If there’s one piece of advice the entire Trump family could really stand to take to heart, it’s this: Stay off Twitter!
We have yet another perfect example of why the Trump clan needs to avoid social media like the plague, and it comes from Donald Trump, Jr. who decided to comment on the matter of the Comey memo stating that the alleged president asked the former FBI Director to lay off the Russia investigation and stop looking into disgraced National Security Adviser Michael Flynn:
Truth. https://t.co/g63Our339Z

Problem is, that link is to a tweet from Geraldo Rivera. Here’s what Rivera posted:
News Flash, @realDonaldTrump hoping @JamesComeyFBI cuts @MikeFlynn some slack because he is a 'good man' is not close to #Obstruction

Hmm. So did Donnie Jr. just confirm that the memo is real? NPR reporter Domenico Montanaro asked the Trump spawn if indeed he had just given an affirmative thumbs up to that fact:
So… are you confirming that @realDonaldTrump did, in fact, ask to cut Flynn some slack?

As is so typical for thin-skinned weasels like the Trump siblings, Junior quickly fired back:
Give me a break. Me agreeing with someone's interpretation of a theory does nothing of the sort. You're trying way to hard. https://t.co/znVhc5FhWd

That’s when Twitter went into overdrive and gave Donald Jr. the verbal beatdown he deserved:
Dude. My man. Crushing it. Though is it weird you're mostly a PR liability and at best you're a totally unappreciated Hype Man?

The noted legal mind that is Geraldo. The American people will be happy to give you a very long break when you're rotting in a jail cell Jr.

Aw did your daddy's lawyers give you a phone call after your major fuckup and ask you to post this backpedal?

What is it with people named Trump and the inability to keep their mouths shut? pic.twitter.com/elbj6b9C7w

If the White House press office wants to contain this story (good luck with that!), they might want to begin by confiscating the cell phones of everyone with the last name Trump.
