This is your greatest worst moment, responded one Twitter user to the presidents son latest online gaffe.
By Lee Moran
Twitter users dunked on Donald Trump Jr. after he shared yet another inaccurate meme on Friday.
President Donald Trumps son likened his fathers declaration of a national emergency to pay for a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border to former President Barack Obamas 2010 enaction of the Affordable Care Act with this image of Kermit the Frog sipping tea:

The caption read: Remember when we werent given a choice about Obamacare? Enjoy your wall. Trump Jr. wrote: True story.
However, dozens of people were at pains to point out that the ACA was passed following votes by elected lawmakers in Congress ― and not via Obama bypassing the House and Senate and declaring an emergency.
Trump Jr. has this month alone caught heat on the social media platform for repeating his fathers lie about the number of people who attended former Democratic Rep. Beto ORourkes rally in Texas and insulting loser teachers.

(2,680 posts)Obamacare was rammed down America's throat bc polls at the time said it wasnt popular and no Republicans voted for it. It doesnt matter if Congress approved it. They then fail to recognize that they were wanting to repeal it with no Dem votes and public support against them.
