We regret to inform you the Trump family brain trust, Donald Trump Jr., is at it again.

Yes, the poster boy for never learning your lesson has gone on the ol' Twitter machine to post yet another classic in which he thinks he's cut a Democrat to the quick but has actually just typed out a bunch of nonsense words. This time, the eldest son of former Republican President Donald Trump has guns on the brain.


After Democratic President Joe Biden mocked gun-obsessed conservatives' fetishism of military-grade assault weapons in his State of the Union address by quipping, "You think the deer are wearing a Kevlar vest?" Trump Jr. had the perfect comeback.

Or at least he thought he did.

What he actually posted made no sense whatsoever, but that's par for the course at this point.

Anyway, see Trump Jr.'s big clapback below.

Trump Jr. tweeted:

"Joe, the reason American’s need an AR-15 with a 30 round magazine isn’t a deer in a Kevlar vest it’s what you’re watching take place on the news 24/7 this week in Ukraine🇺🇦 #sotu"

What on Earth does Russian President Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine have to do with U.S. gun laws, you ask?

Well let's see... it's happening on the other side of the world, in a country that is not the U.S. And while Putin has threatened to retaliate against us if we get involved, he's threatened to do so with nuclear weapons. All the assault rifles in the universe are no match for a single nuclear bomb.

As for our actual border mates, Canada and Mexico, both are allies to us and have no plans to invade us that we know of. So yeah: your guess is as good as ours when it comes to what on Earth this tweet could possibly mean.

But boy howdy, Jr. sure thinks he did something, doesn't he! But pretty much nobody on Twitter was impressed, and they let him know in no uncertain terms.








Someone please restart the countdown clock until Trump Jr.'s next nonsensical face-plant tweet. It's only a matter of time.

'Dr. Pimple Popper' Star Reveals She Suffered Stroke While Filming Series: 'I Had A Part Of My Brain That Died'

It's already scary to witness a younger person go through a life-changing medical diagnosis, but it's especially jarring to see a medical professional, who presumably knows best about how to care for themselves, go through the same.

Sandra Lee, known as "Dr. Pimple Popper" on Lifetime, is well-known for her bedside manner, medical knowledge and ability to share her knowledge in an accessible way, and, of course, her unique approach to dermatological care.

Rob Schneider Dragged For Criticizing Elizabeth Banks' 'Dangerous Rhetoric' After She Called Out White Female Trump Voters

After actor and filmmaker Elizabeth Banks—who played Effie Trinket in The Hunger Games—called out white women who voted for President Donald Trump, MAGA actor Rob Schneider lashed out against what he referred to as her "dangerous rhetoric."

Those who've read the book and seen the film adaptation of The Hunger Games know that Trinket—known for joyfully announcing, "Happy Hunger Games and the odds may be ever in your favor!"—is a mistress of propaganda for a hostile government that forces teenagers to fight to the death every year to intimidate critics and keep society's poorest and most vulnerable in line. Trinket eventually embraces the rebellion.

Kid Rock Dragged After Offering Massive Discount To His MAGA Festival Due To Abysmal Ticket Sales

Musician Kid Rock has hitched his wagon to president Donald Trump for quite some time now, and it seems he too is in the "find out" stage of that particularly exercise in FAFO.

It seems that when the president you form your entire personality around craters to a catastrophic approval rating even for him, your ship starts to sink too.

Trump's Border Czar Ripped For Hypocrisy After Telling Pope Leo To 'Stay Out Of Politics'

President Donald Trump's border czar Tom Homan was called out for hypocrisy after telling Pope Leo XIV to "stay out of politics" after he clashed with Trump over the widely unpopular war in Iran.

Last week, Pope Leo criticized the war and called on the world "to reject war, especially a war which many people have said is an unjust war, which is continuing to escalate and is not resolving anything."
