#NY17 was a GOP flip; #NY18 a Dem hold both due to voters who Orthodox Jewish. #NY19 was a GOP flip due in part to Orthodox Jews.
Trump won 90% of this vote in 2020
Anyone who thinks running from Trump helps @HouseGOP's is clueless. It's passive at best; a negative at worst.

IN FACT: Trump's work on prison reform and his overall friendly approach to Orthodox Jews were used in favor of Republicans; certainly in #NY17. A leading Grand Rabbi in one of these districts criticized his flock post election as to how Trumpism overtook the Orthodox community!
In fact, Thursday AM, @lawler4ny (who won by a few thousand votes due to HUGE support among Orthodox Jews) said on CNN that the GOP should move on from Trump in '24.
At night he was at a Kosher Deli. He took incoming for saying it.
I was there. I heard it. From many people.

A district up North in #NY18, @PatRyanUC won narrowly after having net support among Orthodox Jews. His pitch to OJs wasn't that Trump is bad. Trump wasn't a topic. It would blow up in Ryan's face if that was his sale to voters who are OJ.
His record as UC Executive spoke.

The Dem-aligned national media are not interested in driving a narrative that helps Republicans, and the anti-Trump GOP Establishment is willing to blow up seats just to own Trump, so my on-the-ground feedback from #NY17, #NY18 and #NY19 will fall on deaf ears.
Great!
Great!
