re: #265 lawhawk

Why tell an ethnic joke when one of the Administration’s goals is to show that this Administration is culturally and ethnically sensitive (trying to improve US image around the world). Making a joke that is tasteless about Jewish stereotypes isn’t exactly the way to do it.

But the part that is most curious is that the WH has apparently cut that joke out of its transcript - knowing perhaps that it isn’t exactly in good taste?

Starting the joke with “I’d like to begin with a story that I think is true” didn’t help either.
