Since Donald Trump’s Twitter ban, the former US president has been without a major platform to go after the famous people who criticise him – but that’s where his son comes in

Don Jr.’s Instagram and Twitter feeds are chock full of memes attempting to provoke everyone from The Rock to Greta Thunberg and singer Demi Lovato

Ivanka Trump and her younger brother Eric Trump have defended their father in public on many occasions, but Donald Trump’s firstborn child Don Jr. has a unique way of hitting back at big names who share criticism of the former US president.

Between loved-up posts about his fiancé Kimberly Guilfoyle and sweet tributes to his children, the father-of-five’s Instagram page is filled with memes trolling the likes of Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Demi Lovato.

Of course, it’s no coincidence that all of them have criticised his dad Donald at some point …

Johnson blasted then-President Trump for his lack of “compassionate leadership” amid protests in response to the killing of George Floyd.

Two years later, after The Rock walked back his support of comedian Joe Rogan when a Twitter user alerted him to Rogan’s past racially insensitive comments, Don Jr. saw his chance to lash out at the wrestler-turned-actor.

He shared an image that hinted at Johnson’s prior labelling of John Cena as a “bloated transvestite” and posted the caption: “With friends like the Rock who needs enemies. Imagine someone who would throw a good friend under the bus to appease some woke d-bag lunatic on Twitter?”
