Donald Trump Jr. posts fake image of father throwing sex toy, and gets mocked: ‘Zero respect’

Donald Trump Jr. just shared his thoughts on a string of disturbances plaguing the Women’s National Basketball Association.

Trump on Thursday posted an image of his father, President Donald Trump, throwing a green sex toy off of the roof of the White House.

His target? WNBA players.

“Posted without further comment,” Trump said in the caption, adding three laughing face emojis.

The meme, which was taken from an account on X called “Grand Old Memes,” also appeared to comment on the president’s recent wandering on the White House’s roof.

Since late July, sex toy have been thrown onto WNBA courts across the country: in Atlanta, Georgia, on July 29; in Chicago, Illinois, on Aug. 1 and Aug. 7; and in Los Angeles, California, on Aug. 5.

On Tuesday, as the Los Angeles Sparks took on the Indiana Fever, a sex toy was thrown onto the court, appearing to hit star guard Sophie Cunningham. Days prior, she pleaded with her social media following to “stop throwing dildos on the court… you’re going to hurt one of us" — and then added “this did NOT age well” following the incident.

ESPN also reported that video footage showed a separate attempt of a green sex toy being tossed from the stands during New York Liberty’s game against the Dallas Wings, but it did not make it to the court.

And on Thursday, in Chicago, two objects were flung during the third and fourth quarters of the city’s Sky game against the Atlanta Dream. In one instance, what appeared to be a dildo had landed near the Dream bench, and another, donning a purple color, was launched at the center of the court in the final seconds of the game.

While it is unclear if the instances are connected, a neon green color has become associated with the unfortunate trend. A second person was arrested on Thursday following an alleged attempt.

Trump appeared to comment on the WNBA’s escalating problem — and social media users did not take it lightly.

“I thought these guys cared about the integrity of women’s sports?” one user wrote on X late Thursday.

Liberal media host Mehdi Hasan posted a similar point: “Remember these are the same people who bash trans people because they care about ‘women’s sports’. Er, ok.”

Another user said: “A high school student government has more maturity than the clowns currently in the White House.”

“Zero respect for women,” a different user added.

Others users found enjoyment in the meme.

“Hilarious!” someone wrote, and another said, “I love having a funny President again.”
