Trump Jr. blames trans people for Melissa Hortman's murder https://share.google/gxOSYfbin1fwITYrK



The suspected shooter in the assassination of Minnesota Rep. Melissa Hortman once claimed that transgender people have been corrupted by "the enemy" — but that hasn't stopped Donald Trump Jr. from claim he's part of the "radical transgender movement."

The president's son falsely claimed during a recent conversation with right-wing pundit Benny Johnson that the man accused of murdering and attempting to murder Democratic lawmakers, who had a list of Democratic elected officials and other progressive activists he intended to target, is actually a left-wing extremist with connections to the trans community.

“It’s like the radical transgender movement is per capita the most violent domestic terror threat, if not in America, probably the entire world … because you have all these shooters and murderers or attempted murderers in such a tiny population," Trump Jr. said, contrary to all available evidence.

1. Bless his heart

such as it is.

I can't decide which is stronger in this one: the hate, or the stupid?

[BonnieJW]

24. Stupid

He and his siblings are an ad for birth control. Five duds.

[choie]

30. Hate

He knows the truth.

[Bettie]

2. Dumbass Donny Jr

is trying to seem relevant again.

And, as always, just making himself look like and idiot and an asshole.

Wait....he's just SHOWING himself to be what he has always been: an idiot and and asshole.

[madinmaryland]

3. Junior is back on the cocaine train.

[Torchlight]

13. Sounds serious

You're good enough. You're smart enough. And doggonit, people like you!

[niyad]

31. Did I just miss one of our favourite trolls?

[Torchlight]

49. Bad spelling and intolerance, so yeah... I'd guess a troll.

[Chi67]

36. Yep

Too much cocaine is bad for you.

[WinstonSmith4740]

41. Oh, I dunno...

Don't you have to get off a train in order to get back on?

[sop]

4. "It's like the radical transgender movement is per capita the most violent domestic terror threat, if not in America,

probably the entire world … because you have all these shooters and murderers or attempted murderers in such a tiny population."

WTF? I had to read that statement several times.

[Demovictory9]

7. Trying to say that trans population produces higher percentage of killers

Not true

[sop]

19. "Transgender people are over four times more likely than cisgender people to be victims of violent crime,"

according to a recent study at the Williams Institute, UCLA School of Law.

We need a stronger word for "lie." Mendacity, deception, fabrication, falsehood, whopper...none of them can fully describe what these Trump people are doing to the concept of truth.

[BattleRow]

29. Paging AI for new terminology .

[WinstonSmith4740]

43. I'd be happy...

if the damn media would just start using "lie" again. It's not "misinformation" damn it. It's a lie.

[TommyT139]

47. There would be fewer trans "shooters" running around

...if Trump hadn't kicked them out of the armed forces, just sayin'.

At every level -- including special forces.

Three from this year's graduating class of the Air Force Academy alone.

Three. At least one of them is planning to go to court to challenge the administration. (I don't know about the others -- they may too.) If they don't leave on their own, the Trump administration is going to force them to pay for their education and training retroactively.

Those are trans people.

That fundie Trumpist loser wannabe cop assassin can't hold a candle to even the average trans person -- nor can any Trump nepo druggie.

[Walleye]

5. Is it just opportunistic politics.No, now I'm thinking there is something really weird about their obsession with LGBTQ

[newdeal2]

11. Well pre- gay marriage being legal, a lot of them were closeted

And some still are e.g. a certain senator from the south.

[Walleye]

14. Yes, good point

[yardwork]

34. Authoritarian types are obsessed with sex.

They're just messed up people.

[Hey Joe]

42. MAGA is obsessed with the sex they aren't getting

The republican party and religious right have always been too curious and envious of other people’s sexual preferences and hate them for their freedoms and choices as they feel restrained by their own religious beliefs.
In short, they have become a party of leering panty sniffers and perverts. In everyone’s dirty laundry and personal spaces.
Disgusting

[JT45242]

6. The rubes in the maga hats will believe it...

Amplified on fox, right wing hate radio, podcasts, etc. this lie will become their truth.

They all believe the old Nazi adage that a lie told often enough and forcefully enough becomes the truth.

