...spark comparisons with Walter Palmer, killer of Cecil the lion
Their dad likes shooting from the lip, but the Trump kids prefer shooting wild animals with guns.
Pictures of Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump, the two adult sons of bombastic 2016 candidate Donald Trump, shooting wild animals in Africa have resurfaced, sparking unflattering comparisons of the mogul’s heirs to lion-killer Walter Palmer.
The Trump brothers went on a 2011 hunting trip in Zimbabwe, where they snapped photos of themselves with enormous dead animals they took down.
In one photo, Donald Trump Jr., known to many as “Donnie,” is seen toting a rifle and flashing a huge grin while seated next to a dead buffalo he had just killed. In another picture, Eric Trump is seen sitting atop his fresh kill, another buffalo, smiling as the dead animal lies still on the ground.
In yet another grisly snap, the brothers are seen smiling while holding a dead cheetah. And in another pic, Donald Jr. is seen holding a knife in one hand and the bloody, detached tail of an elephant in the other.

Were the game animals named Cecil too?
Let’s see.. Today his kids went after Cecil the Lion’s friends. Yesterday it was marital rape with Ivana. The day before it was that he exaggerated his wealth—it’s only 2.9 Billion instead of 10 — so you shouldn’t trust him.
Maybe he’s the new Teflon Don. This approach eventually worked with Sarah Palin, but doesn’t seem to be working with the Donald.
AMERICAN SPORTSMAN on ABC TV back in the late 1960s and early '70s was one of my favorite shows and featured Hollywood stars hunting big game in both America and Africa.
As long if it was a RINO elephant.
I prefer the father tormenting RINO’s :-)
So what.
Even Liberals enjoyed hunting especially their favorite son Ernest Hemingway.
There are pics of Hemingway with his wins. I don’t hear any outcry from the libs here.

So that’s what this is about, this whole Cecil thing.
I wonder how much money they dropped in Zimbabwe while there. Some of us might find this appalling but hunting brings a lot of money to their economy. I guess it would be better to let them starve.
Buffalo are bovines, but I bet these creeps probably ate burgers in the last week.
Sooner or later the press is going to find out going to twelve year old third graders for scandal on Trump is a losing proposition.
Until then, no need for other comic relief.
“Is this the smoking gun the anti-Trumpers are looking for?”
Doubt that. If they want a real smoking gun, they’re going to have to come up with something better than pics of his sons legally hunting in Africa.
Notice how the Daily News states that they’re posing with “dead animals”? Inflammatory writing. Hey, DN, you know your local supermarket has a “dead animal” department, right? Uggh! I hate the DN.
Never try to placate people who are never going to vote for you anyway.
They're desperately looking for something to use against Trump.
They don't know what they're up against.
I agree. Beautiful coat. Better to trap, or snare them.
If he operated an abortion mill and murdered human children, would that give him more traction with you?
As beautiful as they are, they are still wild animals and quite capable of killing humans.
