...Afghan immigrant Ahmad Khan Rahami is wanted by authorities in connection to bomb attack in Chelsea. Dahir Adan from Somalia went on a stabbing rampage on Saturday at a St. Cloud mall.

On Monday Donald Trump Jr. tweeted out an informative graphic comparing Muslim refugees to Skittles. The liberal media is outraged. (Tweet) "If I had a bowl of Skittles and I told you just three would kill you. Would you take a handful?"

Just who is supposed to be offended here? The skittles? If so, I think wheat and fish and bread should be really ticked off at Jesus.

As the song goes “When you have nothing you have nothing to lose.” They are desperate and clutching at straws.

I would protest if Obama were compared to Big Hunk. I’m ok with him being compared to Abba Zaba though.

It is so apparent the Democrats haven’t anything to fight the Donald with. They have taken this country, and the people of this country for a ride down Horror Lane, and are ending the ride in a ditch.

All the Democrats can do is throw mud, and feces at Trump, and his surrogates. The people that really want to fix a very serious problem, and “Make America Great Again”.

Except there will be no lawsuit. has ANYONE ever used the term “Skittles” in any kind of public discourse? Did the Mars co sue? If not then no suit and besides they have to prove harm was done. It’s all silly and I wonder where your head is for even indulging in conspiracy stuff such as this

A Skittles spokesman called the comparison "deplorable".

Ben Shapiro, a #NeverTrumper but a brilliant intellect postulated we give the left far too much credit intelligence wise. Case in point Steven Hawking, high IQ, great mind for astrophysics but you ever hear him comment on social\philisophical things..a blithering idiot. Like one level above imbecilie. We have to taunt and think away past them like they are the emotional level of a 14-year-old girl...which they are. What Eric Trump did here, and their predictable and infantile reaction. We have to debate and treat them like children.

I think Trump Jr. got it wrong. Shlould be:

"If I had a bowl of Skittles and I told you just three would not kill you. Would you take a handful?"

The elitist news desk dwellers really do believe that the American people are so deplorably and irredeemably stupid that they don’t understand analogies.

Not sure why they are upset with Trump. Its an old analogy used many times before and basically is a good anaolgy to the situation.

Touchy, touchy, touchy. The allusion to Sir Skittles was in terrible taste. How about M&Ms!

I read that analogy a long long time ago- he was just passing along some internet lore

We can’t be mean to the other Skittles.

Well, if the other Skittles would throw the poisonous ones out of the bowl, we wouldn’t have this issue.

I like Trump but his son is even better. What a future he has in politics.
