Dr Pepper,
I wrote a long response that I still have but I want to make it easier to discuss.
Please tell me what other Lo Taaseh’s do the Republican party follow besides abortion (with a lot of push back regarding mother’s life,incest,age, and rape) and gay marriage (with no push to actually penalize them) ?
Even abortion is completely erased by their position on Guns. “Guns for you, and Guns for You and Guns for everyone.”
What Positive commandments in the spirit of “Only this was the sin of your sister Sodom: arrogance! She and her daughters had plenty of bread and untroubled tranquility; yet she did not support the poor and the needy.” does the Republican Party follow?
What about Avoda Zara ? Aver min Hachay? White Collar Gezeila ? Other forms of Giluy Arayos?
If the republicans (or Jews who vote exclusively for them) want to live in Saudi Arabia, Qatar or Iran they are welcome to go there and find out what it means to live under Shariah Law.
If you want don’t want the American government restricting your rights to live as a frum , shomer shabbos Yid, then you have to realize that we are in Golus America surrounded by Shivim Zeevim.
