Donald Trump Jr. has “written” a “book” called Triggered. It is about, you guessed it, how liberal snowflakes make him cry when they criticize his treasonous dips–t assface family. The less said about any of this, the better. But here we are. Dipsh-t is on a book tour and he’s hustling hard. This week, he already tried to out the anonymous whistleblower whose report “triggered” the impeachment inquiry. Dipsh-t also appeared on The View yesterday with his girlfriend Kimberly Guilfoyle. Please don’t make me watch these videos:
I trust that some of The View’s women did some good work. I watched approximately 30 seconds of these videos. That was enough for me. If you want me to talk with any substance on Dipsh-t and Botox Bitch, I cannot. People Magazine did some coverage here. The Hollywood Reporter also had a good read from someone who was in the audience about what happened during the show and in the commercial breaks. It sounds like a barn-burner. But… was it worth it? Is it worth it to even give Dipsh-t any sliver of legitimacy?
Also: Dipsh-t’s book recalls a visit to Arlington National Cemetery, where he thought about how much he and his family have already sacrificed:
President-elect Trump and the new first family were at Arlington National Cemetery, where Trump was to lay a wreath on the Tomb of the Unknowns.
“I rarely get emotional, if ever,” Trump Jr. wrote in his new book, “Triggered: How the Left Thrives on Hate and Wants to Silence Us.” “Yet, as we drove past the rows of white grave markers, in the gravity of the moment, I had a deep sense of the importance of the presidency and a love of our country.”
He also had another revelation as he watched his father standing in front of the tomb, surrounded by more than 400,000 graves, listening to the Army Band bugler playing taps: The Trump family had already suffered, he recalled thinking, and this was only the beginning.
“In that moment, I also thought of all the attacks we’d already suffered as a family, and about all the sacrifices we’d have to make to help my father succeed — voluntarily giving up a huge chunk of our business and all international deals to avoid the appearance that we were ‘profiting off the office,’” Trump Jr. wrote.
The book bills itself as a 300-page evisceration of PC culture — “the book that leftist elites don’t want you to read,” its Amazon page twice crows. In it, Trump Jr. writes, “A victimhood complex has taken root in the American left.” Yet, in his telling, the real victim is often him, his father or another Trump family member.
Imagine standing on that sacred ground, where soldiers from the Civil War, World War I, World War II, the Korean War, the Vietnam War and the modern wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have been laid to rest in peace and dignity. And imagine standing there thinking about how your own treasonous bone-spur non-veteran father became president because Vladimir Putin thought your dad would be super-easy to manipulate, and you confuse that with “sacrifice.” Congrats, Dipsh-t.
Getting ready to go on The View with @kimguilfoyle to talk about #Triggered.
I'm handing my Twitter account off to my team during the interview so they can tweet out the best moments.
Be sure to tune in because this will be a good one, you won't want to miss it!!! pic.twitter.com/vyhtaOQ277

She is starting to look like step mama. So he’s got that going for him….
Ha! Not even a lie. As a CA resident, I’ve never been a huge Newsom fan – in part because he has the same douche-bro greased back hair look all these guys do, in part because he was married to this woman, and primarily because I’ve found his progressive work more performative than based in genuine values (and it’s not that hard to find genuine, salt of the earth progressives here in NorCal) – but as Trump increases his war against CA, I’ve been really impressed with Newsom’s responses and more and more supportive of him as governor. Still, seeing little Donnie with Newsom’s ex-wife reminds me of how accurate the billionaire world depicted in Succession is. They all travel in the same circles. And that terrifies me.
@BettyRose
Long term NorCal and SoCal resident here. Agree completely. It’s all a game to them. Until they get Jeffrey Epstein’d. Then they get their just due, but not enough of them do, in my opinion.
OT: if anyone’s interested, web search the real reasons for the NorCal fires, especially Paradise, CA.
Kimmy should really lay off the fillers and botox. She barely looks recognizable here.
She’s emulating the Cheshire Cat. May she disappear leaving nothing but a smile.
But her response @ being in the bathroom when The Offspring was outing the whistleblower? She’s perfect the sidekick for this gross family. They’re the right wing version of Sid & Nancy. Bleeeccchhh
I wish shows would stop giving these a$sholes a platform to spout their nonsense.
