Poor Donald Trump, Jr.. He will never live down being the eldest (but possibly not the dumbest) son of his idiot father, so he does his best to assume that everyone is as much trash as he and his family.
After all, the Trump family sells themselves every moment of every day, whether it's Daddy Donald screwing his $25 donors to pay legal fees for charges related to his possession and god-knows-what-he-did-with classified documents at Mar-a-Lago for he and his henchmen, or Don Jr's pathetic podcast full of promos.
Trumps are always willing to trade on their name at all times: Ivanka and her Chinese trademarks and Jared and his cozy investment management deal with the Saudis, or the Donald himself slapping his name on any hotel that'll still have him.
With that in mind, it's super rich to hear Junior twist around the facts of Devon Archer's testimony Monday to project his own family corruption on the Biden family.
"Devon Archer testified that Hunter Biden put then-Vice President Joe Biden on speakerphone 20 plus times to sell the brand in business discussions," Junior lied. Well, no. He testified that Hunter put then-Vice President Biden on the speakerphone to say howdy, actually, at a time where both father and son were grappling with Beau Biden's illness and death from cancer. There was no there, there.
"According to Archer," Trump Jr. fantasized, "Joe Biden was quote, the brand and that Burisma would have gone out of business if the brand had not been attached to it." This is just pure fantasy, the kind of thing the Trump family would do.
"It sounds like the Bidens are running some sort of like mafia-like business schemes, right?" he asked rhetorically. "Racketeering and such."
Maybe Junior should ask his daddy about the whole racketeering thing. He seems to know a lot about that.
