Donald Trump Jr. is not happy with the Wall Street Journal after its editorial board published an urgent plea for Americans not to resort to “collective punishment” against Afghan immigrants.
“The fate of Afghans, men and women, who worked with the U.S. has often been brutal,” wrote the board in the article, first published on Thursday in response to an Afghan national on a special immigrant visa being arrested in connection with a shooting of National Guard troops. “You can be sure Americans will fight overseas again, and our troops will need allies on the ground to succeed. How many will assist us if they believe there will be no exit for them if the U.S. leaves with the enemy triumphant?”
All those Afghans who helped U.S. soldiers, the board concluded, “shouldn’t be blamed for the violent act of one man. Collective punishment of all Afghans in the U.S. won’t make America safer and it might embitter more against the United States.”
But this plea for levelheadedness enraged the president’s eldest son.
“Give me a f—— break,” Trump Jr. wrote on X. “The RINOs [Republicans In Name Only] at the Wall Street Journal Editorial Board want us to be flooded with millions of America hating migrants who don’t share our values. This is a good reminder that it’s not just Democrats responsible for this – It’s the globalist RINOs too.”
This comes at a moment when the Trump administration is vowing not just to subject all Afghan nationals on special immigrant visas to a review, but to try to force a mass “denaturalization” of U.S. citizens who emigrated from elsewhere, which could lay the ground work for mass deportations on a scale not yet seen.