I think about the fact that there are people who still think that anything women say is nonsense, or equality is nonsense, and to ban anyone from speaking is dangerous. So I let the idiots speak and out themselves and their own crap, because they’ll expose their incompetencies, while giving platforms in the future to people who may also be viewed as nonsense but are really world changing.
If he’s a twat waffle, it’ll show.
On the contrary, I think it is, in fact, extremely dangerous to give uninformed, ignorant, and outright vicious people a platform to disseminate their views. Freedom of speech only protects people against the government’s infringement on speech, which it should, but there’s no responsibility of the media or privately owned sectors to give “equal time” to people who peddle false narratives for their own agenda.
I would, in fact, argue that media capitalizing on the spectacle of Donald Trump is a large part of why he’s in the White House. Had they simply refused to give him the attention he craved and treated him like the incompetent dullard he actually is, we may not be here.
Veronica, I do see your point though, and it is a scary concept to navigate.
I agree with both of you. I’m a big believer in giving idiots room to speak to remove all doubt of their idiocy, but OTOH, celebrity power is undeniable. The larger a platform someone has, the more valid they start to seem. Gah. Remind me when the criminal trials begin?
Agree with Veronica. Stop giving these grifters a platform. I bet if the press decided not to do the helicopter- standby- daily -yelling by Trump-he’d stop doing that shit. The View are a bunch of idiots too-this is what they came up with for a big anniversary show? Pathetic. Megan McCain should STFU too- maybe if her Father hadnt introduced Sarah Palin to the world, the future political bar would not have been set so low, as to allow this fool and his family, to flourish.
@Patrizio
McCain had Palin forced upon him by Dubya’s puppet strings (Rove, Cheney, Rummy, et al. … puke). I forget who he really wanted… somebody remind me. But your point is well taken.
I knew when Palin was announced that Doughboy et al were allowing Obama to be the 8 year placeholder while they beefed up their evil behind the scenes.
@Escondita: I completely agree. Anything for ratings, I guess.
I’m with Kaiser; I can’t even watch the clips because I know my blood pressure will shoot up. He is as bad as his father. I despise this entire family so much I can’t even take it.
Hate speech isn’t free speech- we have to remember that when colleges pay our tuition to hire racists & pedophiles. If your speech de-humanizes and incites prejudicial violence, it’s not FREE SPEECH.
better not to watch. little could be heard anyway, because he just could not stop talking and interrupting. very aggressive.
migraine inducing. the written recaps are good.
he’s a little shit.
Yep I read there was a lot of yelling and he talked over everyone.
I bet his first wife feels like she dodged a bullet.
How did she dodge a bullet? She squirted more trumps out into the world is what she did.
You are right on that one… I just would be glad to be no longer married to someone who has over and over proved what/who they are and seems to be escalating. The thought of ever being with someone like that is a bit much to fully think about this early in the morning.
Agreed
What an ugly sight to wake up to. Loathsome, disgusting, rotten creatures. The Dump family makes me hope there is some godlike essence that will mete out ultimate justice, since the earthly justice system won’t do to them what they deserve.
It’s amazing one family can have so many sociopaths.
Here’s the issue…they’re hateful entitled trust-funders who sell their wealthy entitled hate–to the the poorest Americans???
“A victimhood complex has taken root in the American left.” – says the Right Wing douche who got offended when Starbucks took Merry Christmas off their red cups and thinks Christians are being persecuted because they can’t deny business to gay folks.
Nobody’s better at victimhood complexes than the Evangelical Right.
THIS
Preach
Exactly. The irony of the endlessly grievance-driven Trumps calling someone else victims threatens to blow my mind once and for all.
Listening to Junior, he sounds simultaneously angry, defensive, scared and unsure yet overconfident. He seems well on his way to his dad’s way of responding with a word salad of lies. He’s a disgrace, a mess, a stain. He looked unwell, which gives me a measure of satisfaction.
And don’t get me started on his girlfriend. I just read a theory that she’s only with him to advance her career. Which seems to check out as you observe their dynamic. Yikes, I hope it’s worth it.
Fork tongued simpering Kimberly Gulfoyle plays both sides for her career. She married Gavin Newsom way back when he was a well connected up and comer (pre-San Francisco mayor). How she pimped herself out to Fox News I don’t care to think about.
