Don Jr. spars with Jon Hamm over who’s alpha

Donald Trump Jr. hit actor Jon Hamm on Friday over his recent interview with The New York Times, in which Hamm said President Trump tried to act like an “alpha male” during a “Saturday Night Live” after-party. 

“Pro tip: If you have to tell others you’re an alpha… you’re not,” the president’s eldest son tweeted in response to the article.

Hamm recounted to the Times his experience meeting Trump and former Fox News host Bill O’Reilly at an “SNL” afterparty last fall.

“[Trump] was with Bill O’Reilly,” Hamm told the Times. “They’re both tall dudes and I’m a tall dude. And they both do that tall-dude thing, which is try to intimidate you. And it doesn’t work on me. I’m like, ‘I’m as alpha as you. Let’s go. You’re not going to chest-bump me.'”

“It was the shortest I’ve ever stayed at an ‘SNL’ after-party,” Hamm said. The event was held after an episode of the show hosted by Trump during his campaign for president. {mosads}

Eric Trump, the president’s second-oldest son, previously described his father as an “alpha” in his explanation of Trump’s controversial comments from the now-infamous “Access Hollywood” tape in which he is caught on a hot mic bragging about groping women without consent.
