While shouting, Kimberly Guilfoyle style (he never got over her) at Benny Johnson on the Benny Show, Don Jr. identified, by name, the newest domestic terror group in the…? Well, this rant was so unhinged it will need some serious, scholarly discourse analysis. Lacking a scholar, let me dissect the short segment of Junior’s episode of projectile oral diarrhea.
“…like the trans, you know, the radical, transgender movement uh, you know, is per capita the most violent uh, domestic terror threat, if not in America, the entire world uh, per capita. You have all these shooters or murderers or attempted murderers, you know, in such a tiny population of a country and yet they can’t…they’re beyond reproach Benny.”
If your eyes are glazed over at this masochistic rant, welcome to my world. Let’s parse this out while giving Junior the oratorical benefit of the doubt by ignoring the fillers like “uh” and “you know” as well as the frequent looks off into the distance in futile attempts to piece together a coherent sentence (for those who watch the video). As much as it pains me, I will step up to the plate, take one for the team, and unpack this Juniorism.
Suddenly, every known domestic terror group is superseded by the violent transgender people. Whew! It’s refreshing to know that the Proud Boys, Oath Keepers, Qanon, or the Ku Klux Klan have been downgraded to mere annoyances? Now there is only one group the FBI needs to focus on to keep us safe. 😵💫
I am unaware of the number of trans people there are in America in absolute numbers therefore cannot compute the number per capita. I would hazard to guess, Junior doesn’t either, unless he has hacked into the DOGE database of Trans R Us. But that’s not even worthy of my time to analyze. In the next breath, he dilutes the number of trans people in the U.S. by expanding it to the population of the entire world and suggesting it is more threatening to that broader population per capita. 🤯
The last sentence is the pièce de résistance. The violent nature of trans men and women is equated to shooters and murderers. This explains why the MAGA crowd is so hell bent on keeping trans athletes from competing in sports. They would make the straight athletes look like the pathetic specimens they are. He then describes the population of the U.S. as tiny? He ends the sentence with a flourish using “reproach” as malapropism for god knows what word. ☠️
Beam him up Scotty. There is no intelligent life on planet Trump.
The only response I can quickly come up with is WTF?!?!?
The acorn doesn’t fall far from the tree!
