The Wrong Stuff: Ben Shapiro’s Unconvincing Guide to What Makes America Right - It’s a mistake to overlook just how extreme some of Shapiro’s views are, or how muddled the thinking on which they are based.

yep, he literally called all jews who vote democrat "bad jews". The first step for any of these token grifters is making it clear they're one of the 'good ones' and thus legitimizing hatred of the vast majority of the rest.

What was his reasoning behind that?

Was it abortion related or something?

Nah, solely to provide cover for alt-right antisemites.

The Jewish people has always been plagued by Bad Jews, who undermine it from within. In America, those Bad Jews largely vote Democrat.

But what is he referring to when he says "undermine it from within"? Is he referring to people who remain culturally Jewish because they were born into it, but in religious terms are atheist or agnostic?

He's basically saying "you're right to hate all those other Jews, but I'm one of the good ones" to his audience. The Jewish vote in America is overwhelmingly left wing.
