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.

Trump Just Tried To Claim He Spoke To A 'Former President' About Iran—But There's One Big Problem

MAGA Republican President Donald Trump isn't helping his handlers refute observations of his signs of dementia or overall cognitive decline.

According to the United Kingdom's The Independent, the POTUS told the press at least three times on Monday that one of his predecessors told him they wished they had launched an unprovoked attack on Iran just like Trump did.

Candace Owens Posts Screenshot Of Charlie Kirk's NSFW Dig At Meghan McCain—And Get Out The Popcorn

Conservative mouthpieces Candace Owens and Meghan McCain are feuding over the late far-right activist Charlie Kirk, and things got really messy after Owens shared one of Kirk's alleged text messages to her.

Kirk was assassinated in September while speaking at an event in Utah. In the months since, Owens has distanced herself from many figures on the far right, accusing them of exploiting his legacy—at times even sharing private communications she had with him.

Trump Just Responded To Top Counterterrorism Official's Damning Resignation Letter In Peak Trump Fashion

President Donald Trump was criticized for his response to the resignation of National Counterterrorism Center Director Joe Kent over the war in Iran, saying the country "posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby."

Kent, a former Green Beret and political candidate with ties to right-wing extremists, was confirmed last July in a 52–44 vote to lead the National Counterterrorism Center, where he oversaw efforts to analyze and detect terrorist threats.

Gavin Newsom's Wife Claps Back Hard In Viral Video After Trump Mocks Newsom's Learning Disability

Jennifer Siebel Newsom—the wife of California Governor Gavin Newsom—criticized President Donald Trump after he claimed her husband's dyslexia should disqualify him from being president, calling Trump's comments "extremely ignorant and offensive."

Newsom has frequently spoken about living with dyslexia, a common learning disability that can make reading more difficult and affect spelling and speech. He has said he prefers not to rely on teleprompters because of the condition, and wrote in a recent memoir that, when he was younger, he overcompensated by memorizing “pretentious words.”

Gellar reveals reason for Buffy reboot ax

Sarah Michelle Gellar is finally pulling back the curtain on why Buffy the Vampire Slayer’s planned return was abruptly shut down—and the explanation is raising eyebrows.

In a new interview with People, Gellar pointed to a single Hulu executive who, she claims, simply didn’t like the original series, effectively halting the planned continuation show Buffy: New Sunnydale in its tracks—an ending that feels less like a heroic finale and more like a stake through a vampire’s heart.
