Um Zohan was an Israeli commando in that epic movie and you did not MESS with him. Also it was about rich white guys using white supremicists for hire to try to to make marginalized people hate each other. Zohan fixed that. In sum: Jimmy, you are a dope; Maria, we already knew you were.

This is a billionaire refusing to respect democracy, and refusing to respect a vote that chose people over profit.

We will.
