The first 19 minutes were terrifying, the last three minutes were hysterical.

The context is that he publicly mocked a Jew for changing his name. Specifically, John Oliver's former boss.

Fantastic. I can't believe people are voting for this jackass!

Well his father profited from quite a few Jews in Brooklyn who rented his buildings so maybe the father changed it and not the grandfather so as not to scare off customers.

I had not seen this before I posted, but looks like I was onto something. Fred Trump supposedly claimed to be of Swedish decent so as not to scare off Jewish tenants.

Like the Jews hadn't been lied to and manipulated enough or had anyone else to go? What a humanitarian.

Love John Oliver! That was great!

It sucks when even the Germans expel your grandfather for tax evasion and draft dodging. And then you father starts telling everyone that your grandad was Swedish.

This was Drumpf-tastic! I love John Oliver.

(That clip with "The Drumpf" talking with the Fox morning crew about how to fight terrorism--they all looked like they were crapping their pants. He shocked Fox.)

DUMP DRUMPF!!!!!!!!!

So glad the Donald Drumpf video has gone viral. Hoping his supporters will wake up and smell the sour milk and dog poop!! Make America Great again by first dumping Drumpf!!

Drumpf is a great last name - white people are always changing their last names when they come over here - stop doing it!

Hilarious!!!!! Every one of his fans needs to see this!

Finally saw this - brilliant!

Before I opened the thread, I thought you were doing a riff on "Mein Kampf."
