Donald Trump Jr Makes Bizarre Holocaust Joke

http://www.dailykos.com/stories/2016/9/15/1570451/-Trump-Jr-makes-a-holocaust-joke

“The media has been her number one surrogate in this. Without the media, this wouldn’t even be a contest, but the media has built her up. They’ve let he slide on every indiscrepancy, on every lie, on every DNC game trying to get Bernie Sanders out of this thing. If Republicans were doing that, they’d be warming up the gas chamber right now.” – Donald Trump Jr.

As much as it is in poor taste, how does this even make sense? Like the media goes around killing people? And to mention it in the context of Bernie Sanders is horrible.

Wonder who he talked to and what deals were made in selecting Pence and pushing him on his dad for VP? Supposedly the Kochs are only working to save Congress and at the state and local levels, but with the younger Trumps such dealers and with Pence's perfect fusion of religious fervor with business-is-morality so close to the White House, I can't believe the Kochs are really completely out of this. Trump would practically dispose of himself and clear the way if necessary.

Hillary gets skewered for facts and figures and Trump gets free media time with Dr. Oz.

And Trumpie, Jr. still bitches about the unfairness of it all. Good grief!!

"They’ve [the media] let he [sic] slide on every indiscrepancy...." Not only is this backwards, what's and "indiscrepancy"? I'm beginning to look forward to T-rump's defeat for a brand new reason. All his little spawn will crawl back into the walls.

Deflection: Pointing at someone else and accusing them of being exactly like you are.
The trump campaign has been doing this regularly.
Mix in a little of the good ol fascism that the trump offspring seem to revere and presto, another deplorable comment.

He makes inappropriate comments and retweets from white supremacists and neo-nazis. There is something wrong with him.

Also, he is not very bright; just yesterday he told everyone the truth about his father's tax returns... They would be a distraction from the message. Yeah damn right, a distraction because of all the dirt in them.

We're fools and we're getting suckered and, unfortunately, only Hillary can fix this mess by leading. I never thought I'd make such an assholish comment, but we're at the mercy of the media and a parrot and we can't do much more on this little island here.

If Repgs were dong that they'd be warming up the gas chamber right now....

Who is warming up the gas chamber?

Is he saying that the Repugs would be warming up the gas chamber? Is he saying that Hillary would be warming up the gas chamber?

I just don't get what he is saying here. Can somebody help in this statements translation?

California had a gas chamber for executions up until the 90s. He could see he was referring to that though I doubt this is the case.

comments provide additional evidence of just what an arrogant, ridiculous ass Trump Jr. is -- not that this surprises anyone. Seriously, whose mind even goes to such a weird place when discussing the suppose difficult treatment his father receives from the media?! GAS CHAMBERS?!

When Trump posted the picture of Hillary Clinton w/the star of david and a bunch of
money I went to one of its internet sources and it was filled w/jews being shot or
gassed in WW II, cartoons of hooked nosed jews, and rasict cartoons of African Americans
so Trump and his family's talk about gas chambers comes from where their minda are at.