I haven’t used the word “simpering” in a long time but that was my immediate thought of the last photo. These two are right up there with the slimiest, most offensive and pathetic American show pony couples.
I read elsewhere that she only got involved with him as she wanted the Press Sec job for Daddy. She wanted in the White House.
This greasy turd hasn’t stepped in a church until his idiot father became president. Now all of a sudden they believe in God? Please. You can’t pray the sins away too.
It’s fascinating really. The cater to the poorest evangelical base w that fake God thing AND give tax breaks to the uber wealthy. They shore up the vote on extreme ends of the spectrum- the poor are duped & the wealthy just want more wealth.
The media needs to stop booking this fool for interviews. Let them say their crap on fox but no one else needs to help sell this stupid book that he never wrote anyway. There is no reasoning with people like this. Getting attention is the win for them and so the non crazy fox media needs to shun him and the entire family.
Seriously f-ck this entire classless, gutless piece of garbage family.
Who the literal f-ck looks at the graves of people who sacrificed EVERYTHING for their country and compares their cowardly ass draft dodging family to THAT.
Funny how so many rethugs basically get off to “WEE SUPPPOORRT THE TROOOPS” but allow this circus sideshow act of a family to CONSTANTLY disrespect the people they claim to love. And it’s like… you’re really going to use THAT media tactic during the lead up to Remembrance/Veterans Day
Don’t forget diverting military funds for the wall to nowhere or cheese grater wall! Complicit Barbie tweeted how unfair it was that Bidens capitalized on Joe’s career and people tweeted back how was her Chinese trademarks.
He compares the ultimate sacrifice (dying horrifically in a war, away from all your family, on a loud and bloody battlefield, surrounded by other people who are dying terrifying deaths) to his family’s “huge sacrifice” of not being able to make the most money for four years. And they’re not even abiding by that “sacrifice.” They are absolutely using the presidency for financial gain and profit, and are even now forcing the taxpayer to pick up their travel and security costs every time they travel abroad to mix “presidential business” and Trump Company business. So first of all, how does he even claim that they’re not profiting with a straight face? Second of all, even if they really had given up all control of their company and were being extra careful not to profit off the presidency, how is that even a sacrifice? They’re just not getting any new revenue streams, they’re not being asked to give away the money they already have. They’re still making money on their current Trump shit and their money is making more money just by sitting in banks. The only thing they’re not doing is entering into new deals for four years. “Waaaa, I’m only making some money, I’m not making THE MOST money I could!!!” And third, if we’re really going to consider “I’m not making the most money possible” as a sacrifice, how is that even remotely equitable to dying in a war?
I tip my hat to you Amy too. You took the words right out of my mouth and spared me a great bit of typing.
Why are his beady, little eyes so red?
Cocaine or Daddy’s Adderall.
The two recent times I’ve watched him speak, I’ve noticed that. It’s probably drugs but it gives the effect of making him seem on the verge of tears. He’s utterly repulsive.
They both look so high… wacked out. It was the 1st thing I noticed bc it is so obvious. Hers look like slits & are barely opened.
Up until lard ass got a seat in the WH, he looked fairly normal. Now he lost weight and sort of looks weird in the eyes. It would not surprise me if he’s on something.
I could only watch a few seconds. But enough to hear him say he’s a private citizen! Private citizens don’t get booked on the View. And for him to defend tweeting an article with the whistleblower’s name is just unbelievable. What if someone were to go after the whistleblower ? They’re basically calling their dogs to attack by doing this! Btw, dump jr is supposed to be in my area today. Our boss mentioned it at our staff meeting to let us know traffic might be bad. San Destin FL. 🤢
Joanna, I feel for you but I am glad he is in San Destin, Florida and not Tampa, Florida! LOL! LOL!
Lol
Better San Destin than Mobile. Hold your nose. He’ll stink up the place, that pound of hair grease is very aromatic.
Funny how he’s a private citizen who can do what he wants, but Hunter Biden was the VP’s son…
And he cried that he wished his name was Hunter too. Big fat baby.
*voluntarily giving up a huge chunk of our business and all international deals to avoid the appearance that we were ‘profiting off the office,’ ”
This lie makes me want to puke. And I will not watch the videos either. I’ll listen to or read summaries – not that I need any more details about his opportunistic, treasonous family. He always looks like a deer in headlights.
Your final paragraph is Brilliant Kaiser.
