Donald Trump’s son, Donald Trump Jr., has sparked outrage after he tweeted a graphic, reading: “If I had a bowl of Skittles and I told you just three would kill you. Would you take a handful? That’s our Syrian refugee problem.” Along with the graphic, he tweeted the words: “This image says it all.” In response, Skittles’s parent company Wrigley Americas said in a statement: “Skittles are candy. Refugees are people. We don’t feel it’s an appropriate analogy. … We will respectfully refrain from further commentary as anything we say could be misinterpreted as marketing.”
