Donald Trump Jr. whined on Twitter about “tyranny” in the United States, and many folks thought it was somewhat of a self-own.
President Donald Trump’s eldest son continued to cheerlead his father’s failing efforts to deny President-elect Joe Biden’s 2020 election victory with this post on Monday:
Freedom is losing ground to tyranny very quickly... what’s truly scary though is how many are willing to allow it to happen. https://t.co/FaFap7vK4v
— Donald Trump Jr. (@DonaldJTrumpJr) December 7, 2020
Twitter users hit back to point out that the president, who falsely claims to have won the election, is the tyrant.
“Oh pot meet kettle,” one person responded to Trump Jr.
Added another: “I know right? So glad to see you are finally coming to that realization. Welcome to the resistance.”
Attempting to overthrow a free and fair election is tyranny! I know I’m going to incite the crazy cult but I said what I said!

Tyranny 101: Profit from emoluments; Exploit nepotism; Scapegoat ethnic groups; Attack press; Deport aliens
Tyranny 102: Fire prosecutors; Stack courts w/loyalists; Stifle protests; Ignore courts
Tyranny 110: Bypass Congress; Rig elections; Pardon criminals
Oh pot meet kettle. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 pic.twitter.com/fv5Bo1yz13

Are you f****** serious with this right now?

I can’t remember - what’s the definition of “projection” again?
Tyranny is not accepting the results of a free and fair election. Tyranny is destroying peoples faith in the election process and demeaning the hard work done by the government workers who ran the election.

given your father's loss, I think I can understand why you're finally concerned about freedom

I know right? So glad to see you are finally coming to that realization. Welcome to the resistance.

Freedom to vote = Tyranny
— Resister Leslie -- President Elect Joe 🌊 Biden (@LeslieAMaddox) December 7, 2020
Ok now I know.
Let's make this simple: Trump had every right to file lawsuits to allege voter fraud. Now that he's lost ALL of them, Trump's claims of voter fraud are a cover story for a coup. Every GOP official supporting Trump's coup is a co-conspirator. This is what FASCISM looks like.

Your father failed in every regard. He failed with Covid-19. He failed with having integrity. He failed with uniting us as a people. He failed with the economy. He failed with representing us in a way that would instill pride. Consequently, he was rejected by the electorate. Bye.

The tyranny will end when tyrant is evicted on January 20.

Tyranny is not accepting the will of the people. Biden won.
— Sydney Mc (@Sydney_Mc) December 7, 2020
I agree. Looking forward to @JoeBiden getting us back on track.

“Tyranny”, just projecting again.

Your dad has followed Putin’s playbook to a tee. He has attacked our constitution daily, can you even count how many Court cases he’s lost in the last 4 years. It’s sour grapes, I truly believe you thought your family would tyrannize for years. pic.twitter.com/yQtBbe8tZT
