What's this?

I’m Jewish, but I’d probably rank anti-constitution above all evils.

In a nation as big as ours, there will be anti-semites. And islamaphobes, and bigots of all kinds. It’s unavoidable.

The constitution is the insurance policy against pervasive persecution based on these moral failings. So that’s the thing to preserve first and foremost.
