Don Jr. Mocked for Liking Tweet From Conservative Troll Calling His Father 'Greedy and Horny'

If there's one thing that has become clear about "Trumpworld" in recent years, it's that things often make little sense. And one of Donald Trump Jr.'s recent retweets is a perfect example.

On Sunday, Jr. liked a tweet that called his father, President Trump,"greedy and horny." And folks on Twitter had a field day with Don Jr.'s aiding and abetting what seemed like an insult, or at least a backhanded compliment, of his father.


The tweet in question came from infamous alt-right activist and troll Mike Cernovich, in response to the explosive story in The Atlantic last week that alleges the President called fallen World War I soldiers "losers" and "suckers."


By way of defending the President, Cernovich tweeted:

"Trump is greedy and horny, typical of men, but he's consistently had a soft spot for Americana - parades, working people, and yes the military."
"0% would Trump ever bash the Troops."
"He loves them."

This summation, of course, stands in direct conflict with public statements Trump has made about military members in the past, such as now-deceased Senator John McCain, who Trump called a "loser" during a 2015 campaign event.

Trump also denied that McCain was a war hero because he'd been captured prisoner, saying, "I like people who weren't captured." It is also alleged that Trump continued insulting McCain following his death, again calling him a "loser" and grousing at the lowering of flags to half-staff for the Senator.

In any case, Cernovich's tweet seems to be meant as a compliment to the President, and given the Trump children's propensity toward flattery of their father, it seems like Trump Jr. considers "greedy and horny" a compliment where men are concerned as well.

Regardless of either man's intent, other people on Twitter had a field day with this bizarre moment in Twitter history.

Many mocked Trump Jr. as some sort of doofus.











And others used the tweet to troll Trump Jr. directly.





While others pointed out the absurdity of Cernovich's tweet in the first place.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
