I had the title wrong. “In Praise of Nepotism” by Adam Bellow.
Much more fitting title.

Didn’t care for his dad, either.

Here’s the thing, Madame Speaker:

repugnicans don’t give a flying _ _ _ _ about democracy.

Capitalism is their ‘golden calf’.

My, my, my, Junior sure is oily.

If you were Hunter you would have brain cells.

As I’ve said before, if it wasn’t for Fred Trump’s money, Donald Trump and his sons would be selling fake Rolex watches to tourists on Times Square.

Ah… the shit doesnt roll far from the pile does it…

reggid · October 31, 2019, 2:47pm

Apparently, no one told Junior not to go full retard.

I never knew cognitive dissonance could become a full blown ideology.

carlosfiance · October 31, 2019, 2:52pm

My first knowledge of him was the photo of him holding up the elephant´s tail, gleefully.

I´ve hated them (him and Eric) with an unabiding passion ever since.

JorgeP · October 31, 2019, 2:53pm

Whatever - some guy is defending his dad. I can’t stand the Trump spawn but I get them defending their dad. All signs point to him providing them with excellent, 1 percenter childhoods and propping them up as adults.

I’m much more disgusted by Hannity or Graham. They don’t share genes or familial bonds with Trump.

emiliano4 · October 31, 2019, 2:54pm

Crude, tasteless, boring and predictable…

And useless anyway…

ralph_vonholst · October 31, 2019, 2:56pm

About as much self awareness in that boy as in a primitive sessile marine organism.

I would bet good money Junior collected and displayed nazi memorabilia in his bedroom growing up instead of toys like normal children, that daddy dearest thought was a totally acceptable pastime. There’s something serious off with this guy.

This is what happens to children raised and influenced by a parent with a sociopathic personality. Sad.

“If I took a no-show job for $83,000 a month for a business I knew nothing about, in a language I didn’t speak, in a corrupt country like the Ukraine where my dad says we’re going to withhold billions of taxpayer dollars if you don’t get rid of the prosecutor investigating me, the media would end themselves, Sean,” Trump Jr. said, adding that the media would “have an aneurysm.”

Except, of course, none of that happened with the Bidens. And the media has not had an aneurysm merely reporting the truth about your corrupt crime family

But, continue to enjoy the fact that the special counsel did not think you were smart enough to charge you with a crime. They say that ignorance of the law is not an excuse. But, in the case of your total ignorance about the law and everything else, Mueller made a quite charitable exception.

ETA: Wait. Did I say charitable? Sorry. I’m sure you don’t know what that means either.

jonney_5 · October 31, 2019, 2:58pm

That is pretty rich. I’ll give him that.

tsp · October 31, 2019, 3:02pm

Hey Jr…

carlosfiance · October 31, 2019, 3:07pm

Well, I get your point. But Jr. has visions of grandeur, and it would not surprise me at all if we find him running for, say, the Senate from Montana. He needs to be crushed early and often.
