Twitter Roundup: Don, Jr. and the Halloween Tweet
As you may know, Donald Trump, Jr. infamously tweeted this:
It’s a picture of his kid, dressed as a cop for Halloween, with a snarky note about how he’s going to teach her about “socialism” by taking half her candy and giving it away.
We learned a few things from this tweet.
- Donald Trump, Jr. has no problem using his children when playing politics.
- He’s oversimplified socialism in a way that distorts the real definition.
- Homeboy never learned the differences between to, too, and two.
The Internet, of course, reacted appropriately and WENT. AT. IT.
This is a personal favorite. Evidence, context, and a grammar lesson.
THE SHADE HAS BEEN THROWN.
And Jo, weighing in from the magical land of Scotland, with some great advice for Jr.
LOOK AT THIS, ANOTHER GRAMMAR LESSON WITH A BURN INCORPORATED.

Hello to you, too, capitalism.
THIS IS THE MIC DROP OF THEM ALL.
Annnnnd this one is the icing on the cake.
SEE, PEOPLE CAN BE NICE. IT’S COMPASSION AND HELPING OTHERS, ASSHOLE.
lol, “nepotism and fraud” is an understatement, but yes.
WOULDN’T IT BE NICE IF PEOPLE WERE NICE AND WANTED TO HELP OTHERS OUT BY PAYING TAXES SO THE GOVERNMENT COULD HELP THEM. WOULDN’T IT???
