My late High Priestess was a JeWitch, as were at least three other members of the coven. I grew up on Long Island, in a largely Jewish area, and most of the kids I went to school with were Jewish - the school had to close for all the Jewish holidays because nobody would have shown up for school. I learned about kosher food, Passover, kosher-for-Passover, how to curse in Yiddish, Bar and Bat Mitzvahs; I eat bagels (I've even baked them myself) and matzohs, and I've even consumed a glass of sweet Concord grape wine. (My voice and piano teacher when I was growing up was a cantor - he had been a operatic basso in Vienna, and he got out soon enough. I had him perform my wedding, and he drank a toast to our happiness in sweet wine, and sang the wedding blessing over us.) So I was damned close to being a JeWitch myself.

I could tell by that capering baboon's speaking style, by his body language, and all of his other behavior, that he was dangerously mentally ill - and my son the psychologist told me he was forbidden to speculate about the mental status of celebrities, politicians,and fictional characters. But he did agree with me. I am terrfied that the Orange Menace is trying very hard to find a way to get around the Presidential term limits and run again.
