Donald Trump Jr. went full-throttle against the media Monday night, accusing outlets like Buzzfeed News, which broke the alleged Trump-Cohen Moscow Tower story, of trying to “subvert the democracy.”

“They have shot themselves in the foot time and time again, because they so desperately want this to be the truth, as opposed to saying, ‘You know what? Trump’s done a darn good job as President,’” he said to Fox News’ Laura Ingraham.

“The media right now is really trying to subvert this democracy,” he added. “They’ve done more to hurt the credibility of this country’s institution as a democracy than anything in history.”

  1. It’s not worth commenting on anything that Jr. says.

    But he does look better with the new beard.

  2. It is so cute that you are trying to avoid the Supermax while Daddy Dearest is considering the best time to throw you under the bus.

  3. Must be in trouble with daddy.

  4. Hillary Clinton won the most votes. So did Al Gore.

    We have no democracy to subvert.

    No democracy, no justice.
