Please be cautious with these kind of comments. It’s too easy for them to slide into an anti-antisemitism that that would denigrate the faith of people like our own “Viscous Babushka.” His twisting of the faith of his ancestors (especially if he really believes he is NOT doing so) is not representative of, for example, that of the vast majority of orthodox Jews. Christians have spent 2000 years sinning in this way; those of you who wish to split from us need to avoid this sin as well.

I see your point but A.) People are dying so the shabbos exception of preserving life applies and B.) he’s been assigned by his father in law the President as the person who is going to solve the Palestinian Israel conflict. I read it as calling out his established hypocrisy of breaking the rule whenever it’s politically expedient to fly or campaign while probably not working the phones today when it might actually conceivably save a life.
