Trump Jr. joked about Aurora shooting the day it happened

Trump Jr. has not acknowledged the CNN report as of this writing.

In the interview on the Opie and Anthony show - first published by BuzzFeed - Trump Junior then talks about sexual harassment in the workforce.

Donald Trump Jr.'s comments on a radio show about the Aurora theater shooting are sparking outrage and becoming political fodder in Colorado.

A Trump campaign worker from Oklahoma-who wished to remain anonymous-said her favorite points made by Trump Jr. included that his father was running for president "for the right reasons" and that the "Trump family loves America". Donald Trump Jr. should apologize immediately to the families and victims affected by this bad tragedy.

After the hosts listened to a soundbite of a witness describing the shooting, Trump Jr. exclaimed, "Overall, I give the movie two thumbs up!"

As CNN's KFile discovered, Trump has a long history of pushing the envelope during appearances on shows like "Opie and Anthony", "Opie with Jim Norton", and "The Six Pack" (which is no longer on the air).

Acceptance of bad behavior amongst men were echoed just last week by Trump's other son, Eric Trump.

"By the way you can't, you can't even make fat jokes now without, like, there's a whole segment of people that like, that's nearly the worst one like, it's easier to, like, do a racial thing, than it is a fat one because everyone knows they're fat and they get really offended that-", he said. He wasn't nice to his wife,"one of the hosts said".

But Laura Thoman, a manager at The Sink, said Sunday afternoon that no one from the Trump campaign had contacted the restaurant. Like, that in itself is racism.

In an early January 2012 appearance on "Opie and Anthony", Trump Jr. discussed the assassination of Mahmoud Al-Mabhouh, who was a founding member of Hamas' military wing, assuming all Arab people were named "Mohammed" or "Ali".

Trump Jr. said it wasn't possible to say anything as a politician without being criticized. "And by the way, if I was in his shoes I'd be playing that card too because you can get away with it in this country and we allow it". "That's, that's nice. I'm just kidding, I'm just kidding". And Trump Jr. said the mothers at those pageants are "all fat".
