“YOU ABSOLUTE LUNATICS” – Donald Trump Jr goes berserk as Robert Mueller gets Jr’s perjury transcript
Donald Trump Jr doesn’t exactly live in reality. Even as the Trump-Russia criminal case against him has inched closer to completion, he’s spent his days arrogantly spouting nonsensical conspiracy theories on Twitter, bragging that this phony nonsense somehow makes him and his father’s racist base morally superior to Democrats and liberals. But a new development today helped cement that Junior is going to prison, and we think perhaps he finally got the message.
The House Intelligence Committee announced today that it will vote on Wednesday morning to hand over Donald Trump Jr’s apparently perjury-filled transcripts to Special Counsel Robert Mueller. The Democrats will win this vote based on their majority status alone. Even if Junior thinks he can beat the more complex espionage-like charges he’ll be facing, even he presumably knows that no one beats perjury charges when the evidence is there to prove it. Right around the time this news broke today, Junior completely broke.
Donald Trump Jr had spent the morning smugly criticizing the Washington Post for its Super Bowl ad, while insisting that Brett Kavanaugh was somehow mistreated by the media. But after the news surfaced about Junior’s perjury transcript going to Mueller, his tone changed sharply.
Junior suddenly retweeted this exasperated message that one of his fans had tweeted several days earlier: “The definition of privilege is thinking that socialism is better than capitalism YOU ABSOLUTE LUNATICS.” This doesn’t sound like a guy who still thinks he’s having a good day.
So there you have it. Even though Donald Trump Jr didn’t acknowledge the news about Robert Mueller having him nailed, he decided it was the right time to plaster “YOU ABSOLUTE LUNATICS” across his timeline. You can interpret that however you want, but we’re taking it as a sign that Junior has finally figured out he’s hosed.
