Donald Trump Jr.’s joke about Aurora theater shooting sparks anger in Colorado
Donald Trump Jr.’s comments on a radio show about the Aurora theater shooting are sparking outrage and becoming political fodder in Colorado.
The son of Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump appeared on the shock-jock show “Opie and Anthony” on July 20, 2012 — the same day convicted gunman James Holmes murdered 12 people at the Century Aurora 16 theater during the midnight premiere of the Batman movie, “The Dark Knight Rises.”
The radio hosts played interviews with people inside the theater when the attack took place.
“Everything was going good until, we saw gas and sparks, and sounded like really strong fireworks,” a witness says. “And then you just hear people yelling — and actually just a few rows away from me a girl gets up holding her jaw. I guess she had got shot.”
Trump Jr. immediately interjected: “Overall, I give the movie two thumbs up.”
