Savage.

Some people use Twitter to share information, some to spread misinformation and some try to be clever. Their Twitter jokes and jabs either land or crash and burn.

Someone who is no stranger to crashing and burning online is Donald Trump Jr. His false information tweets and attempted clever bon mots generally draw more backlash than belly laughs.


His most recent post—attempting to mock the 2020 Democratic presidential candidates—fared as well as usual.

On Wednesday night during the 2nd round of Democratic debates, Trump Jr posted:

" Comedy Central should really be the host of the next round of these debates. #DemDebate"

While plenty of others fired back...

...hard...

...Comedy Central—where people are clever professionally—didn't let the opportunity pass by either.

The network's official Twitter account responded:

"Nah, last time there was a joke at a debate it became president."

Trump Jr mentioned an organization paid to be funny while trying to be witty. Why would you poke the bear?

People appreciated the moment.

No response yet from Trump Jr, but maybe it's best to let this one go by.

Fox News Host's Gripe About The 'Slobbering Media' Is An Awkward Self-Own For The Ages

On Tuesday, Fox News panelists on The Five were discussing Democratic President Joe Biden's White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre’s new book, Independent: A Look Inside a Broken White House, Outside the Party Lines, when MAGA mouthpiece Greg Gutfeld chimed in with a rant about “allied slobbering media.”

Gutfeld, a well-documented media minion for MAGA Republican President Donald Trump, made the hypocrisy of his gripes evident by including effusive, over-the-top praise of Trump as part of his indictment of the media coverage of President Biden.

NFL Responds To Claims They're Replacing Bad Bunny With George Strait Due To MAGA Outrage

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell pushed back against calls from MAGA fans who've circulated a petition demanding that the NFL replace Bad Bunny as the Super Bowl halftime show performer with country singer George Strait.

The petition urges the NFL to have Strait perform at the show, arguing that it’s “pivotal to remember the roots that have made American music what it is today.” The petition contends that Bad Bunny does not meet those supposed criteria, even though he is an American citizen.
