Donald Trump Jr. got an earful from social media users who encouraged him to “flip” and start cooperating with prosecutors before his sister Ivanka Trump does it after he shared his father’s criminal denials on Twitter.
Don Jr’s tweet came after New York attorney general Letitia James’ office announced its investigation of Trump Organization was now criminal, as well as civil.
The former president responded by lashing out in a lengthy statement from his blog, which his namesake son tweeted out.
Other users mocked — and fact-checked — Trump Jr.’s attempt to get his father’s message out on the social media platform, which has banned the twice-impeached one-term president over his election lies that led to the Jan. 6 insurrection.
Your best bet is to flip on his ass before Ivanka flips on all of you.

.@DonaldJTrumpJr You see the Statement starts with the heading "SAVE AMERICA". We Did, we fired the former guy before he could destroy our nation and voted for a true president who cares for every American and doesn't need to be praised every 5 minutes. Thank you @POTUS

Hahahahaha. My father fought in Korea worked an honest job and we were a happy family without worrying about DOJ charges. Your dad skipped out on Vietnam, had a terrible father that loaned him 1 million dollars and more than half of America doesn't like him.

His first sentence is a lie. He didn't find out in the media. He was told by NY AG, then it was released to the media.

Don't worry, Junior.
No one will believe your daddy when he tells the jury that you are the mastermind.— mpiatt🇺🇸 (@mpiatt3) May 19, 2021
