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.

Woman Sparks Debate After Accusing Frontier Airlines Of Kicking Her Off Flight For Being Deaf

Let this Frontier Airlines saga be a reminder to all of us that not all disabilities and needs are visible, so when a person requests accommodations, it's better to believe them.

TikToker @legallyswiftie13 posted in 2024 that, though she was in her early twenties, she discovered that she would be rapidly losing her hearing, which was discovered at a routine medical check-up. Though she could still speak and hear, it would become increasingly difficult for her to hear, especially when there were competing noises in the area.

Former GOP Senator Gets Brutal Wakeup Call After Criticizing People For Playing 'Candy Crush' Instead Of 'Making Babies'

Ben Sasse represented Nebraska in the United States Senate from 2015 to 2023. As a Midwestern moderate, the sometimes controversial Sasse was often critical of MAGA Republican President Donald Trump on social media and on the Senate floor.

At one point, the Nebraska GOP censured him because of his criticism of Trump. But Sasse, like Maine Republican Senator Susan Collins, would still vote with the majority of his party when his vote was needed to back Trump's agenda.
