Yesterday, Joe Biden made a statement after terror attacks outside Kabul airport claimed around 90 lives.

The emotional president paid tribute to the at least 13 US troops who are believed to have been killed and said that he would continue evacuating people from the country. He added: We will not forgive. We will not forget. We will hunt you down and make you pay and asked people to join him in a minutes silence to remember the troops.

While it was a moving moment for some, one Donald Trump Jr decided to mock the president and took to Twitter to proclaim: This is what weakness looks like.

And unsurprisingly, people thought his comment was tasteless and profoundly ridiculous, and were quick to put him in his place:

Even his cousin, Mary Trump, had some stern words for Jr.

It is not the first time the former presidents sons coverage of the Afghanistan crisis has failed to hit the mark. Recently, he appeared to side with the Taliban when they were censored from Facebook though he was defending social media libertarianism rather than the actual Taliban.

Nevertheless, as he was roasted then, he was roasted now.

Oh dear, Donald Trump Jr. When will you learn?

Donald Trump Jr accused an emotional Joe Biden of looking weak and it massively backfired - indy100

I never got any blowback, and Im sure I had a ton of it, he said. But I dont pay attention to that stuff. I didnt see any of it.

Nicklaus said that Trump had Vice President Mike Pence make the ask.

Pence said the president knows youll do it, but he didnt feel right about it, Nicklaus said. I told him Id be delighted to write a letter. You have to stand up for what you believe in, and I think he did a really, really good job. Did he do it perfectly? Forget the way he talks, his personality. I thought he backed up what he said he would do.

Trump, he added, has been a friend for years, Ive built golf courses for him, and to support him was not difficult. Ive voted for Republicans and a ton of Democrats, too. I vote for the person and how they do. And Id write a letter for the right Democrat, too.

Nicklaus also was grateful to Trump, who had Mark Meadows, Trumps chief of staff, help get a provision written into the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the Cares Act) that provided support for free-standing childrens hospitals that initially were not included in the bill.

He went to bat for us, Nicklaus said. There were 28 free-standing childrens hospitals, and they got $50 million apiece. They were losing money during COVID, and it really helped. I couldnt help but support the guy.

Donald Trump Jr. had some strong feelings after President Joe Bidens Thursday remarks on the Kabul airport bombing in Afghanistan, and his comments are evoking more sympathy than hed probably hoped. Biden spoke at the White House on Thursday evening in wake of the news that explosions at Hamid Karzai International Airport had killed at least 13 U.S. service members and 90 Afghans, and the President did not maintain the kind of stoicism Trump Jr. had apparently hoped for in wake of the news, opting instead to be open in his grief for the lives lost and referencing his own late son Beau Bidens service in Iraq as a reminder of how indelibly he feels the pain of military families grieving this loss. We are outraged as well as heartbroken, Biden said from the East Room. From wherever he was watching, Trump Jr. tweeted out a photo of the President hunched over, visibly distressed: This is what weakness looks like.

In his remarks, Biden acknowledged the grief of the moment while vowing retribution for the lives lost. To those who carried out this attack, as well as anyone who wishes America harm, know this: We will not forgive, he said. We will not forget. We will hunt you down and make you pay.

But Bidens comment still were evidently not macho enough for Trump Jr., who also mocked Congressman Adam Schiff and Metropolitan police officer Michael Fanone for their emotional testimonies in July on their experiences of the Jan. 6 Capitol riots. Trump Jr. retweeted two videos of the men sharing their stories and becoming visibly upset, one captioned Rep. @AdamSchiff pretends to cry during 1/6 hearing and the other Wonder how many times he practiced this.

Trump Jr.s comments here also bring to mind the negative right-wing response to a photo of President Joe Biden kissing adult son Hunter Biden that circulated in Oct. 2020, widely retweeted with former NYPD officer John Cardillos caption: Does this look like an appropriate father/son interaction to you?

Like Trump Jr.s comments this week, Cardillos comments were met with swift backlash lamenting the inability of these two and their supporters to recognize the value in adult men openly expressing their emotions and allowing themselves to be vulnerable a trait many commenters attributed to Cardillo and Trump Jr.s own fathers not having set a good enough example for their sons.

Don Jr is what happens when you dont hug your kid once in a while, one retweet read. When you tell them to suck it up when they get hurt. When you teach them that the only goal in life is monetary. When you teach them winning is everything. When you basically void their life of empathy.

In the wake of this weeks events, we dont mind seeing a President who tells us its okay to grieve. With five kids of his own, Trump Jr. may want to consider carefully the message hes sending about who is and isnt allowed to be human.

Donald Trump Jr. Once Again Objected to Men Showing Emotion After President Biden's White House Address - Yahoo Entertainment

The House of Representatives select committee is moving forward to seek answers in the Jan. 6 insurrection on Capitol Hill. They have already made their list of people from the Trump administration whom they would like to speak to and theres only one adult child from the Trump family who didnt make the list: Tiffany Trump.

That means that all documents and communications within the White House involving Donald Trump Jr. (and his girlfriend Kimberly Guilfoyle), Eric Trump and Ivanka Trump will be a part of the investigation, per Politico. For Tiffany, being an outsider in her family suddenly has its benefits. Its well-documented that the now 27-year-old was raised on the opposite coast of her half-siblings by her mother (and Donald Trumps second wife), Marla Maples.

Maples has always said she raised her daughter as a single mother and that Donald had very little involvement with his youngest daughter. Her daddy is a good provider with education and such, but as far as time, it was just me, she explained to People. Her father wasnt able to be there with day-to-day skills as a parent. He loves his kids. Theres no doubt. But everything was a bit of a negotiation.

Even though Tiffany moved back East to attend college and law school, her involvement with Donalds administration was limited to a few public appearances and some help on the campaign trail. In the end, this distance might save her from any possible legal trouble involving not only the insurrection, but the ongoing investigation into the Trump Organization. Tiffany has always downplayed any rumored tense relationship with her father. We see each other as much as possible and of course we speak on the phone, she shared with the media outlet. I think regardless of distance, I dont think that dictates any relationship strains.

But with the ongoing look into what happened on Jan. 6, Tiffany might be thanking her lucky stars that she stayed away from the family business. Because Ivanka, Donald Jr. and Eric will likely feel some heat regarding what they knew about the mental stability of Donald Trump or his fitness for office on that fateful day.

Tiffany Trump Is the Only Adult Child of Donald Trump Not Being Investigated About January 6 - Yahoo Entertainment

In his letter of displeasure with Joe Biden's presidency, Robert Hebert, economist, demonstrates that he remains true to his profession. Like most economists, he begins by making an assumption. In his case, he has assumed former President Donald Trump could do no wrong and President Joe Biden can do no right.

Maybe we would all be better served if the world wasn't viewed through Hebert's lens of absolutism or its antithesis that Trump could do no good and Biden can do no wrong. I can say this because I do not belong to either tribe.

I must confess I do not miss the Trump presidency. A president is elected to serve his country. By his pandemic performances on TV and his erratic tweets, Trump left me with the feeling he was less concerned about serving his country and more concerned with serving himself. I will decide in the 2024 election how I feel about the Biden presidency.
