Douglas Emhoff told a group that brings Jews and Muslims together that his history-making role as the second gentleman and as the first Jewish spouse of a president or vice president has brought him closer to Judaism.
“I didn’t realize what a big deal it would be not only to the Jewish community and to faith communities but to myself,” Emhoff said Thursday at an iftar, or Ramadan break-fast, hosted by the Muslim Jewish Advisory Council. “It’s actually driven me closer to faith. It has opened my eyes to a lot of things.”
Emhoff noted, for instance, the Passover seder he and Vice President Kamala Harris hosted earlier this month, their first in office. But he also said he understood the significance of faith — and how unique it was for people of different faiths to work together — when he began traveling outside his Los Angeles bubble during his wife’s campaign and then as the second gentleman.
“Coming from L.A. and working at an international law firm with Muslim partners and people of all different faiths, it’s something that was very natural to me,” he said.
“Doesn’t everyone care about equal rights. … Doesn’t everybody care about democracy and the rule of law?” he added. “I realized that, you know, my own experiences that I’ve had may not be the same experiences that everyone else has had.”

How come she ain't Kamala Emhoff, or at least Kamala Harris-Emhoff, if she's hitched to him. Get the pickup truck, Earl. This 'un needs his head pulled out'n his a@@ with a winch!

He is closer to his faith. Ok, good for him.
Did Kamala ever convert to Judaism? If not why not?
What religion is she anyway? Does she belong to any organized religious faith community?
He talks of being closer to his faith. What about her and her faith?
To: Dilbert San Diego
If he were really closer to his faith, he’d divorce her. Intermarriage is a no-no.
Both he and she share the same faith: Money and Power.

In which case, how is it "unique"?
Does he know what "unique" means?
Sounds like he's just tossing out a political word salad.

Uhm...no, no they don't. Equal rights, Democracy, and the rule of (secular) law are contrary to Muslim doctrine.

And contrary to Democrat practice. They just repeat those phrases until they mean nothing.

Douglas Emhoff should wise up. The Muslims and Democrats hate Jews at a visceral level. They would be happy to see Israel destroyed. At this very moment scores of Democrats are working to undermine Israel. The hatred of Jews is especially strong among black Democrats. You know, Hymie Town. Honestly, if the core of the Democrat party could devise a legal way to fire up the ovens, they most certainly would.

Yeah, he’s about as Jewish as rashida tlaib (d-hezbollah), or ilhan omar (d-al qaeda).🙄

I don’t even know who this eunuch is, frankly. Is he supposed to be something?
