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.

MAGA Rep. Caught Faking Phone Call After Reporter Asks Him About Mike Johnson's Plan To Cut Social Security In Awkward Video

Virginia Republican Representative Rob Wittman was criticized after he was caught faking a phone call when a MeidasTouch reporter asked him about House Speaker Mike Johnson's plan to cut Social Security.

Social Security's retirement and survivor trust fund is now projected to run short of money in 2032, slightly sooner than previously expected. Government trustees said the revised outlook was driven in part by lower immigration, declining birth rates, and the impact of the Trump administration's tax legislation, which extended earlier tax cuts and created a new deduction for seniors.

AOC Just Threw Some Epic Shade At Trump After The Knicks' Historic Comeback Win In Game 4

New York Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez threw some shade President Donald Trump's way after the New York Knicks overcame a historic 29-point deficit to take Game 4 from the San Antonio Spurs.

Could this be because Trump wasn't in attendance? Ocasio-Cortez seemed to suggest that: The Knicks emerged victorious after losing Game 3 earlier this week—a game Trump attended.

Trump's Sanctimonious Reaction To Controversial Democratic Senate Candidate's Primary Win Is A Self-Own For The Ages

President Donald Trump very much told on himself when he attempted to cry foul over Maine Democrat Graham Platner's primary win for U.S. Senate following Platner's unearthed controversies.

Trump is an adjudicated rapist whose name appears in the Epstein files 38,000 times. His supporters participated in a failed insurrection at the U.S. Capitol in 2021 and he was even convicted in a campaign finance fraud case. He has launched a war in Iran that kicked off a global energy crisis, sending gas prices soaring and exacerbating a nationwide affordability crisis.

Dean Cain Ripped After Making Rude Comment About 'Supergirl' Star Milly Alcock's Appearance

The Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman alum, 59, took to X Sunday to comment on a photo of Alcock, 26, dressed as Supergirl with several ear piercings visible.

Bridgers is well-known for her emotionally raw lyrics, ballad-like guitar solos, and haunting vocals, and fans have missed her solo tours, despite getting small samples of her continued work through features with Taylor Swift and SZA.
