Hopefully he'll embrace his Jewish heritage. Also 'economic populism' sucks.

I actually agree with this, more or less. The bloke should make peace with his heritage one way or another without rejecting it as some kind of impurity. Then again, ethnicity is a construct and he is under no obligation whatsoever to identify as Jewish or embrace any aspects of the ethnic nation's culture(s), so I guess the only thing to relish here is the irony of the situation. As for the economic populism, I'm not fond of us vs. them mentalities and I feel the left actually betrays its egalitarian values when it regards economic elites in general with disgust, prejudice, or disdain (i.e. treats them as an inferior social group relative to the masses, 99%, or whatever).
