On Monday evening, Donald Trump Jr. sent forth unto the internet a meme that was both moronic and incorrect.
"If I had a bowl of skittles and I told you just three would kill you. Would you take handful?" the son of Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump asked his Twitter followers, despite his wobbly grasp of punctuation. "That's our Syrian refugee problem."

Many shared photos of Omran Daqneesh, whose image became symbolic of Syria's turmoil in August after it was shared by rescuers.
Not a Skittle, but a 5-year-old boy, dazed and bloodied after an airstrike in Aleppo. Not a red or green Skittle, but someone who would soon lose a brother, Ali Daqneesh, only 10, to injuries from the airstrike.

Trump Jr.'s tweet may find an audience, thanks to its easily digestible take on a complex situation. But one thing seems for certain: the prospect of his father becoming president in November is leaving many people in America with a nasty sugar headache.
