republican pundit and former first son
donald trump jr has been known to cause
a stir on his rise to viral fame here's
his most bizarre behavior since his dad
left office in january 2021
the assertion that conservatives are
being bullied and silenced by liberals
is frequently propagated by the right
accusations of cancel culture were
levied against the left long before the
term entered the cultural lexicon during
an appearance on hannity in february
2021 donald trump jr made some sweeping
claims suggesting that conservatives had
been oppressed for decades until his
father the supposed emancipator became
president in the wake of the second
impeachment against the elder trump
trump jr made this claim about his
father on hannity's show he's taught
republicans and conservatives that they
don't need to be steamrolled that they
can push back that they don't just have
to roll over and die because the other
side would like them to in actuality
republicans have been loudly voicing
their opposition to the left for decades
a far cry from the meek pre-president
trump conservatives that trump jr seeks
to portray as washington monthly
explains this belief in a broad liberal
conspiracy did not begin with donald
trump since its very beginning in the
1950s members of the modern conservative
movement have justified bad behavior by
convincing themselves that the other
side is worse
there is no shortage of individuals who
rouse the ire of donald trump jr and
prince harry and meghan markle are
frequent targets of the right markle in
particular has been attacked by various
trump allies and donald trump himself
for instance former trump lawyer jenna
ellis tweeted back in march megan not
knowing what she was getting into
marrying prince harry is evangelicals
for biden not knowing what they were
getting into voting democrat no one
believes you it should come as little
surprise that trump jr is following in
his father's footsteps and taking aim at
prince harry and meghan markle trump jr
branded prince harry a quote dude in a
hostage video during a facebook rant
against the duke and duchess of sussex
oprah interview he claimed that markle
was quote looking for all of this
attention which is a criticism routinely
posited by the right salon argued that
the rant was part of trump jr's
continuing efforts to remain relevant
the truth is markle has been open about
her ongoing issues with depression and
suicidal ideation so branding her as an
attention seeker may be regarded as
callous to say the least if you or
someone you know is having suicidal

mimicking his father's mannerisms trump
jr greeted an australian fan and
inexplicably took it as an opportunity
to attack cnn don't worry about it if
your wife's mad at you for saying that
election night 2016 is the happiest
night of your life thanks for helping us
out and supporting us and going after
the liberals and the crazies on cnn as
noted by the guardian trump's move into
the world of personalized videos for
cash reward comes after he complained
about the millions the trump family has
sustained in legal bills due to ongoing
criminal investigations into the trump
organization
the publication went on to disclose that
the cash-strapped trump jr had recently
bought a mansion in south florida for
9.7 million dollars with guilfoyle
following his ban from twitter and
facebook donald trump senior brought
legal action against the company's
respective ceos jack dorsey and mark
zuckerberg in a press conference he
declared that he sought an immediate
halt
to
social media companies illegal shameful
censorship of
the american people in screenshots
obtained by the daily mail trump jr used
social media platform telegram to plead
with his fans for donations in his
father's legal fight against zuckerberg
and dorsey trump jr wrote in the post
guys my dad is suing big tech you can
click to link to donate to his pack to
help out considering that his father is
a billionaire and trump jr is pretty
wealthy himself the call to action was
strange to say the least a 2019 analysis
by forbes estimated that trump jr was
worth around 25 million dollars a figure
which likely increased due to his
momentum within the alt-right movement
donald trump jr is many things
president's son
activist and now budding stand-up
comedian after being introduced by his
partner kimberly guilfoyle trump jr took
the stage at the conservative political
action conference in july 2021. he saw
the event as an opportunity to flex his
comedic skills
to a lukewarm response trump jr joked
it's great to see it texas has always
led the charge well till about like a
couple of months ago and then austin
sort of took over like i don't know guys
like texas is leading the charge you're
still top 25
lambasting trump jr's failed attempts at
humor seth meyers quipped don jr looked
like he just walked into a scene in the
student improv show and blanked right
wing attempts at blending left-bashing
with laughs is nothing new trump jr
follows an increasingly long line of
conservative commentators that have
merged comedy with politics including
greg gupfeld and the original comedian
turned conservative pundit dave rubin
donald trump senior may be suspended
from instagram but his son's account is
thriving ever since his dad left office
donald trump jr's instagram feed has
become steadily more incendiary with a
heavy reliance on memes
indeed in his bio he refers to himself
as quote general in the meme wars which
is an extension of the perceived culture
wars between conservative and their
liberal nemeses as a result trump jr's
instagram account is littered with
right-wing memes and propaganda however
despite his vast following of 5.1
million followers and counting trump jr
has claimed that the instagram algorithm
is suppressing his account as
highlighted by the atlantic he
