Underrated Jewish comedy
Josephine Sarah "Sadie" Earp (née Marcus; 1861 – 1944)
She was the wife of Wyatt Earp the famed Old West lawman. She met Wyatt in 1881 in the frontier town of Tombstone, Arizona, when she was living with Johnny Behan, sheriff of Cochise County, Arizona. She left Behan, who was nearly twice her age, in 1881, before the gunfight at the O.K. Corral. She returned to San Francisco in March 1882 and was joined that fall by Wyatt, with whom she remained for 46 years until his death in 1929. Josephine Earp had his body cremated and buried him in the Marcus family plot in a Jewish cemetery
Josephine Marcus was born in New York to a Jewish family. They moved to San Francisco, where she attended dance school as a girl. She ran away as a young teen traveling to Arizona looking for adventure. Sadie kept this period of her life a secret but there js evidence that she may have been forced to work as a prostitute under the name Sadie Mansfield. She described this period as 'A bad dream'.
The book I Married Wyatt Earp (1967), is based on a manuscript allegedly written in part by her.

"“Not only is it bad form, but it’s also an ignorant waste of oxygen. Asked to respond to criticism from Jewish leaders, Trump campaign press secretary Karoline Leavitt sent statements from herself and several of Trump’s Jewish supporters. The statements didn’t directly address the potential blaming of Jews for a Trump defeat..."
#Trump again spouts #racist and hateful statements to #jewishvoters and #JewishAmericans blaming them for his potention election loss.
Former President Donald Trump recently reissued his loyalty test to religious Americans, declaring that he can best protect their freedoms while preemptively blaming some if he loses the presidential election in November. He said Jews and Catholics can vote for him and ace the test, but those who don’t — in his words — “need their head examined.” If he's defeated, Trump added, Jewish people would bear blame for that result. Among the Jewish leaders appalled at Trump’s remarks was Rabbi Rick Jacobs, president of the Union for Reform Judaism. Jacobs said: “It puts a target on American Jews. ... Stop.”
" #Trump consistently speaks in ways that suggest #American Jews have dual loyalty to the #UnitedStates and #Israel... He called Benjamin #Netanyahu “your prime minister” at a 2019 #Republican Jewish Coalition event. In a 2020 Rosh Hashanah call with #American Jewish leaders, Trump said, “We really appreciate you; we love your country also.”
Your, your, your. Wrong, wrong, wrong. We are #JewishAmericans, not Israelis, & it is beyond insulting to imply otherwise."

Palmer Report:
"Unhinged Donald Trump complains he hasn’t 'been treated very well' by Jewish people.
(...)
For as much time as the Republican Party spends trying to portray itself as the Party of Israel, the reality is that the vast majority of #Jewish Americans vote for the Democratic Party instead."
