For Some Reason, People Aren't Buying Trump's Excuse For Missing Jr.'s Wedding

"Imagine hearing your dad tell the entire country he's not sure your wedding fits into his schedule," one social media user said.

Although President Donald Trump gave what he probably thought was a good excuse for ditching the upcoming wedding of his oldest son, Donald Trump Jr., his answer inspired a lot of internet scepticism.

Trump Jr. is set to marry model-socialite Bettina Anderson this weekend in the Bahamas, but it doesn’t look like his dad will be in attendance based on what he told reporters on Thursday.

Spoiler alert: If you’re looking for enthusiasm, you’ve come to the wrong place.

“He’d like me to go, but it’s gonna be just a small, little, private affair, and I’m gonna try and make it,” Trump said. “I said, you know, this is not good timing for me. I have a thing called Iran and other things.”

He added that if he does attend, “I get killed. If I don’t attend, I get killed. By the fake news, of course.”
