Donald Trump Jr., the president’s eldest son, drew a wave of online ridicule after complaining that Democrats want to make Ohio a state.

Trump Jr. made the remark Monday while actually in the Buckeye State to campaign for Republican candidates.

“They want to, what is it? Save democracy by destroying democracy,” Trump Jr. said of Democrats. “They wanna pack the Supreme Court. They wanna make Ohio a state, make D.C. a state, have permanent one-party rule.”

    “If I had a bowl of Skittles and I told you just three would kill you,” Trump Jr. wrote on Twitter in September 2016, Reuters reported. “Would you take a handful? That’s our Syrian refugee problem.” The maker of Skittles objected to the post, the news agency reported.

    So trump is making an argument against 100% of immigrants, not just those from Syria. That stands in direct conflict with his policy of increased white South African refugees. Musk, as white South African immigrant, is projected to be responsible for over 14 million deaths by 2030 because of his work in DOGE destroying USAID. That’s one shitty Skittle, but I see trump doing nothing about it.
