...statements and advertising by the Presidential campaigns and independent political groups - in the process exposing one or two lies every day.

During a battle in New York City, one quipped, "You squint your eyes and look deceitful/ That's why God hates Chinese people." But Jin, who uses Asian stereotypes to his own benefit, often had the last word: "Yeah I'm Chinese/ Now you understand it/ I'm the reason why his little sister's eyes...
