Don Jr delivers EPIC response to Comey’s threatening ’86 47′ post

May 17, 2025 | | Print Article

On Thursday, former FBI Director James Comey posted an ill-advised photo of a “cool shell formation” that earned him some well-deserved backlash.

Among that backlash was a reported visit from the U.S. Secret Service, with the New York Post claiming that Comey was seen leaving the Secret Service’s Washington, D.C., field office on Friday. While the “86 47” photo has since been deleted, that isn’t stopping people from posting “cool shell formations” of their own.

Including President Donald Trump’s son, Don Jr.:

“I was walking along the beach and these rocks and shells suddenly appeared. I assumed it was a political message,” Jr. posted mockingly alongside an AI-generated photo of rocks reading “Trump won, b**ch.”

As BizPac Review previously reported, the term “86” is generally used to mean  “get rid of” or “throw out.” The reaction to his post was so great that Comey not only deleted the offending photo but issued a statement about it afterward.

“I posted earlier a picture of some shells I saw today on a beach walk, which I assumed were a political message. I didn’t realize some folks associate those numbers with violence of any kind so I took the post down,” he said.
