In an early script, Waititi (whose mother is Jewish) described the character not as the Hitler we know and hate but as someone who is "goofy, charming, and glides through life with a childlike naivety; a real dork" — the kind of person who comforts Jojo in one scene by sharing his own insecurities before offering him a cigarette.

I quit my job as the executive tech editor at The Huffington Post, got hired as a "cellar rat" — the lowest of the low in the wine industry — and from there embarked on a journey that took me through Michelin-starred restaurants, Trump-country eateries, collectors' wine "orgies," and scientists' labs (all of which eventually led to my book, Cork Dork).

Jeb's macho rebrand, which also includes ditching his dork glasses for cool dude contact lenses, continued apace on Wednesday, when footage from a new ad was released, including this beautiful, incredibly awkward chest bump between Jeb Bush and George W.
