> Former Daily Beast columnist Justin Baragona appeared to agree, writing, “Now we’re at the point where Trump world is deciding who the Good and Bad Jews are.” At the point? We’ve been past the point for a while. There’s two kinds of Jews in MAGAland, the Jews who are good with money (which includes doctors and the like) and the Jews that killed Christ. ---

You can always wipe out the Jews who are good with money when you don’t have the funds to pay back what you borrowed from them. There’s plenty of historical precedent. ---

And remember, folks, the proper response to a sputtering, “I’m not weird, _you’re_ weird” is to point and laugh. No arguing or explaining why. Just derisive laughter. ---

I’m sorry, but Trump has been dealt enough “fatal blows” to wipe out all of Eastern Europe and it doesn’t seem to do him much harm. ---

Never heard of Tim Pool before, but checked Wikipedia. “8th grade dropout with a podcast” sounds about right. ---

And I agree that this won’t be a big deal in the election. It may drive a few Jewish swing voters into the Harris camp, but the MAGA Jews probably agree with him. ---

Raw Story tends to be hyperbolic with their headlines and mix in articles like “Commentator Eviscerates Trump on X” that are more gossip than news, but they’re a useful source for finding out what insane thing Republicans are saying on any given day.
