Donald Trump Jr. has a message for furious MAGA voters who are thinking about voting Democratic or not voting at all in the midterm elections, and he’s sharing his whiny plea with them now that early voting is set to begin in a few days.
On his podcast Triggered (which is the perfect word to describe any member of the Trump family whenever someone dares to disagree with them), Don Jr. whined, “Remember what we were dealing with under Biden. Remember the open border. Remember the BLM insanity, the tearing down statues, the canceling of anyone who wanted to celebrate Columbus Day, DEI madness, quite literally everywhere you looked. The lawfare, the phony indictments, the illegal spying, the mostly peaceful protests. Remember all of that?”
“So you all actually get the final say 28 days from now, which direction you want for this country, because I promise you, putting and giving these left-wing lunatics even an ounce more power will make it that much harder to build on all of these wins and actually make sure that it lasts into the future. So guys, think about that. Talk to your friends about it,” he added.
Junior also admitted that he knows many voters are upset.
“So I know you’re pissed off at some Republicans, I get it… You don’t like the war, I understand… You don’t like high gas prices, I get it,” he said.
“These other things, I get it, they’re not ideal, we want to fix it, but they take a little time,” Don Jr pleaded.
“Trust me. I get it. You’re not happy about gas right now, but all those things disappear. It does not balance out. It ends up being much, much worse.”
He again acknowledged the anger and frustration of voters: “Look, I’m not telling you to not be frustrated again, again about the gas prices. I’ve said it three times today.”
Don Jr’s excuses echo those made by his daddy during a campaign speech in Texas last Thursday.
“We have the greatest numbers of any president in the history of our country, and I can’t get the word out,” Trump said.
“The only thing we’re doing badly at is public relations,” he added. “Everyone thinks the prices are high because of me, but they’re not.”
Um, yes they are. After all, your old man is the one who imposed tariffs, which resulted in a trade war that continues to keep prices high on thousands of items bought by American consumers.
Also, the idiotic war with Iran has exacerbated the price of fuel — especially diesel, which is over $6 a gallon — and other products such as motor oil and gasoline. The war was one of choice, not necessity, despite Donnie’s fact-free claims of Iran being close to building a nuclear weapon.
Yes, voters are indeed pissed off, and they’re ready to take their frustrations out on Trump and his GOP enablers.
As for Don Jr., he’ll feel better once he snorts a few more rails of Peruvian Marching Powder.
