Don't Get Fooled By This Donald Trump, Jr. Parody Account
The REAL Donald Trump, Jr.

A parody account for Donald Trump, Jr. has been fooling people on Twitter, even those who usually know better. Don't be a sucker!
Real Donald Trump, Jr. even chastised Raw Story for running with that fake tweet (Raw Story has since corrected its article).
Senator Mike Lee and Ken Cuccinelli were two delegates involved in an attempt to hold a roll call vote that would change the convention rules to allow to delegates to try and nominate someone other than Trump. It was a kind of a big chaotic mess. You can read all about it here.
So the idea that Trump, Jr. would be calling those delegates out with a threatening phrase like "your careers are finished" seemed like a deliciously inappropriate tweet. Not SO insane that it would clearly be from a parody account, but just a LITTLE over the line – enough to think Trump, Jr. was using poor judgement on Twitter at a glance.
Sometimes, a bad tweet is too good to be true, and so a lot of people fell for it.