Dumb and Dumber went to Dubai only last year to meet with their “business partner” and to visit some of the Trump properties there! Do they not realise people have memories/Google to confirm their “no international deals” BS??
And here I was thinking that Triggered is about the need for gun control and about all the senseless deaths caused by this gun loving society we live in.
Or better yet about the hardships of sexual assault survivors when they hear that men in power get away with what they’ve been doing for years (even to become presidents).
Ha Ha right.
Ha. When I saw the title I thought it was so fitting for a guy whose only mission seems to be “owning the libs.” He’s such an unbelievable tool.
I watched it yesterday on Youtube. It all got very, very heated.
Honestly you really can’t understand what anyone was saying!! It was ridiculous how he (and others there) just kept talking over one another! I agree – Kaiser your summary was brilliant!
Seriously F him! I have 2 family members buried at Arlington & for this sniveling grifter to equate his crime family’s “sacrifices” to that of those who gave their LIVES for this country is unconscionable.
I didn’t thing I could loathe these people more, I was wrong
This is all part of the circus. Having them on there normalizes them. Now we’re all clowns. I don’t find this funny or interesting and you couldn’t pay me to click on the videos. That’s what they want. Our culture is so degraded.
Honestly- screw the producers of the show for bringing these fucknuts on the show. They knew exactly what would happen and they were counting on the viewer numbers.
By all rights Moron Junior and his Melania fembot shouldn’t voluntarily be getting invitations from anyone other than Fox News.
I guess the View thought this was a good way to up their ratings. He is a malignant narcissist just like his father, so he thought the View would be nice to him. Donald Jr is also desperate for his father’s approval and will say anything to get it. He has no moral compass. Kimberly was there to hold his hand. I heard on Don Lemon last night he calls her mamacita. That is a strange nickname for your girlfriend. Also, he wrote a book???
It’s because she is Latina which makes it infinitely more gross
Is she? When she was married to Gavin the press said she was Irish. Too bad Ana Cardenas wasn’t on there yesterday. She would eviscerate him.
Yes in the video she refers to herself as mamacita in 3rd person. Although I could only make it through the first video, I was impressed at the amount of damage control Kim was able to pull… Like she’s used to taking bull and spinning it into something coherient.
I had no idea that she is such a political social climber. Wondering when she’s gonna write a book
Anyone who can walk into Arlington and not feel overwhelming sadness FOR OTHERS is a straight-up self-absorbed shell of a human being.
His quote about rarely getting emotional, if ever, and then talking about how YET there he was, feeling feelz about a love for our country. What a moron! So basically confirming that he had never felt patriotic before and this is all a show to con poor white voters.
And also, DAMN does he not own any whitening eye drops? He looks high as a kite! If I showed up for work like that, I’d probably be sent for a drug and alcohol test.
LMAO
‘Please don’t make me want this.’
‘I watched approximately 30 seconds of these videos. That was enough for me. If you want me to talk with any substance on Dipsh-t and Botox Bitch, I cannot.’
Ha!
Y’all, I cannot with the full quote about how he “rarely gets emotional:” “I rarely get emotional, if ever. I guess you’d call me hyper-rational, stoic. Yet as we drove past the rows of white grave markers, in the gravity of the moment, I had a deep sense of the importance of the presidency and a love of our country …”
No, Uday, I would not call you hyper-rational, since your grip on reality is tenuous, nor would I call you stoic since you never stop whining about the mean Democrats, whom most Americans support investigating your family’s incessant crime-doing and grifting.
BRB laughing endlessly at this dork.
Most pictures of this guy he seems to be trying to look tough but ends up looking like he’s holding in a massive wet fart
I just fast forwarded to the part where Whoopi shut them down 15 minutes early.
Ok, here goes:
“voluntarily giving up business to avoid the appearance of profiting from the office”- Good point. We all know the Dump family can’t turn a profit. It must be embarrassing to declare bankruptcy so often. Oh wait, “embarrassment” is probably one of those emotions he doesn’t feel.
Asking a staff member to post the highlights on Twitter: I hope they took an extended lunch break during the interview.
His book promotion says that leftist elites don’t want people to read the book. Has he read the book? Does he want to? I actually want people to read the book so he can be mocked for it for the rest of his life.
Someone should do a highly dramatic reading of his crayon book in Youtube.
