lol don't be ridiculous, American Jews are even proud of their over-representation in socially liberal, left-wing causes.
From US presidential approval ratings in 2009 (Obama’s approval in the Jewish community is holding steady at 62 percent. Gallup reported 64 percent
approval rating in an October 2009 poll. Obama’s approval rating among Jews is 15 points higher than
among all Americans) http://jstreet.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/JStreetMarch2010PollRelease_FINAL.pdf to 2016 (According to exit polls, 71% of American Jews voted Democrat during the 2016 US Presidential election), the affinity of Jews in the USA for the left is well-noted
here, even is a nice book for you by well-known american jewish politologue Norman Podhoretz on 'Why are Jews liberal?' - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Why-Jews-Liberals-Norman-Podhoretz-x/dp/0307456250
However, worth noting that the opposite is the case in Israel since the 1980's as being in the pressure cooker has encouraged patriotism and national identity to naturally assert itself - https://www.timesofisrael.com/young-israeli-jews-are-mostly-right-wing-increasingly-religious-survey/
For sure, I have met many Israelis who sympathise with right-wing patriot parties in Europe, even of the ethnic variety as long as not literal Nazi of course. But very few of those people around any more. What leftists take for Nazis are just people with a strong sense of tribalism, which exists everywhere from China to India to Kenya to Serbia
Basically because they always have been. Normon Podhoretz has a book on the subject. http://www.amazon.com/Why-Jews-Liberals-Norman-Podhoretz/dp/0307456250
In the last 20 years, we have slowly but surely been shifting right.
