Donald Trump Jr. criticized former Missouri Sen. Claire McCaskill after she mocked Secretary of Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson for kneeling in the aisle during a photo opportunity.
“Hi Claire, Two problems with your tweet: 1. Dr. Ben Carson did not have a seat in this pic because he was sitting in First Class with my family 2. Dr. Carson is not a ‘thing,’ he is a world renowned, life-saving neurosurgeon,” the president’s son tweeted on Tuesday. “Anyway, how’s unemployment?”
McCaskill, 66, tweeted earlier on Tuesday, “One of these things is not like the others. Hint: they made him squat in the aisle so he was visible.” She attached a picture of prominent Republicans wearing MAGA hats, which included Carson.
Hi Claire,
Two problems with your tweet:
1. Dr. Ben Carson did not have a seat in this pic because he was sitting in First Class with my family
2. Dr. Carson is not a “thing,” he is a world renowned, life-saving neurosurgeon
Anyway, how’s unemployment? https://t.co/icZKsu9YFn

McCaskill is a vocal critic of the president and a contributor to MSNBC. She criticized Trump as a “stone cold idiot” on Sunday after he tweeted out congratulations to the state of Kansas instead of Missouri for winning the Super Bowl.
