'Put him in charge now': Don Jr. demands Trump get federal power after Vance-Walz debate

"SNIP..........

Donald Trump Jr. called for President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris to let his father "take over" some government operations following a vice presidential debate between Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) and Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN).

Just moments after the debate concluded, former President Donald Trump's son claimed that his father had worked with Elon Musk to bring internet access to victims of Hurricane Helene while the Biden-Harris administration "gave $8 billion to Ukraine."

"How about we just send it to North Carolina, Georgia?" Donald Trump Jr. said. "My father's doing more for North Carolina and Georgia by getting Elon to bring in Starlink and supplies to be able to create communications."

White House spokesperson Andrew Bates has said the Starlink access was "already happening" before Trump called Musk. But that didn't matter to the former president's son.

If he had any other name, Don, Jr. would never have even made it into middle management.

There is going to be violence, instigated by Trump, when he loses.

The same people will probably get violent even if he should somehow win—they would interpret an electoral victory as license to attack all the people Trump hates.

I give Felon Jr credit, the real satirists have had to up their game considerably to keep pace with the insanity
