Donald Trump Jr.'s July 4 Message Is Being Roasted On Twitter.

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/donald-trump-jr-s-july-4-message-is-being-roasted-on-twitter/ar-AAZ7Erv?ocid=msedgdhp&pc=W046&cvid=b41234452885459b906fe18e6486f82e

To his credit, Donald Trump Jr.'s holiday message was simple and uncontroversial. He tweeted, "Happy 4th of July America," followed by three American flag emojis. However, apart from the lack of punctuation, the tweet had just one teeny flaw: he posted it on July 1, three days early. Twitter rushed to set the former first son straight. "Today's the 1st, Einstein," replied a follower. Another respondent followed up, "His math has never been good. His timing even worse." One commenter had a simple wish: "Just go away. That is what America wants for this birthday."

Many responders noted the irony of celebrating the holiday just days after the reversal of Roe v. Wade, a decision that will have far-reaching effects for the country. Several replied with the meme, "4th of July has been canceled due to a shortage of independence. Sincerely, Women." Then there was the person who took issue with Trump Jr. calling the holiday "July 4." They posted a meme saying, "Remember, it's INDEPENDENCE DAY, not the 4th of July. We celebrate sweet liberty and the founding fathers, not a calendar date."

Still, Trump Jr. did have a few supporters. One pointed out that the holiday falls on a long weekend in 2022, so he might be busy on the 4th. "Everyone says it logging off for the end of the week. How's this a criticism to celebrate freedom for 3 days? Should be celebrated 365."

Has anyone ever known a Trump to be too busy to "tweet" at any time of day or night, 365? I haven't. Jr. is a chip of the old blockhead: totally self-absorbed and completely unaware of things going on around him.
