A spokesman has responded on behalf of Donald Trump, Jr. after State Rep. John Rogers (D-Birmingham) said that the president’s son is “evidently retarded or crazy” and that “[h]is mother should have aborted him.”

In a statement, Trump, Jr. spokesman Andy Surabian told Yellowhammer News, “Sadly, vile comments like this have become par for the course for the Democrat Party. They’ve become so deranged by President Trump’s victory that celebrating late-term abortion, support for eugenics and even calling for the death of political opponents is becoming their standard operating procedure.”

“I hope every elected Democrat in the country has the common decency and moral courage to disavow these types of grotesque statements from members of their party,” he concluded.