Can not wait to see Jr. and his klan heading off to classes on how to, um, gee…NOT STEAL from charity. That was a much needed victory anyway. I mean, the President of the United States, his Senior Advisor Ivanka (???) and his two sons that are leading his campaign off to class publicly in how not to steal from those in need. And this is supposed to be acceptable? UNBELIEVABLE. That should be all over the media (sigh), Makes a good talking point for us though, and totally valid. Keep working everybody, this show has to end.
He issued a denial after he entered into a settlement which said he stole from charity too. What an asshole. I hope judge ups the penalty.
Hope they make a reality TV series of them attending these classes. Hello, Netflix!
Why is this not bigger news though?
You know what makes me emotional you phony, lying, sniveling little sack of sh*t? Remembrance Day. Because my dad fought in WWII. He flew bombing missions over North Africa, fighting Rommel’s troops. He got shot down, nearly got caught by the Germans, how he managed to survive 2 missions is a miracle. And so every Remembrance Day I wear my red poppy and cry at the parade, big snotty wet tears because my dad was so brave and I miss him so badly. He was the real deal, a defender of people, a true gentleman and the best dad I could have ever had.
You and the grifting, selfish, cowardly troop of baboons you call your family, who have the GALL to call yourselves good Americans, DON’T have “a deep sense of the importance of the presidency and a love of our country”. All you have is a faulty gene pool that’s turned you all into a den of thieves, and your disgusting sleazebag of a father is ruining the very country you say you stand for just so you can fill your grifting pockets. There’s a special place in hell for people like you.
@Jaded
👏👏👏👏👏👏
I’m so sorry for your loss. You are justifiably very proud. My dad and 2 uncles served in WWII as well. They were full of stories when I was a kid. One uncle was at Normandy (Navy). As an adult I now more fully understand what they each went through for 6-8 long years. Thank you for such an eloquent post. 😥
Dang I just love all the caring, eloquent, educated, people here at CB. We can be shallow AND be idealistic and informed, and share and learn from each other. I’ve been here as a lurker and poster for years. CB rarely disappoints. 👍
🙂 I agree
Soupie, I’m glad you’re not just lurking anymore. And I’m not sure why but your name cracks me up. 🙂
Thank you Meg and Esmom 🤗
and Soupie is my significant other’s nickname for me. I call him that too. 😁
Dear JR: please stop with the “Daddy, please love me” pleas. It ain’t gonna happen; he’s only out for himself, uses everyone for his own needs and thinks everyone, aside from him, is disposable. Stop embarrassing yourself with this neediness and concentrate on doing something productive with your life like learning what the word “sacrifice” means, especially in the context of Arlington National Cemetery. No one in your family has come close to understanding the concept and your use of the word truly makes a mockery of those who have truly given everything to protect this country and your right to spout whatever word vomit you can cough up.
I like the guy and his dad.
Awwww…..Whoopi can’t hide her dislike. It’s like having to sit in a room full of creepy crawlies and rats slithering around. It’s all she can do to sit in one place, but the revulsion is firmly plastered on her face.
Why do you cover these enameled losers? Seriously, why?
If they are not going to call him out on his b.s. then why have him and his opportunist on the show? They say they “sacrificed” financial opportunities in order to avoid people pointing fingers yet in the early days of his Presidency the Almighty Orange One proclaimed that he was stepping aside from his business dealings but his two sons would be running business as usual? So which one is it? Did they forego lucrative business deals or are they raking in money hand over orange fist? Let’s review a bit. Don Jr. is currently on a book tour spewing venom to convince everyone the Media is evil and people on the left spread “hate”. Last time I checked book publishers send you on book tours to make money. Ivanka had a bit of income after Kellyanne Conway told America to go buy her junk. There’s income right there. Big Donnie has been selling rooms to leaders of the free world since he got in office and he’s now trying to fill in the gaps like booking trying to book the G7 summit at his Miami resort during the month of August when occupancy is at it’s lowest. The only reason any money making comes to a stop is because they are all under a microscope and they cannot stand the fact that the media is watching their every move. They have to say the media is evil and fake because that is the only defense they have as more and more corruption is uncovered.
It’s hard to believe it has been three years of this obvious, ongoing money grab. Remember when it was claimed that trophy wife was upset that she could not make money from her new role?
Are those matching veneers?
