Donald Trump Jr talked about fleeing the US if Donald Trump lost 2024 election

Donald Trump Jr previously said that he would "fly to a non-extradition country" if his father lost the presidential election. The 46-year-old is eligible for Czech citizenship through his late mother, Ivana Trump, who was born in Gottwaldov, Czechoslovakia (now Zlin, Czech Republic), reported the Daily Beast



 

In a TikTok live on Tuesday, November 5, Don Jr stated, "If we don’t win, then I’ll probably, you know, the way the Democrats function, I’m going to have to fly to a non-extradition country and just, you know, take up shop there so I don’t end up in the gulags with Elon and everyone else."

He then claimed that he was "only partially kidding."

His father also made a similar claim in August, when he told Elon Musk, "If something happens with this election, which would be a horror show, we’ll meet the next time in Venezuela because it’ll be a far safer place to meet than our country."

Internet slams Donald Trump Jr over domestic violence joke

While Donald Trump Jr probably thought he was sharing a witty meme, the post wasn't well received as evidenced by several comments left under it. 

One wrote, "Yeah this is not ok to post," and another said, "This is a sad commentary of the nation at this time that you think this is funny and should be given any action. You are a grown man that has no time for good, just divisive rhetoric."

A person stated, "That’s inappropriate. You won … move on to action not comedy," whereas someone else mentioned, "Don’t even give them something to think about !!! Stupid post !!!!"

"Maybe Trump will get indicted again before he takes office. Wouldn't be too surprised," remarked an individual. One more fumed, "These guys love to beat women, it’s their mission. It’s in their heritage ask from within." 

"Glad all you vile Trump Cult members think domestic violence is funny. I thought ya’ll were Christians. SICK LOSERS," read another comment.