interprets his father's style of
populism by framing likes comments and
followers as another set of privileges
that have been rested away from regular
people and hoarded by liberals and
elites in reality instagram analytics
show that trump jr's engagement is
remarkably high
while he may claim to be a passionate
patriot donald trump jr's love for
america slams to a halt when it comes to
supporting certain female athletes at
the tokyo 2020 olympic games the u.s
women's soccer team lost 3-0 to sweden
star player megan rupino doesn't hide
from that fact telling yahoo sports i
always welcome the criticism for women's
sports criticism in the media still
needs to get better but trump jr
practically gloated in repino's defeat
at the olympics in response to rapino's
criticism of the media's antiquated
depiction of female athletes trump jr
tweeted hey megan maybe it's you
sentiments mirrored those of his father
who claimed that the u.s women's
national team's loss was somehow linked
to quote wokism as reported by the
independent during a rally the elder
trump claimed woke-ism makes you lose
ruins your mind and ruins you as a
person trump also added the u.s women's
soccer team is a very good example of
what's going on it should be noted that
the team went on to win 6-1 against new
zealand disproving the outlandish claims
made by the trump family
in august 2021 the taliban seized
control of afghanistan after two decades
of u.s military intervention in the
country this takeover appalled even the
most contrarian pundits but donald trump
jr managed to find some common ground
with the hostile insurgents
in a press conference taliban spokesman
zabi hula mujahid was asked about
freedom of speech under the
organization's rule mujah had diverted
the question towards the taliban's ban
on facebook replying this question
should be asked to those people who are
claiming to be promoters of freedom of
speech do not allow publication of all
information
news i can ask the facebook company this
question should be asked to them
consequently trump jr tweeted that zabi
hula mujahid is quote not wrong when it
comes to facebook allegedly censoring
free speech indeed mujahed's statement
worryingly echoes trump jr's past
remarks regarding facebook supposedly
censoring his posts in march 2021 he
wrote on instagram which is owned by
facebook that like many conservatives
i've seen a huge unexplained drop in
engagement over the past few months on
here and numerous people have told me
they no longer see my posts in their
feeds however the washington post
previously reported that facebook
admitted to removing suppression of
trump jr's instagram account over
fact-checking issues thereby disputing
his ongoing tired against social media
censorship
when the taliban seized control of
afghanistan donald trump jr engaged in
bizarre diversionary tactics conflating
the crisis in afghanistan with so-called
woke culture he went on a rambling rant
against critical race theory inclusive
language and progressive pronouns in a
nonsensical tweet he declared i can only
assume that general milly was too busy
reading the latest crt literature and
learning about the 97 genders along with
their requisite pronouns to pay much
attention to such trivial matters this
is not the first time trump jr has
voiced his contempt for critical race
theory a right-wing wedge issue defined
by npr producer barbara sprunt as an
academic approach that examines american
institutions and laws through the lens
of race and racism trump jr seems to
find critical race theory threatening so
much so that he wrote an ominous email
for the conservative political action
committee
1776 project pac obtained by salon trump
jr wrote in the email the most dangerous
threats to our republic aren't hiding in
caves they're hiding in plain sight in
our k-12 classrooms they're training the
next generation to hate our country hate
our freedom and hate our constitution
age 78 when he took the oath joe biden
is the oldest person to have ever been
sworn in as u.s president but he's
actually not the first septuagenarian to
be appointed president there is just one
other man who was in his 70s upon
becoming potus that man is none other
than donald trump who was 70 at the time
of his inauguration in fact had trump
served two terms he would have been 78
by the end of his presidency this fact
doesn't seem to matter much to trump jr
who has resorted to increasingly odd
ageist insults against joe biden in an
interview on newsmax's chris salcedo
show in august 2021 trump jr referred to
biden as an old man on his last legs a
man that can't walk up a flight of
stairs an empty suit who can't complete
a sentence
donald trump jr can conjure a metaphor
of shakespearean proportions when he
needs to during an appearance on the
full send podcast he said between the
media sort of functioning as a
cheerleader for the other side and going
to such great lengths to simply protect
joe biden and the democrats i mean this
guy has like mashed potatoes for brains
trump jr's juvenile insult aside the
notion that the media is heavily
pro-democrat and ferverent in its bias
against conservatives is habitually
promoted by the right however studies
show that purported widespread media
bias against conservatives is a fallacy
marjorie hershey professor of political
science at indiana university argues in
the conversation research shows that
republicans and democrats spot bias only
in articles that clearly favor the other
party if an article tilts in favor of
their own party they tend to see it as
unbiased many people then define bias as
anything that doesn't agree with me as
hershey elucidates there are hundreds of
thousands of media outlets in the u.s if
you want a very conservative news site
it is not hard to find one and the same
with a very liberal news site
