Peta takes aim at Donald Trump Jr. with parody Halloween costume
Peta has mocked Donald Trump Jr. by introducing a limited-edition Donald Trump Jr. Halloween costume which shows a trophy-hunting photo that featured the Trump brothers grinning while clutching the body of a dead leopard.
Peta’s Halloween costume includes a “bloody” camouflage jacket (with a name tag reading, “half-cocked”) and a red cap bearing Don Jr.’s name, and it comes with a huge, plush leopard in a pouncing position.
Through the sale, Peta aims to condemn trophy hunters and urges them to stop slaughtering animals.
The organization has previously targeted Trump Jr. in a border billboard which offered $100,000 to the struggling National Rifle Association if it agreed to stop promoting assault weapons and to ban Trump Jr. and other trophy hunters. It has also sent Huntsman Condoms to hunters around the world—including Trump Jr. and his brother, Eric—to encourage them to stop reproducing.
Peta president Ingrid Newkirk said: “There’s nothing more frightful than an entitled ghoul who gets his kicks from gunning down wild animals. This Halloween, Peta will help people poke fun at someone who believes that the world and its wildlife are here for him to take.”
