Donald Trump Jr., the president’s eldest son, drew a wave of online ridicule after complaining that Democrats want to make Ohio a state.

Trump Jr. made the remark Monday while actually in the Buckeye State to campaign for Republican candidates.

“They want to, what is it? Save democracy by destroying democracy,” Trump Jr. said of Democrats. “They wanna pack the Supreme Court. They wanna make Ohio a state, make D.C. a state, have permanent one-party rule.”

    Eh, Republicans always fearmonger about what Democrats are supposedly going to do. Like “socialism” (or “communism”) or whatever. They’re gonna take your guns, they’re gonna raise your taxes, etc etc etc.

      They absolutely do want to take your guns. My state just banned the most popular handgun in the world. The choice between D and R is a choice of which rights you’re willing to lose first.

          Yeah, and a little over a month ago you could also purchase Glocks. Rights don’t disappear overnight. They’re chipped away at a little at a time until everyone forgets they existed in the first place.
