in the example I cited.
– Make no mistake many Democrat supporters suffer from the same narrow goupthink. and label anyone who votes for another party as automatically evil/misogynist/racist etc . but a. that wasn’t your question, b. I hang out more with the group you asked about so I am more familiar with that group

My point is similar to Yesrbiu’s above