[yardwork]

35. That's the strategy.

[Gum Logger]

40. Apparently, we are in backward world

[spanone]

9. Fuck junior

[Vinca]

10. Of course he would say that. He's as batshit crazy as the old man.

[no_hypocrisy]

12. If Vance were truly a "left-wing extremist with

connections to the transgender community,” then his targets would have been MAGA politicians and their supporters, not Democrats.

As an aside, Coke is a dangerous drug.

[Scrivener7]

15. Without a loud and constant opposing message of the truth, the right will run with this and the rank and file right

will believe it.

[Deuxcents]

23. And then they will have a new target to attack and innocents will be harmed

[Paladin]

16. Jaw-droppingly stupid---even by trump jr's low standards. (nt)

[allegorical oracle]

17. Hope DC law enforcement keeps an eye on his new private "club". Sounds like the last sort

of business Jr ought to be involved with. ('Tho never have understood whether Big Daddy's pardon powers can be used in DC.)

[Timeflyer]

18. The dingleberry doesn't fall far from the raging gaping orange anus.

[Orrex]

20. Holy shit why the fuck doesn't he just die already?

[Maine Abu El Banat]

21. You know

If I was that fu*king stupid I think I would keep my mouth shut!

[hadEnuf]

22. Hey, why not?

Every other insane theory given by the right-wing is entertained. This should play well with the crowd waiting for JFK to return from hiding.

[AllaN01Bear]

25. from a friend of mine ,"

" most violent crime in america is caused by straight white males and is someone familliar to the victom". please try to change my mind on this . from someone whom i am very close to.

[Stargazer99]

32. Another social blind social stupid BS is that family is the best for girls-the fact is that girls experience more sex

abuse in families than from outside people. This Republican crap about the importance of family creating a healthy society is not true according to facts. How many lies do the Republicans like to BS you with?

[FalloutShelter]

26. So effing sick of these mouth breathers.

🤬

[Ocelot II]

27. The douche doesn't fall far from the bag,

but this is next-level loony.

[mn9driver]

28. A steady supply of scapegoats is required

for the budding Fascist state.

The MAGAs have already altered their reality of this recent assassination to create a link to “Marxists” and “Transgender” people. Going forward, they will continue to alter their reality so that their followers never have to look in a mirror to see what they have become.

This is planned and organized. We will see this again and again. It works because the internet has made it possible for people to choose what news they listen to. And more importantly, what news they don’t.

[kwolf68]

33. He is right

This is about trans-gen people. The killer hated trans gen people and preached hate against them. So it's their fault he has hate and kills.

[sop]

39. Transphobic MAGA killers just can't help themselves.

[Turbineguy]

37. Idiot.

Must be interviewing for a cabinet post.

[turbinetree]

38. No Asshole I blame the following.............you really are a punk just like your father........

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_organizations_designated_by_the_Southern_Poverty_Law_Center_as_anti-LGBTQ_hate_groups

[generalbetrayus]

44. I've said it here before and I will continue to say it again and again about all the tRump boys ...

[chowder66]

45. That's awesome.

[ProudMNDemocrat]

46. Jr. hitting the lines again?

Jr. is truly an example of what the brain looks like on drugs.

[DavidDvorkin]

48. Despite his self-deception, he has close to zero chance of being the GOP nominee in 2028

But what a gift to the Democrats if somehow he were!

[ck4829]

50. Protect your mental health, turn off conservative media that Trump jr is using as a mouthpiece

Also, random, ask your doctor if universal healthcare is right for you.

[Deep State Witch]

51. I'm Sure That Will Come As A Surprise to the Shooter

Who is a Christian fundamentalist. He'd probably be insulted that Uday connected him to the transgender community!

[Norrrm]

52. Admit it, Donnie Jr. You know it's due to the republican culture of molesting children.

[Jilly_in_VA]

53. That's a reach even for him

If you had a sense of shame, Junior, you'd be ashamed of yourself. Unfortunately, you blew that up your nose and out what little brain you had.

[Clouds Passing]

54. The notsees are insane. There is no other way to explain them.
