The president’s son did not appreciate the treatment he got from People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals and said the animal-rights group was the bloodstained party.
On Thursday, PETA released a Halloween costume, mocking Donald Trump Jr. and his love for big-game hunting.
The $169 costume “Donald Trump Jr. Hunting Halloween” costume features a blood-stained camouflage jacket, a “Half-Cocked” name tag, and a stuffed “leopard” to drape over the shoulder.
“There’s nothing more frightful than an entitled ghoul who gets his kicks from gunning down wild animals,” PETA President Ingrid Newkirk said of the renowned hunter and presidential son.
Tu quoque, replied Mr. Trump.
“Ironically, there are few orgs in world history that have as much animal blood on their hands as PETA. You hypocrites are literally an animal slaughter factory,” Mr. Trump wrote.
