In a year filled with cringe-worthy moments, among the most memorable came just a few weeks ago, when Donald Trump traveled to West Palm Beach to share the latest in a series of conspiracy theories.

“The Clinton machine is at the center of this power structure,” the Republican insisted, reading a prepared text from a teleprompter. “We’ve seen this first hand in the WikiLeaks documents, in which Hillary Clinton meets in secret with international banks to plot the destruction of U.S. sovereignty in order to enrich these global financial powers, her special interest friends, and her donors.”

It was the kind of speech that seemed designed for the joke, “It sounded better in the original German.”

With this in mind, consider Slate’s report on the Trump campaign’s new closing-argument ad, which was unveiled over the weekend.

Donald Trump has released what seems like the closing-argument ad of his campaign, and several people are pointing out that the whole thing has rather troubling anti-Semitic overtones by at the very least implying that it’s prominent Jews who control the “levers of power.”

1. what else is new?

2. According to a leading Neo-Nazi

Trump is 88% woke.

The 88 is not an accidental value. It stands for Heil Hitler and is a shorthand label for anti-Semitic beliefs.

Along with the 14 words - which identifies white supremacists - it gives the GOP a way to find where another member stands in their belief. Deploable also works to identify like minded people.

And if you find a screen name like "deplorablebob1488" well, that is a full on klansman

88% woke means that he is aware (woke) of the Jewish cabal that controls world affairs, just like Hitler was aware of Zionist interference.

Don't play this off like it's a meaningless coincidence -

3. KellyAnne referred to a Mazel Tov cocktail

I'll bet that in anti-Semitic circles they commonly refer to Molotov cocktails as Mazel Tov cocktails.
