ā€œThe baby will have an uncanny resemblance to me, including thin hair, small fingers and it will holler easily when displeased.ā€

@Jeffgee1 If he could just shake off his white supremacist supporters, heā€™d really turn those heads, though his impulse will be to show them heā€™s also circumcised.

He received a seeded bagel with schmear one time from that deli on Fifth Avenue, and heā€™s always remembered it fondly.

ā€œI love the people in this room. I love Israel. I love Israel. Iā€™ve been with Israel so long in terms of ā€” Iā€™ve received some of my greatest honors from Israel,ā€ Trump said at the end of his speech. ā€œMy father before me, incredible. My daughter, Ivanka, is about to have a beautiful, Jewish baby.ā€

What the hell are you trying to say here, Donald? What honors have you received from Israel? I just canā€™t figure it out ā€“ how do you feel about Israel?

Ivanka converted to Orthodox Judaism. Sheā€™s Jewish.

His daughter converted to Judaism through an Orthodox Jewish conversion (I believe right before she married her Jewish husband)ā€¦so in that light, sheā€™s considered a Jew within the entire Jewish community.

Wait, so he didnā€™t say anything about his high hopes for the childā€™s business acumen given its Jewishness? Heā€™s slipping.

Exactly!

He might be a Democrat and according to Wiki contributed over $100,000 to various campaigns between 1992 and 2006, but according to reporting in August

The younger Mr. Kushner has been making calls on behalf of his father-in-law to try to rally support, according to people briefed on that outreach.

The elder Mr. Kushner, an old friend of Mr. Trumpā€™s and a fellow real estate magnate, gave $100,000 to a super PAC supporting him, according to POLITICO.

Thatā€™s the strangeness I have with anyone in that audience clapping for that ignoramous. I canā€™t stand the rightwing politics of AIPAC but the idea that Drumpf has attracted all manner of racists, bigots and religious charlatans would have left many with a foul taste in their mouths if they had paid the least bit of attention. Nowadays AIPAC is unfortunately also filled with rightwing preachers and their flock demanding fealty to Israelā€™s rightwing political wing, Christian Zionists, and American Islamophobes with an absolute fear-mongering towards Iran.

I hope Sanders and Clinton address J Street where they should make an appearance to address the more dovish leftwing ideas on peace in the Middle East.
