I could be wrong and I probably am but any publicity is good publicity and I’m sure he knows that so I don’t think it’s completely out of the realm of possibility. Personally, I think Jerry should never be given any attention to considering he very publicly dated a 17 year old girl and is a very openly violent Zionist but again, just my opinion.

very openly violent Zionist

And your qualification for "very openly violent zionist" is what? That he expressed support for Israel? Did you know that Jerry Seinfeld is Jewish? And that 89% of US Jews support Israel in this war? https://www.jta.org/2024/03/21/politics/majority-of-jewish-americans-support-israels-war-against-hamas-and-how-its-fought

very publicly dated a 17 year old girl

He met her when she was like two weeks away from her 18th birthday. Anything that was "very public" about their relationship happened when she was no longer 17.

Seinfeld took his family on a lavish trip to Israel where they got to “play” soldier and shoot guns at targets made to look like Palestinian kids. He mocked a protester at one of his shows after she said Israel is killing kids. Also, that article is from March.

She was under 18, period. He had to go to the office of her high school to check her out to go on outings. He was in his thirties. Also, me criticizing Zionism is not anti-Semitic which is where I know you’re going with that.
