jackk, I don’t think you’ll find anything in the Torah supporting what Trump did. You may not find anything against it either. Democracy isn’t in the Torah.
The Democratic Party, however, has made several things part of their core beliefs which are 100% opposed to the Torah. I refer to same-sex marriage and abortion. Same-sex marriage is ALWAYS assur, and is yehareg v’al yaavor. It falls under the arayos aveiros, and is therefore one of the sheva mitzvos b’nei Noach, so non-Jews are obligated to follow it. Abortion, too, is one of the seven – it falls under murder. While there are cases where an abortion may be permitted (namely, where the health of the mother or another baby in a multiple pregnancy is threatened), that is not the Democratic Part’s view – they want it legalized up until birth.
Supporting the Democratic Party is against Torah values. No, the Republicans aren’t perfect, but they don’t directly go against things like the Democrats do.
To answer the OP’s question, I think Democrats vs Hamas is similar to Chanukah vs Purim. Hamas wants to kill all the Jews, they don’t care how religious we are. Democrats want to stop us from following the Torah. We are told that Chanukah was a bigger danger, because it was spiritual, not physical. The same can apply here.
