Draggingtree Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 Breaking Israel News: Oy, Gevalt: Trump Insults Clinton in YiddishBy Abra Forman December 22, 2015 , 2:30 pm“There is one whose rash words are like sword thrusts, but the tongue of the wise brings healing.” (Proverbs 12:18) Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has said many less-than-kind things about his Democratic rival, Hillary Clinton, but this may be the first time he’s used Yiddish to do so. Speaking to 6,000 supporters at a campaign rally in Grand Rapids, Michigan, Trump said of Hillary’s defeat by Obama in 2008, “She was favored to win and she got schlonged, she lost.” “Schlong” is a Yiddish word for penis. Yiddish, an amalgam of German and Hebrew, was the language traditionally spoken by Jews from eastern Europe. It is still spoken today among some religious Jewish sects.
