JACQUELINE ALEMANY CBS NEWS April 8, 2016 "Kosher" Trump Vodka Lands In Hot Water

Well, apparently neither does the kosher liquor company that Donald Trump rented his name to.

Trump Vodka, the product of yet another licensing deal under Trump's name, was founded in 2006 and distributed by a company called Drinks Americas, the Jerusalem Post reports. Despite the Trumpian catchphrase "Success Distilled," distribution of the drink came to an end in 2011.

But when an independent importer saw an opportunity for the drink to enjoy a fruitful afterlife in Israel, Trump agreed to a new deal allowing H. Pixel International to distribute the Trump-branded booze in the Holy Land.

But according to the Jerusalem Post, it turns out that some Trump Vodka was made with chametz, a leavened food product forbidden on Passover, and not made with a grain alternative, such as potatoes or molasses.

Did CW or 2DV pass you the baton now? Is that it? You’re the final relay in the run now?

We’ll see you in November when that big dump truck of STFU shows up on your doorstep.

Exactly. Trump signs 22k paychecks on the FRONT. Ted blabs about Trump’s checkbook - when he signed one of those checks on the BACK! Now Ted signs elitist establishment checks on the BACK!

It isn't even his Company, it a Licensed Product.

I think of Chuck Woolery pushing Australian Pain Relief Cream and Fonzie pushing Reverse Mortgages. Neither of them own the Companies but the are using their fame to endorse the products.

I would assume the Company involved violated the Contract agreement since they didn't produce what they told Trump they were manufacturing, Kosher Vodka. (which I never heard of) All I remember is Manachevits (sic) Wine. LOL

Call it a gentile oversight. The old Trump vodka was, per modern keeping of ritual Jewish law, probably kosher for everyday use, only not for Passover. Jews who are actually serious about observing these ritual laws, will double check matters like this, and not just assume a kosher vodka means year round. Trump did nothing wrong except not researching his marketplace as well as he could have. The new Trump vodka is now considered compliant with ritual Jewish law year around, except you still shouldn’t drink it on a fast day (hey nobody’s perfect).

70%? More common core math.

He’s at 42%, so 58% hates America. Even more can’t stand the Cuban blobfish.

About 70% of the general electorate say the same thing about Trumpkins.

And yet Trump is still kicking Lyin’ Ted’s butt in delegates; who would’ve thunk it?

Nothing positive to post about slimy Ted today?

I’d also be curious what they are calling “general electorate.” Likely voters per old formulae? A lot of Trump’s polling charm has arisen among people who had given up voting or had never voted despite being eligible.

And also... votes in hypothetical Hillary/Donald contests are on the basis of a tabula rasa. They haven’t really attacked one another yet.

“Can you *possibly* be more effin’ pathetic? “

What happened to Free Republic, which used to be a conservative site for exchange of ideas. It used to have intelligent, civil and objective conservatives. Now the Trump Kool Aiders have infiltrated using Alinsky tactics, Black Lives Matter dialogue, irrational analysis and bully boy mentalities. Up your buckets and create your own site.
