Donald Trump Jr decided to make Halloween political this year by teaching his daughter about socialism by stealing her hard-earned candy.

Ignoring the fact that trick or treating is all about giving away free things, the Presidentā€™s eldest son said on Twitter that itā€™s ā€œnever too earlyā€ to learn about the pitfalls of... sharing.

Iā€™m going to take half of Chloeā€™s candy tonight & give it to some kid who sat at home. Itā€™s never to early to teach her about socialism. pic.twitter.com/3ie9C0jv2G

The tweet got quite the response - nearly 65,000 of them and counting.

Hereā€™s a flavour...

Fill her bucket with old candy left by her great-grandfather, then explain that she has more because she's smarter than all the other kids. https://t.co/0lbhHYyFe4

She was given candy for free.
You inherited all your money.
You met with Russian spies.
Itā€™s ā€œtooā€. https://t.co/Bsf5wkQxST

My man, "socialism" was her getting that free candy in the first place. You taking half for reasons she can't understand is capitalism https://t.co/w9x9zB0xLA

Imagine seeing your beautiful girl on Halloween & thinking: 'Ooh, I can use this to tweet about why sharing is bad' https://t.co/A9jDu9IVLC

Take 80% of her candy and give it to the top 1% of trick or treaters. You know like your dads' tax plan.

Cool cool cool. Way to bring your daughter into the Trump way of dividing America.

We had candy left over. My daughter asked to take it to school to share w/kids whose families don't have $ for luxuries. I'm a socialist. pic.twitter.com/P0uAZTVYMz

Meanwhile, back at the White House Halloween was a no less awkward affair as evidenced by the Presidentā€™s encounter with a T-Rex.

Yes, the President totally blanked a child dressed as a dinosaur.

Dinosaurs are terrible animals, I like animals that donā€™t go extinct, their numbers are way down, all bad, I know I went to good schools https://t.co/2ZDyxjqAqO

He's had trouble with guys named Rex.

To be fair though, he does have reason to fear them.

Dinosaur suit-wearing protesters march on Washington to protest Pres. Trumpā€™s plan to slash the budget for national service programs. pic.twitter.com/Diy9AJkrd8
