He sarcastically commented: Yes it's a "vlasic"(He purposly mispronounced the word classic to vlasic which is an american brand of pickles) case of "gherkin"(Again he mispronounced the word jerking (Bullying) to gherkin which is also pickles) around an ally, and he continued: and it's definitely not "kosher"(which means in the context of speech, jokes aside: legitimate, but it also means a jewish food).

Watch videos of inspiring leaders such as Martin Luther King, Elijah Cummings. Don't become like the awful leaders you despise. Keep working for the highest good of all.
