Raffle prize offers killing animals with Donald Trump Jr.

A hunting advocacy group is offering what it has called a “once-in-a-lifetime” raffle prize of killing elk with Donald Trump Jr., but it has faced some criticism online.

Hunter Nation promoted the chance to win a five-day guided fall hunt in Utah with President Donald Trump’s son ― who it dubbed “the modern-day Teddy Roosevelt” — on Instagram Monday. Tickets cost $10 each.

Organizers say the chance to share a hunting camp with Donald Trump’s son is “truly priceless.” Twitter users disagree.

Cheeto jr. and "prize": Most of the world's ugliness, rolled up in one person. Like his father.

behind bars? Looks like he’s having too much fun roaming the forests and blasting away innocent animals. Lock him up!

If this had been Malia Obama, Chelsea Clinton, or Amy Carter, the Rethugs would be charging their homes with pitchforks.

But Mueller's a real pro; he never rushes into anything. Ivanka and the Cheeto boys will see Ft. Leavenworth yet.

Where does he get this from? tRump senior is certainly not a hunter (can't do it from a golf cart). Or, did he just inherit the genes for trying to dominate everthing?

The measure of success hinges 100% around the taking of trophy-sized game by any means necessary.

The use of game farms; small aircraft; all terrain vehicles and staged happenstance are all deployed to guarantee the client is sufficiently satisfied.

Simply being outdoors with thousands of dollars in designer gear does not constitute being a sportsman/woman nor a conservationist...

Be it elk, elephant tails, elections, women, or money, if the Trumps didn't obtain it by cheating, it just doesn't feel right to them.
