Not a Sherrod Brown clone but the next best thing

Even if she were an excellent politician on her own merit, the aesthetic of dynastic politics would not play well here, I suspect.

Being Jewish, seeing a Jewish politician repeatedly say some version of the 14 words to try to fit in with white nationalists and become their leader makes me want to vomit.

Mandel’s Jewish? Never knew

He uses the phrase "Judeo-Christian" a lot. Just like Dennis Prager and Ben Shapiro.

A lot of non-Jews use that term to clarify that they are not overtly railing against the Muslims and the Jews.

Again, I am just waiting for Mandel to attack Vance for having a brown wife.

High-risk, low reward.

First, consider that a lot of the groyper types are more ambivalent about this kind of interracial marriage than any other. The thought process goes: Asian woman -> closer to "trad" culture -> less feminism.

Secondly, if hardcore mudslinging like that doesn't backfire, it proves all kinds of dogwhistles can work. Then Vance can just respond with blatant antisemitism, which probably has more staying power.

Republican Senate candidate Mark Pukita goes after Mandel and has a gamer moment.

“Are we seriously supposed to believe the most Christian-values Senate candidate is Jewish?” a voice actor asks in Pukita’s radio ad. “I am so sick of these phony caricatures.”

“I agree,” a woman replies in the ad. “We keep electing people like this, we’ll just keep getting the same terrible results.”
