It cannot be an easy sell. Elizabeth Pipko, a Jewish model who also claims to be Orthodox, has become the face of a US movement to persuade Jewish voters to vote for Donald Trump. 

Her work for the Jewish pro-Trump Exodus Movement has been an uphill battle, she told the Times of Israel in an interview. “They think that because I’m modelling in a swimsuit, I don’t believe in Hashem,” she said. 

However, her choice of career may not be the biggest obstacle to changing the minds of Jewish-Americans, who are, by and large, liberal. It is the fact that 70-80 per cent traditionally vote Democrat and, as a recent poll showed, around 60 per cent blame Mr Trump for what they perceive as a rise in antisemitism. 

Ms Pipko, 24 - married to Darren Centinello, director of social media strategy for Mr Trump’s 2020 election campaign - currently tours the US speaking to Jewish groups about why they should vote for the incumbent.

She told the Times of Israel: “Whether this changes the number in 2020 or not, I think there’s a need based on what’s going on,” adding that Orthodox Jews - the fastest growing group due to their high birth rate - were a ready constituency for Mr Trump: “Apart from my movement and apart from Donald Trump, the Conservative Jews and Reform Jews are shrinking in number, versus the Orthodox Jews, who are the ones multiplying and vote overwhelmingly Republican.”

She also said she faced abuse due to the work she was doing: “I get a lot of death threats, rape threats and other things I never thought I’d receive.”

She said: “People treat me [differently] because I came out as a conservative and a model. They think because I’m from New York and a Jew, I had to be a liberal. That made people be negative.

“People like to criticize in general when someone starts a new movement, especially if it’s a younger person. To come from modeling and say I’m going to make an impact on politics, I don’t blame them for treating me a certain way. I wish it was different. However, I’m totally fine proving myself to people.

She also said that the biggest misconception abot her was that “I don’t care about Judaism. A lot of people don’t think I keep kosher or go to synagogue. It’s not true at all. I pray every single day. I have a kosher house. I go to synagogue every Shabbat. All of these things matter to me.”
