When dealing with the segment of the alt-right that isn\u2019t terribly fond of folks of the Jewish persuasion, I take absolutely no offense at any barbs thrown my way. Frankly, I can\u2019t understand why that sawed-off pip-squeak egotist Ben Shapiro doesn\u2019t join me. He was always the type to pick and choose his friends for maximum ego-stroking.
