> What do you imagine Lloyd Blankfein CEO of Gold Man Sacks gave Chelsea Clinton whose husband is business partners with Blankfein for her baby shower? Bundles of unmarked 100 dollar bills? Did he run into Hillary at the baby shower? Is there an equivalent to a Godfather in the Jewish religion and will CEO Lloyd Blankfein of Gold Man Sacks serve in that capacity so that he will conveniently run into Hillary? Speaking of man sacks, how many Wall Street leaders be at the bris?

You are claiming that there is no specifically Jewish slant to PCP’s remarks?

And the Drumpf remarks are not mocking German heritage, but are a reaction to his specific attack on another person for a change to his name. German, Irish, or Mandarin would not have been the point of those comments.
