Tony Blinken: "Why, you hook-nosed, Jew bastard! I told you to surrender and you ignore me and my president!

“You students are causing me electoral trouble! They are implying that I am anti-Semitic! I need the votes from Michigan and Minnesota! So knock off the protests against the hook-nosed, money grubbing, Christ killers!”
