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.

RFK Jr.'s CDC Blasted After Updating Website To Include Debunked Theory About Vaccines

Back in 1998, British medical journal The Lancet published a purported medical study by Dr. Andrew Wakefield that claimed to find proof of a link between the MMR vaccine—which protects against measles, mumps, and rubella—and autism.

Parents looking for something to blame other than genetics for their neurotypical child, as well as antivaxxers and conspiracy theorists, rejoiced.

Trump Dragged After Floating Wild Conspiracy For Why Daughter Tiffany's College Graduation Was Canceled

President Donald Trump had people shaking their heads after he claimed during remarks at the U.S.-Saudi Investment Forum on Wednesday that he doesn't think his daughter Tiffany's graduation from Georgetown University in 2020 was actually canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Trump is of course no stranger to COVID-19 conspiracy theories—he made them a hallmark of his first term, when his administration oversaw and dangerously bungled the pandemic response—but this time he's brought his youngest daughter into the mix.

Dem Senator Drops F-Bomb In Fiery Video After Trump Calls For Congressional Democrats To Be Hanged

Connecticut Democratic Senator Chris Murphy said "maybe it's time to pick a f**king side" in response to President Donald Trump's call for a group of congressional Democrats who are military veterans to be executed after they reminded U.S. troops that they must disobey unlawful orders.

Senators Elissa Slotkin (Michigan) and Mark Kelly (Arizona) joined Representatives Chris Deluzio and Chrissy Houlahan (Pennsylvania), Maggie Goodlander (New Hampshire), and Jason Crow (Colorado), all of whom are veterans. In a video message, they noted that the Trump administration is "pitting our uniformed military and intelligence community professionals against American citizens."

Relationships can dissolve for all kinds of reasons, but a key reason that's become more popular with the prevalence of TikTok and Reddit is not staying with someone who doesn't listen to their partner or prioritize their needs.

Knowing a person's favorite song or how they take their coffee might seem like a mundane thing, but it's an intimate detail that shows that you care about your partner's likes and interests.
