Don Jr. Threw Some Shade At The Loch Ness Monster During His RNC Speech, And People Are Pissed

The first night of the RNC was certainly something.

The largely virtual convention kicked off with a number of guest speakers, including Kimberly Guilfoyle, who screamed at the United States for several minutes, and the couple who brandished guns at Black Lives Matter protests.


Donald Trump Jr., the son of our ever-ridiculous president, gave a speech that was equally as bonkers in which he referenced the Loch Ness monster.

Folks are now saying that Nessie was unfairly maligned.

Donald Trump's failed promise to "drain the swamp" was invoked in Don Jr.'s speech, wherein he called Joe Biden "basically the Loch Ness monster of the swamp."

"For the past half-century, he's been lurking around in there. He sticks his head up every now and then to run for president, then he disappears and doesn't do much in between."






Aside from the fact that the remark completely discounts Biden's eight-year-long term as Vice President, Don Jr. has let on that he is clearly unfamiliar with what a "loch" is.

"Loch" is the Gaelic or Scots word for "lake." Therefore, Loch Ness is a lake...not a swamp.





But moreover, people are reminding Don Jr. that most people love Nessie and are asking him to keep her name out of his mouth for his own political gain.





Nessie, we're so sorry this ugly man tried to malign you like that. You're doing so great sweetie.

Giphy

The RNC continues this evening.

Even Trump's NASA Director Had To Set Kim Kardashian Straight After She Said The Moon Landing 'Didn't Happen'

Special Olympics Fires Back At Kid Rock With Powerful Statement After He Used 'The R-Word' To Describe Halloween Costume

MAGA singer Kid Rock was called out by Loretta Claiborne, the Chief Inspiration Officer of the Special Olympics, after he used the "r-word"—a known ableist slur—to describe his Halloween costume this year.

Kid Rock, whose real name is Robert James Ritchie, was speaking with Fox News host Jesse Watters when he donned a face mask and said he'd be going as a "r**ard" for Halloween. Watters had guessed he was dressed as Dr. Anthony Fauci, the former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases who spearheaded the nation's COVID-19 pandemic response.
