Shylock was a fictional CHARACTER , who happened to be Jewish, in a DRAMA written hundreds of years ago by WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE of England.
This 80 year old Jew absolutely doubts that Joe Biden knows a single thing about the “words” I capitalized.
In fact, I bet that no more than 2% of Americans below the age of 50 know that Shylock was originally a person’s name, and NOT the label given to a “loan shark”. Especially if they went to American schools.
