Donald Trump Jr. took time out today to steal half of his daughter's Halloween candy. In an attempt to make a point, Jr. used his daughter as a political pawn and was taken to school for doing so. His tweet about socialism fell on deaf ears, and twitter world reminded him of the privileged life he and his family live. The best responses from his tweet follow.
I’m going to take half of Chloe’s candy tonight & give it to some kid who sat at home. It’s never to early to teach her about socialism. pic.twitter.com/3ie9C0jv2G

Or give it to a richer kid and use it as a lesson for @realDonaldTrump tax plan https://t.co/tkDV3Nrf4E

Or you could just take 99% of Chloe’s candy, eat it and tell her to wait for it to trickle down. https://t.co/B24iOoLXpU

Fill her bucket with old candy left by her great-grandfather, then explain that she has more because she's smarter than all the other kids. https://t.co/0lbhHYyFe4

My man, "socialism" was her getting that free candy in the first place. You taking half for reasons she can't understand is capitalism https://t.co/w9x9zB0xLA

When I was 5, I ran a high fever on Halloween & stayed home. A neighbor gave me half her candy, teaching me the value of compassion & generosity. https://t.co/J8bwYOnjFK

You teach her about nepotism and fraud everyday. I guess it’s good to teach socialism to mix it up. https://t.co/4sfaTueNc8

Calm down everyone. He's only joking.
He'd never really teach her that sharing is a good thing. https://t.co/RE6HsgnhCK— Ricky Gervais (@rickygervais) November 1, 2017
Or, as we like to call it in my house, sharing w those who have less. I think some of your followers call it, Christianity????

Take 80% of her candy and give it to the top 1% of trick or treaters. You know like your dads' tax plan.

You mean the candy that she got for free out of the goodness of strangers' hearts? 😂😂😂

Sick to use your kid for political ends.
