While old Jews are far more liberal than old Americans overall, young Jews are actually more conservative than young Americans overall.
30% of Jews under 30 approve of Trump compared to just 28% of *all* voters under 30.
And that's not even including Orthodox Jews.

There is a weird phenomenon where Jewish voters appear to be getting more conservative the younger they are, whereas gentile voters are the opposite.
Elderly Jews (65+) are ~30 points more liberal than their gentile peers, but young Jews are ~2 points more conservative.

I'm not sure how to explain this. I'd say it's because Democrats are becoming less pro-Israel, but young Jews care less about Israel than old Jews, and the latter has not abandoned Democrats.
Perhaps younger Jews more perceive that they're outside the New Intersectional Tent?
