...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.

I don’t think this will help him.
Anyone killing such animals is kind of creepy to me.
It’s a shame because I was liking the noise Trump was making
Yes, dammit! Yes!!!
Hunting in Africa..... hunting in Wisconsin.... so what?
Again, I don’t understand why this should hurt him, he didn’t do it?
—
I said it won’t help him. You think it will?
Did I say I wouldn’t support him?
And, personally, I am sort of creeped out by people that hurt cheetahs and game like that. But that’s just me.
Looks like he is going to get another shot at the Marxist Media pinata.

So what? Everything eats something else. Tell that Impala the leopards don’t have it coming!
...meanwhile Hillary is still not in jail for REAL crimes.
I don’t like Trump and will never vote for him, but this is just ridiculous.
Well, I have no problem shooting buffaloes, I wouldn’t shoot a Cheetah though. They’re beautiful!”
The photo was of a leopard, not a cheetah.
Leopards are not close to being endangered but the cheetahs definitely are. But if you go on an African safari you will not likely a leopard as they are nocturnal hunters.
