You could win a copy of his book if you send him video of how you ruined Thanksgiving for your family.Donald Trump Jr. is a lot like his father when it comes to social media. He engages in attacks on the media and private citizens, urges his followers to engage in bad behavior, and promotes conspiracy theories and flat-out untruths.
But for the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday, Trump Jr. is taking it a step further. Hes urging his fans to trigger a liberal and ruin the traditional family feast.
Trigger a liberal thanksgiving, the Presidents son tweeted.
Trump Jr. is offering an autographed copy of his book Triggered as a prize for sending him photos or video of something/someone triggered maybe with my book.
While Trump Jr.s book has been a bestseller, the New York Times announced that the books place on their bestseller listing was because the Republican National Committee purchased thousands of copies, spending almost $100,000 to promote the screed to Republican donors.
Triggered has a special mark on the bestsellers list to indicate that its popularity is due to bulk purchases and not actual individuals purchasing the book. Its unclear if other organizations or companies like Trumps own company have also purchased mass quantities of the book to increase the sales numbers.

(4,723 posts)Thanksgiving is sacred, but also a time to toss a few turds into other people's punchbowls. I also wonder why you'd waste the time and energy trying to ruin a holiday for someone who supposedly already hates it?
It all boils down to deplorables being full of hate for everyone different from themselves, even if it means manufacturing differences that don't exist so they can hate more.

(25,911 posts)They backtracked. And, let's make believe they did do so, which they didn't: they are known for not promoting women because of religious reasons, so wtf ever go there?
And, I used to be a huge CFA fan in my younger days, before I knew better.
Moostache
(9,895 posts)BUT...the mere mention of it is a trigger point for cons...for all the reasons you and others have pointed out (the misogyny, the bigotry, the nonsensical religious crap, and much more) Chick-fil-hate is a right wing dream like Hobby Lobby for that fucking Pillow guy.
Its the POSSIBILITY of being told they are wrong and that financially they are not enough to support hateful corporations in the current economy that drives them batty.
But, to be clear, maybe just SUGGESTING them and allowing the wingers to "gloat" about how C-F-A actually is "owning the libs" and "a strong X-tian example" and giving them their outrage pill of the hour...until they see me smirking about it!

(13,941 posts).... Donnie Jr. wants to be sure after daddy finishes his second term the trDump dynasty passes to him.
He is polishing his hate bonifides to make sure the deplorables remain in the trDump camp once daddy's reign has expired and Jr. proudly takes over the crown of the king's vast empire.
Hail to the Fascist Emperor.

(63,221 posts)Where is Ivana anyway and why do you NEVER see her with her children or grandchildren. It's like she has no relationship with them at all. At one time she might have been a civilizing force in their lives, but it seems like the more she stays away the worse they get.
Maybe it's a good thing that he ignores Barron and Tiffany. At least they have some hope of turning out to be halfway decent human beings someday. The other 3 are irredeemable.

(50,453 posts)I saw your great offer "Send Video of Proud Americans Ruining a Libtard's Thanksgiving for a Free Book."
As you know I am Our Great President Trump's Number One Fan. And seeing's how this contest is right up my alley and the restraining order against me has finally been lifted, I knew I had to enter.
To get ready for the great event, I put on my Trump shirt, Trump pants, Trump shoes with matching socks, Trump undies and a Make America Great Again hat. Then I got my wife to paint "Trump" on my face in Halloween makeup, grabbed twelve guns and three video cameras, and headed to my stupid libtard brother's house to teach all them uppity commies a lesson about what a real president looks like.
Within thirty seconds of my arrival, I had been stripped naked and beaten half to death. They shit on my precius MAGA hat. They scrubbed Our Great President's name off my face with sandpaper. And then they threw me out in the snowbank. My thanksgiving dinner was two hot dogs from a gas station and a can of PBR I had to go home to drink.
Can you find it in your heart to send me a new hat? Thanks. Your fried Jethro.
