HILARIOUS: Kamala’s Husband Humiliated, Forced To Delete Post!

Is Doug Emhoff a JINO? A Jew-in-name-only? It would seem so after a humiliating Backlash forced him to delete his Hanukkah post.

The husband of First Lady Kamala Harris is Jewish, yet he doesn’t even seem to know the story of Hanukkah.

Emhoff was forced to delete his Hanukkah post claiming that the Jews were forced into hiding as the backdrop for why the holiday is celebrated.

Of course, this never happened. The Jews were barricaded inside the Second Temple holding out against Greek forces—it was a military battle, not forced hiding.

Hanukkah is all about the small quantity of oil lasting for 8 full days while the Maccabees were pinned down—this is the miracle of Hanukkah and the fact that the Jewish militia won the battle against the battle-hardened Greco-Syrian forces.

One thing is for certain though: Emhoff and clueless Kamala make excellent bedfellows since neither can even get the most basic details right.

Host Erick Erickson had this to say about the embarrassing debacle: “The infamous Doug Emhoff Hanukkah tweet is emblematic of a larger issue: This White House can’t get the basics right and I will never understand why Democrats are not panicked ahead of 2024.”

The New York Post explained the significance of the holiday:

Hanukkah commemorates the rededication of the Temple in Jerusalem after the Maccabees, a Jewish militia, liberated ancient Israel from Syrian-Greek occupation about 2,200 years ago, restoring Jewish ritual to the sacred site.

When the Maccabees sought to light the temple’s Menorah, as part of the rededication ceremony, they found only a days-worth of oil. But when the oil was lit, it lasted, miraculously, for eight days.

Emhoff made this statement on Tuesday: “It was an honor to celebrate Hanukkah at the White House last night with President Joe Biden and members of the Jewish community. Hanukkah is an important reminder that we can always find light and hope, even in times of darkness.”

Daily Mail recorded some reactions from around the web:

“I’m really hoping the Second Gentleman left this to some hapless and uneducated intern who couldn’t be bothered to even consult Wikipedia.

Eight days of hiding? Yikes, man!” added Jason Bedrick of the Heritage Foundation.

Ben Shapiro was more blunt: ‘Doug Emhoff is the Kamala Harris of Second Gentlemen.’
