Don Jr. Says Roe Overturned Because Obama Mocked Trump in 2011: ‘F**k Around and Find Out!’

By

Donald Trump Jr. has absolutely no clue how much he just humiliated his father and his family. In a context in which much of the nation is grieving the loss of a Constitutional right, Don Jr. celebrates his father’s role in the matter and says it all goes back to Obama making fun of Trump at the 2011 White House Correspondents’ Dinner.

But let’s set out one thing first so that no one is fooled by any of this. Donald Trump had nothing to do with the SCOTUS overruling Roe v. Wade. If one wants to attribute that “accomplishment” to anyone, give it to Mitch McConnell. Mitch McConnell might be the only human being capable of asserting that a president couldn’t appoint a SCOTUS justice within 8 months of an election because “the people should decide.” (The “people” in Trump’s case were a negative 2.7 million, given a majority of “the people” voted for Hillary.)

And then, McConnell can jam through a SCOTUS appointment in the October before a November election where “the people” voted out the man by over 7 million votes and an electoral college victory. If there is a human being beyond the three justices that lied to Congress, it is Mitch McConnell, not Donald Trump.

Regardless. The Trumps will take credit because that’s what they do. In this case, please let Trump take that credit given only 30% of the country wanted Roe overruled.

But as Don Jr. takes credit, he has no idea how small a person must be to be unable to take being “joked about” without having to exact revenge in a manner that deeply influences the lives of women. There is no real way around this except to say that one better not make fun of Trump because he’s so small that he’ll destroy the country in order to get back at someone.

And you can only imagine what Twitter had to say:
