Want to torture your liberal Jewish friends? Send them an endlessly repeating loop of this montage from the Republican Jewish Coalition, featuring the Republican presidential candidates (except Rand Paul, who was voting in the Senate) wishing you and yours a “Happy Hannukah!”

Ben Carson sounds confused, “Hannukah?” Ted Cruz sounds religious, pronouncing it, “Chanukah.” Donald Trump seems like he doesn’t mean it—this is pandering, after all, and Trump had just been booed by the Republican Jewish Coalition’s audience after unleashing a barrage of anti-Semitic clichés.
