Donald Trump Jr. made an unfortunate mixup on his online show, Triggered With Don Jr., on Thursday, accidentally swapping his father’s name with that of his 2024 opponent, Ron DeSantis. The gaffe came during a rant about the Florida governor’s “DeSaster” Twitter Spaces campaign launch. Don Jr. took aim at DeSantis for “basically reading, like, an op-ed what he was going to do.” But just minutes into his speech declaring DeSantis’ “failure to launch,” Trump Jr. appeared to mix up his own words: “Once you actually put out the facts I think a different image is going to emerge... Trump has the charisma of a mortician, and the energy that makes Jeb Bush look an Olympian.” Trump Jr. paused for a moment after the mixup but continued on, later claiming DeSantis is a flip-flopper who continues to dodge questions about his stance on Ukraine. Don Jr. also ripped DeSantis for his “nasal and effeminate voice,” claiming “it was that bad.”
Junior goes on a rant that is supposed to be about Desantis, but he misreads his script:
