SHAME: Donald Trump Jr. Just Made A Gross Holocaust Joke, Twitter Erupts In Fury (TWEETS)
Somehow, in the year 2016, we must bring you word that the son of an American presidential candidate has made a Holocaust joke.
Donald Trump Jr. has a history of retweeting neo-Nazis and white supremacists, which makes it very odd that the wee Trump would choose those particular words.
“The media has been her No. 1 surrogate in this. Without the media, this wouldn’t even be a contest, but the media has built her up. They’ve let her slide on every discrepancy, on every lie, on every DNC game trying to get Sen. Bernie Sanders. If Republicans were doing that, they’d be warming up the gas chamber right now.”

There is no way that Trump Jr. could have been referring to anything other than the poison gas chambers that the Nazi regime used to murder millions of Jews, Communist, Roma, and other “undesirables” in the mass genocide known as the Holocaust.
The most horrific, unspeakable crimes ever committed by one group of humans against another is nothing but a joke to the son of a man who’s campaign is actively championed by white supremacists and neo-Nazis, has endorsed policies compared to those instituted by Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party, such as forcing Muslims to wear special identifying IDs. The Trump camp later tried to claim that he was referring to “capital punishment” in the United States, but please. Who do they think they’re kidding?
Trump Jr. follows some of the alt-right’s most putrid instigators. The alt-right sends all of us gas chamber memes. Draw your own conclusion

Trump Jr defense of his “gas chamber” remark: he was making a joke about capital punishment, not the Holocaust.
This is not a good defense.
