Jennifer Rubin gives us goys a break, and a laugh, by explaining just how many Jewish toes got stepped on by Donald “Big Belly” Trump when the Donald decided he wouldn’t be moving the American embassy to Israel to Jerusalem, as he had promised that he really, really would.
As Rubin notes, it’s pretty much standard practice for presidential candidates to promise to move the embassy to Jerusalem as a ritual kowtow to the power of AIPAC, as if to say “you’re so powerful you can make me say something we both know is stupid.” But of course Donald had to top that. “Those other guys, they’re all talk, all show and no go. Read my lips: DONALD TRUMP DELIVERS!”
Except, not this time. And, as a topper, he delivered this pathetic walk-back on [wait for it] “Shavuot”, which, Jennifer informs us, is “one of four so-called festival holidays in the Jewish calendar, which were originally marked by a pilgrimage to the temple in [wait for it] Jerusalem.”
Ba-da-bing!
