Trump Vodka Is Having a Very Un-Kosher Scandal in Israel
Although presidential candidate Donald Trump styles himself a flaxen-haired business genius, his casinos went bankrupt, his magazine and airlines are now defunct, and his much-malignedline of steaks is no longer available—even if he did just recently throw a press conference for them. Worst of all, perhaps, is the latest news: Donald Trump’s vodka, which had barely held on as a viable business when it was given an unexpected second life in Israel because it was kosher for Passover, might have just lost the singular silver lining left in its playbook.
As the Jerusalem Post is reporting, the story begins in 2006, when Trump Vodka was born. Marketed in Trumpian style as “the world’s finest super premium” vodka and “the epitome of vodka,” the stuff was bottled in a—you guessed it—gilded bottle. And, yes, it had a motto: “Success Distilled.”
But—surprise, surprise—the vodka never really became successful in the US. In 2010, production was stopped after it failed “to meet threshold requirements.”

Oddly, that’s not the end of the story.
In 2011, a distributor in Israel decided to take a crack at selling the stuff there. That company found a new manufacturer to produce the vodka in Germany, and instead of making the vodka out of wheat (which is most typical), it made the vodka using different ingredients (like potatoes or molasses—what they actually used is unclear).
For those of you who might not be aware, observant Jews abstain from eating leavened foods or yeast on Passover. That includes all kinds of bread and, of course, wheat products. But Trump vodka, made from something other than wheat? L’chaim.
Five years later, it’s not as if Trump Vodka is a bestseller in Israel, but it’s popular around Passover because it is deemed “kosher for Passover.” Only problem: it turns out some bottles of Trump Vodka being sold certainly aren’t.
Last March, Badatz Igud Rabbonim, a kosher Certification organization, put out an alert: bottles of Trump Vodka labeled 2013 were not, in fact, kosher for Passover. “We discovered that instead of one of the ingredients that was supposed to be kosher for Passover, they used a different one,” said Rabbi David Silverstone of the OK Kosher certification organization.
The manufacturer has since changed the ingredients back to be in keeping with Passoverkashrut laws. But, beware: some of the old bottles remain in circulation in Israel. A reporter from the Jerusalem Post found three bottles of non-kosher Trump Vodka for sale recently, even though they said they were kosher for Passover.
All of this would almost make us feel sorry for Trump, if he weren’t such a… well, if he didn’t have such a… healthy self-esteem. In the meantime, may we suggest some wine for Passover? Mr. Trump has a winery—or maybe some mezcal would be a better choice.

This ended racial segregation in such places as schools, theatres, restaurants and the workplace.
"In parts of the South, the infrastructure is ... crumbling.
The Civil Rights Act led most of the White working class in the Southern states, and many of the White working class in the Northern states, to switch to the Republicans.

What matters for many Republicans is that their candidate supports God and Guns and opposes Gays.
Any mad Republican can be elected if he says he supports the Old Testament and supports six year olds carrying concealed weapons.

Many working class White Republicans in the USA are racist - and they will vote for any gangster who supports their racism.
In 1906, Madison Grant, a eugenicist and head of the New York Zoological Society, put Ota Benga on display at the Bronx Zoo in New York City.
Benga was displayed in a cage with the chimpanzees.
When Benga was out of the cage, he was often followed by a crowd "howling, jeering and yelling."[14]

Dr. Philip Emeagwali: Inventor of the World's Fastest Computer.
Emeagwali studied for a Ph.D. degree from the University of Michigan from 1987 through 1991.
His thesis was not accepted.
Emeagwali filed a court challenge, stating that the university had discriminated against him because of his race.
Dr Philip Emeagwali received the 1989 Gordon Bell Prize for an application of the CM-2 massively-parallel computer.
The application used computational fluid dynamics for oil-reservoir modelling.
His method involved each microprocessor communicating with six neighbours.[5]
Emeagwali's simulation was the first program to apply a pseudo-time approach to reservoir modeling.[1]
