The Trump presidency has resulted in a fundamentally disruptive moment in this nations political culture. Not only were there different policy options and directions, but the cultural artifacts of politics changed because of how this president dramatically challenged the existing norms of political behavior and action. As we have shifted from a period of American liberalism to a time of political populism, deep fissures are dividing Americans in general and Jews in particular.The Impact of the Presidency of Donald Trump on American Jewry and Israel unpacks President Donald Trumps distinctive and unique relationship with the American Jewish community and the State of Israel. Addressing the various dimensions of his personal and political connections with Jews and Israel, this publication is designed to provide an assessment of how the Trump presidency has influenced and altered American Jewish political behavior. Writers from different backgrounds and political orientations bring a broad range of perspectives designed to examine various aspects of this presidency, including Trumps particular impact on Israel-US relations, his special connection with Orthodox Jews, and his complex and uneven relationship with Jewish Republicans.For liberal American Jews, these four years represented a fundamental revolution, overturning and challenging much that a generation of activists had fought to achieve and protect. For Trumps supporters, it afforded them an opportunity to advance their priorities, while joining the forty-fifth president in changing the American political landscape. The Trump effect will extend well beyond his four-year tenure, creating an environment that has fomented the politics of hate and exposed a deeply embedded presence of anti-Semitism. How Americans understand this moment in time and the ways society will adapt can be reflected through the prism of the Jewish encounter with Trumpism that this volume seeks to explore.

Foreword
We are still at an early point in making any full assessment of the presidency of Donald J. Trump. It is not too early, however, to make some preliminary observations about the impact his four years in office has had on American Jews and Israel. The writers assembled here were contacted two years ago by volume editor Steven Windmueller and represent voices across the political spectrum, ensuring that the relationship between the Trump presidency and American Jews is presented from a wide cross-section of opinion and analysis.
Since assuming the directorship of the Casden Institute six years ago, my goal has been to create programs and publications that shed light, not heat, on topics at the forefront of American Jewish culture and identity. To that end, we have assembled a volume that presents a multitude of viewpoints ranging from staunch Trump defenders to equally staunch Trump critics. Our contributors include academics, journalists, lobbyists, activists, and pollsters who represent a spectrum of opinions on the 45th presidents impact on the national and international level. We asked only one thing from our authors: write what you wish but treat those on the other side of your argument with respect. I believe we have achieved this goal and it is my hope that our readers will appreciate the diversity of views that makes this a truly unique publication.
I wish to thank our volume editor, Steven Windmueller, for the hard work he has put in assembling such an impressive array of voices willing to write critically about the last four years. My thanks also go to Marilyn Lundberg Melzian, our wonderful longtime volume production editor.

Editorial Introduction
by Steven F. Windmueller
Any effort that seeks to unpack a unique political moment in time, even as this period is still unfolding, represents a significant challenge. This book is precisely about capturing a particular phenomenon, Donald Trumps impact on the American political story and the US-Israel relationship. His counter-cultural performance reflected his uniqueness, as his Presidency would uproot many of core norms and practices of contemporary politics. His American nationalism would run counter to the traditions of American political culture in the post-Second World War era. Nor is Trumps imprint complete as he continues to be a force both within the Republican Party and beyond. His politics have unleashed a new style of activism and behavior that is likely to have a significant impact on the American political psyche well beyond his presence.
In many ways this book project represents a snapshot in time as we try to unravel the imprint of a President on our nation in general, and more directly its Jewish community. Each of the contributors to this venture came to the project with a particular perspective and that is as it should be, for surely Donald Trump leaves no one without a defining judgment.
I am grateful to the Casden Institute, its director Professor Steven J. Ross and to its associate director Lisa Ansell, for their willingness to tackle this controversial and complex subject matter and their personal encouragement and support in completing this initiative. Similarly, I am particularly appreciative to Purdue University Press, its director, Justin C. Race, graphic
Christopher J. Brannan, and especially to copyeditor, Marilyn Lundberg Melzian of USC, for their professional guidance and input.
Our writers represent a diversity of viewpoints. Accordingly, our goal was to identify the multiplicity of voices that reflected the range of reaction both inside the Jewish community and from Israel in connection with the 45th President.
My appreciation extends to each of these individuals for offering their reflections and insights. Together this volume, I believe, represents some of the primary thinking about the Trump Presidency.
American academics such as Michael Berenbaum, Gilbert Kahn, Dan Schnur, Saba Soomekh, and Gary Zola provide their respective insights on this four-year time frame, drawing from their distinctive disciplines and their respective research expertise. Employing modern Jewish history, Professor Berenbaum explores this President against the backdrop of anti-Semitism, the Shoah, and other defining contemporary moments, while offering a deeply personal perspective on the Trump Presidency. Dr. Gilbert Kahn adds the important dimension of the distinctive role played by American Jewish Orthodoxy in connection with this President. Dr. Saba Soomekh, who combines her expertise as a communal professional with her social science and academic credentials, introduces some critical observations about how Donald Trump was received by an array of different Jewish audiences, including the Persian community. Professor Dan Schnur, a prominent columnist and academic, shares some insights on how this Presidency played out for independent voters. My HUC colleague, Professor Gary Zola shares an important and insightful historical perspective in connection with our 45th President.
Israeli political scientist, Ehud Eiran, adds his own particular orientation as he explores the unique and significant relationship that this President enjoyed with the State of Israel and with Israeli society.
Indeed, the particular contribution of Mark Mellman, one of this nations most prominent political researchers and public opinion experts, adds an additional important layer of statistical and analytical data to this conversation.
The Forwards National Editor, Rob Eshman, provides a journalistic assessment of how this President was covered, analyzed and understood by the Anglo-Jewish media.
