The son of Republican presidential nominee took to Twitter Monday night to comment on the complex Syrian refugee crisis and it caused a social media storm. In his tweet, Donald Trump Jr. compared Syrian refugees to a bowl of skittles, using a photo that reads “If I had a bowl of skittles and I told you just three would kill you. Would you take a handful? That’s our Syrian refugee problem.” This image says it all. Let's end the politically correct agenda that doesn't put America first. #trump2016 http://pic.twitter.com/9fHwog7ssN — Donald Trump Jr. (@DonaldJTrumpJr) September 19, 2016 The controversial comment comes at a time when Americans are on heightened alert due to attacks in both New York and New Jersey.
