What's this?

When asked if calling for genocide against

Jewish people would violate school policy, the president’s said it would depend on the context. It’s a bullshit, mealy mouthed answer.

Now do I think lupos actually gives a shit about antisemitism? Never heard him say boo about the people at Trump rallies wearing 6MWE and camp aucshwitz shirts. Or the Nazis that marched on Charlottesville chanting “Jews will not replace us” or the president who called out the “very fine people” marching with them (not the Nazis of course, but the people marching with the Nazis).

This is an opportunity for him to (justifiably) criticize someone on the left side of the political spectrum. God forbid he call out the endless supply of antisemitism on the right.
