If there’s anything the Trump family as a whole is good at, it’s projecting. Meaning, if someone in the Trump clan is making accusations against someone else, you can pretty much bet your bottom dollar it’s something they either have done or are actively doing. I don’t really care what it is. It seems to be the Trump family’s way of tattling on themselves without really tattling on themselves.
So, it’s safe to say that Don Jr.’s recent outburst has us all wondering what the eldest Trump son has been up to lately.
On the heels of his father’s disastrous debate against Democratic nominee Joe Biden, during which the president launched an absolutely disgusting attack against Biden’s son Hunter’s old substance abuse problem, daddy’s namesake did his very best to keep the horrific narrative alive — ultimately referring to Hunter Biden as a “crackhead.”
Jr. made the comment during a segment on Glenn Beck’s radio show, where he doubled down on his father’s claim that Hunter was dishonorably discharged from the military — a blatantly false statement, as Hunter did test positive for cocaine during his time in the service, but did not receive a dishonorable discharge.
And it certainly didn’t take long for the oldest Trump spawn to attempt to tie it all into Hunter’s supposed connection to Russia. (See what I mean about projection?)

“I mean, Hunter Biden, has now a tie, a direct tie to Vladimir Putin,” Jr. declared, “and you don’t think they would use that over crackhead Hunter?”

While the Biden campaign hasn’t directly responded to Jr.’s disgusting statement, Joe himself made his feelings on the subject very well known during the debate, saying, “My son, like a lot of people, like a lot of people you know at home, had a drug problem. He’s overtaken it. He’s fixed it. He’s worked on it, and I’m proud of him.”
However, social media wasted no time in going for Jr.’s through on Biden’s behalf:

Aside from being mean, @DonaldJTrumpJr is completely lacking in self-awareness. That apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.

@realdonatrumpjr has had substance abuse issues since he was young. Having such a dysfunctional family with a genetic predisposition to substance abuse will be difficult for him in prison. pic.twitter.com/lAdRz9WgHm

That’s a full plate of words for him to eat when he is dragged off to rehab in a straitjacket.

Dude, your daddy’s been ‘roid-raging all over Twitter for days. But may.
