I will say Republicans tend to react worse than Democrats. If what I’ve seen by protestors at AOC town halls happened in a Trump rally they would have been thrown out.

Thanks for this going to save it next time someone tries to prove they are Jewish with DNA. Same way people do with Indigenous DNA. So frustrating.

But someone like me with 1.4% Ashkenazi isn’t going to claim being Jewish if raised Catholic and has no real connection to the ethnicity/religion.

I think so as long as you are very distant and not at all approaching him as a threat. At the AOC town halls protesters come calling her things all the time and don’t get thrown out unless there is an immediate threat.

The murky part though is many Iberian descending people like Latinos have some very distant Jewish ancestry because persecuted Jews fled to the new world. Now this is mostly Spanish ancestry but Portuguese ancestry can have the tiniest amount of Ashkenazi DNA too. Almost 1/4 of Latinos have Jewish DNA.
I totally see him pulling a Warren and finding 0.5% and using that as a told you so. Meanwhile I’m 1.4% and I would never in my life claim to be Jewish cause I actually know what it means to be Jewish. Same reason I’m 59% indigenous by DNA but also wouldn’t claim to be Native American.

Ok but the original comment i was responding to was that there is an extradition treaty. They said there wasn't.
Whether it happens or not is another conversation. That's a debate on how Biden and Lula would handle it.

But this is the other way around. Brazil is asking for the USA to give Santos back. Santos isn't in danger of the death penalty.
If the USA was asking for Santos then Brazil can say no cause of the death penalty.

Only hope is Brazil issues warrant for his arrest although I'm sure the Republicans will still try to find a loophole.

we have a treaty with Brazil

I normally am a very big advocate of not speculating about someone's sexual orientation but with these many lies you have to start questioning everything he has said about himself, especially cause we was married to a woman just a few weeks before running.

Sort of. There is no warrant for his arrest but hopefully this leads to a warrant cause then they can extradite him to Brazil cause I believe we have an interpol agreement with Brazil.

Just the other day one had to back out in Astoria cause he tried to turn onto a narrow residential. Cops were right down the block ordering food from the truck without a care.

Oh I know. Just saying I can see him doing this. I have 1.4% but would never identify as Jewish because 1) I def don’t meet the Jewish standard and 2) that would be soooo disingenuous

Watch him take a DNA test, have 1% Ashkenazi DNA, then double down like Warren when she claimed to be Native American.
Edit: not sure why the downvotes… im not claiming you are Jewish if you have any Jewish DNA. It doesn’t work like that. I was just saying this lying asshole would be one of those to try to claim it.

Trump used to be featured in NYC movies and shows. Business people knew he was scummy but the media knew that Trump was still seen as a symbol of NYC and had him on Home Alone and mentioned him in Friends.
NYC now HATES him across the board. But there was a time when Trump and NYC association wasn't a bad thing to the public.

My roommate got lucky and got a 212 for like 50 back in like 2014. It was cause he runs a business and wanted the 212 but he probs wouldn’t have paid more than 100 for it.
