'Moron': Donald Trump Jr taunted for praising dad after anthem mishap saying that's 'how it's done'
Twitter users were not appreciative of Trump Jr's "condescending" tweet and responded with a barrage of fiery comments.
Donald Trump Jr has once again triggered massive outrage and biting remarks after "ridiculously" praising his father for standing and singing the national anthem. After being greeted with a mix of cheers and boos at the at the College Football Playoff National Championship game on Monday (8 January), President Donald Trump took to the field and stood with his hand over his heart for the national anthem.
However, footage of Trump singing the anthem has gone viral after the president appeared to mumble parts of it prompting many social media users to question whether he knew the words to The Star-Spangled Banner.
Many critics blasted Trump over the gaffe after the president spent months criticising NFL players who kneel at games in protest of inequality and police brutality in the country.
Still, amid the flurry of snarky comments and furious criticism, Trump's eldest son took to Twitter to post a photo of his dad and rave about his anthem etiquette at the game.
"And that folks is how it's done. It's not that hard. Just show some respect for your country," Trump Jr tweeted along with a screengrab of a Fox News broadcast that shows Trump with his hand on his heart during the anthem.
Twitter users were not appreciative of Trump Jr's "condescending" tweet and responded with a barrage of fiery comments.
"How what is done? Butchering the words to the National Anthem?" one person tweeted.
Another user shot back: "This is NOT how it's done. A POTUS (cough) should know the words to our National Anthem. He looked ridiculous!!!"
"Since when did it become a news alert when a president stands for the anthem?" one user tweeted.
"It would be great, if the President of the United States know the words of the national anthem. Not more, not less," someone wrote.
And that folks is how it’s done. It’s not that hard. Just show some respect for your country. #nodrama #maga #america #potus #georgia #alabama #football pic.twitter.com/x3I9AvZNXk

Easy to put your hand over your heart. Might be nice if he knew the words to the National Anthem. That’s what Americans do that are proud & respect our country. #SelfAwarenessIsNotYourThing

He kept lifting his hand away, like it was hard to concentrate on keeping it there. Also, I'm Canadian and I know all the words to The Star Spangled Banner. I can even translate it to French. Your father can't even sing along in English.

Clueless as his dad

That's how it's done? How what is done - to humiliate oneself on national TV while thumping your heart & desperately attempting to lip sync a song that even 6 year old know the words too? Apparently for some it IS that hard #NationalAnthem #StableGenius

Super awesome he recovered from those heel spurs that got him out of service. And, by the way Slick Donny Jr., what have you ever done?

Amazing. Your dad is a genius. You too. 🖕ðŸ½

Perhaps you should write down the words to the National Anthem down for him and tuck it in his pocket.

Now try teaching daddy how to be a president. Doesn't even know the words to the Athem. National embarrassment. That's how it's done. 😂😂😂

He doesn't know the constitution either... go figure.

You better hope he remembers you in the will better than he remembers the words to the anthem, junior.
