Fucker pulled the trigger, he's guilty.

(22,756 posts)but I reckon he knows what's up when a guy says I can make it easy for you to get that bear... I will not give Jr the benefit of the doubt

(11,767 posts)For a Twitter post. All staged canned hunts. Repulsive sewer waste. The stench of this Trump family continues to permeate every aspect of the news cycle. 🤬😢
May those animals rest in peace and honor.

(28,254 posts)I put the odds of trumpette not knowing about the baiting at about 1000:1. And he'll probably get away with it, as usual.

I need to take deep breaths every time I read of the horror he inflicts on our majestic animals.

Need I add: ?

(4,913 posts)It's not like hunting deer and eating what you killed. This type of hunting is like murder. It's killing just for killing sake. It makes weak men feel big and tough.

(2,357 posts)campaigning for 2016, photos were posted of Junior w/ a dead elephant (he was proudly grinning as he held the elephant's tail up to the camera) and Eric was pictured proudly wearing a dead leopard around his shoulders as if it was a mink stole. A friend of mine, a long-time hunter, said the background behind the Eric/leopard photo appeared to be a canned hunt location.
These guys think they're manly men, but they're cowards. And they know full well what they're doing because those hunts are very expensive. The "guide" has a history of hosting these hunts back to at least 2009.
The Utah Investigative Journalism Project in 2018 requested DNR files on those hunting trips back to 2009. They received files "EXCEPT for the case on the 2018 Trump Jr hunt."
Think more publicity should be given these hunts. Even Republican women I know would likely be outraged.
