'Great Question, Great Question'

'Great Question, Great Question'

' Well, I'm glad, Really glad, really, that you've asked that question.  Great question. Caught me by surprise, but what a great question.  Here, let me answer that in great detail as only I, the exalted Commander-In-Chief of the United States of America, the country that I, singlehandidly, have been ordained by God himself to "make Great Again".  “Well, I just want to say that we are, you know, very honored by the victory that we had: 306 Electo...ral College votes,” Trump said. “We were not supposed to crack 220. You know that, right? There was no way to 221, but then they said there’s no way to 270.” “we are going to have peace in this country,” I'm also going to stop crime, and “long-simmering racism and every other thing that’s going on.” Hey, by the way, you've probably heard of my daughter Ivanka, you should try her clothing and jewelery brand, it's all made over seas, you Know, China, places like that, she's making lots of money, and her family ― including her husband, Jared Kushner, a senior adviser to the president ― who are Orthodox Jews?   So you 'see', I love Jewish folks, great people, They love me, love the food, wonderful Matza Balls, they have a really nice 'wall' there.  I think they need a golf course there, but maybe later on.  My 'brand' is really getting big numbers worldwide.  I wish I'd had this gig a long time ago! Mexico's Still gonna pay for My 'wall'.  One way or the Other.  I'll border tax'em to death, no matter who it hurts!
So there.   I hope I've answered your question so that you won't have to lose any more sleep over it.  By the way, no more questions from You.  You're done here.  You're fired!  Who let this guy in??   Everyone please rise and bow.  I'm outta here, but "you ain't seen nothing yet" '.

Donald Trump Brags About Electoral College Votes (Again) When Asked About Anti-Semitism

“306 Electoral College votes.”

President Donald Trump responded to a question about the rise of anti-Semitism by bragging about the Electoral College votes he won in the 2016 election.
Trump was asked about the increase in open displays of anti-Semitism and xenophobia in the U.S. during a joint press conference with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Wednesday. An Israeli reporter asked what Trump would say to those in the Jewish community who “believe and feel that your administration is playing with xenophobia and maybe racist tones.”
“Well, I just want to say that we are, you know, very honored by the victory that we had: 306 Electoral College votes,” Trump said. “We were not supposed to crack 220. You know that, right? There was no way to 221, but then they said there’s no way to 270.”
Trump went on to say that “we are going to have peace in this country,” vowing to stop crime and “long-simmering racism and every other thing that’s going on.” He also mentioned his daughter Ivanka and her family ― including her husband, Jared Kushner, a senior adviser to the president ― who are Orthodox Jews.
Trump has repeatedly bragged about his election win since November, calling his Electoral College victory “historic” (it wasn’t) and saying he would have won the popular vote in more states had it not been for so-called voter fraud, though there is no evidence to support that claim.
Many reporters covering the 2016 election faced a constant barrage of anti-Semitic attacks from Trump supporters, and reports of anti-Semitic, racist and anti-immigrant incidents increased in schools in the weeks after Trump won the election.
Anti-Semitism was prevalent throughout Trump’s presidential campaign. In July 2016, he tweeted a blatantly anti-Semitic image to attack his rival, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. The closing ad of his campaign featured anti-Semitic overtones. And Trump has surrounded himself with aides and advisers known for espousing anti-Semitic views.
Trump embraced an anti-Semitic slogan in his inaugural address, using the phrase “America first” even after the Anti-Defamation League, a nonprofit that fights against anti-Semitism and other forms of bigotry, asked him not to.
