As a wise person once said, “Money can’t buy you class”: Peter Brant Jr, the openly gay son of supermodel Stephanie Seymour and publishing billionaire Peter Brant thought it’d be a riot to tweet about killing President Obama on Election Day.
After getting a whiny election-related text from pal Andrew Warren that said, “Guess were [sic] poor now,” Brant replied, “I have a contingency plan. Kill Obama hahaha.”
“HAHA well Atleast [sic] women have rights. Oh wait I don’t care,” Warren replied, with Brandt, 18, chiming in. “Hahahaahaha exactly.”
“People seriously need to take a joke, the instagram obviously wasn’t serious,” Andrew tweeted on Wednesday. “Everyone can move on now I obviously believe in women’s rights.”
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
Below, Brant and Calvin Klein boytoy Nick Gruber kill it at karaoke.

Isn’t it officially a crime to threaten the sitting president? The FBI are very unlikely to see the “funny” side of such a comment.
I used to work at an airport and we had the same policy about people who made “jokes” about bombs – we do NOT have a sense of humour on that subject, and you WILL be spoken to by police about it, whether it was “obviously” a joke or not.

Stupid? Rude? Juvenile? Yes. But let’s not forget that he’s a kid and kids say stupid things all the time. If the terrible things that every other 18 year-old boy said on facebook and twitter made it into the news we’d be inundated with reports like this. Let’s not attack this kid just because his mom is a celebrity.

A perfect representation of a rich spoiled disaffected asshole. Please no more stories about this douche.

Wouldn’t it be great if he crashed his overpriced car into a tree, thus shattering his skull and his socialite friends will have too watch him slowly haemorrhage and eventually die.

SPOILED BITCH…
Send him to prison…let him have some fun
Gigi Gee
Ew. Why did I click onto that video? I only watched about 3 seconds of it but…blech!
@2eo – How is your comment any less appalling than his? Answer: It’s not. It’s far worse.

When the Revolution comes, we will remember these idle chatterings of the aristocracy, as they are led to the gallows.

In the immortal words of Lewis Carroll’s Red Queen. OFF WITH HIS HEAD! It’s not like he is using it anyway.

Money can’t buy you a decent education, either.

@EdWoody: here is you answer:

@mlbumiller: sorry it has not been passed yet

He belongs with his peers,fellow nonentities Paris Hilton and the Kardashians.
Ogre Magi
He needs a long hard bare bottomed spanking
Bascha
I mean, on a list of the most terrible kinds of people, privileged, jackass socialites are up there right after all the serious stuff like murderers, rapists, etc. That being said, he’s just a stupid kid and there are plenty of kids who say stuff like that about whomever or whatever. Does this really need to be a reported story?
Eric Auerbach
The New York Times did a profile on this douchebag and his brother a few months ago. If the piece was at all accurate, these kids are unbearably pretentious.

There may or may not be a law against threats on the President, I don’t know. But i do know that the FBI doesn’t wait to investigate such things. It’s a guarantee that, if he didn’t already have one, he now has an FBI file and they’ve looked at all his social media accounts, credit card statements, etc.

The vapid musings of some silver-spoon debutante-wannabe…. uggh.

@Ejzuber: This “kid” is 18 years old and legally an adult. It was a 19 year who fired the shot that killed the Austrian Archduke and started WW I.
The sister of a friend of mine made a similiar remark on Facebook and was visited by the Secret Service. This self absorbed little shit needs a visit too.
Guillermo3
@Aidan8: Yes,Aidan8,old buddy! Vapid and
DOUBLE “uggh”!Creeps like Brant,in a time when so many people are
struggling,unemployed,many homeless,many desperate make revolution sound like
a reasonable alternative.

If his opinion meant anything, this would be a worthwhile article. It’s not.

Who?

Hopefully the FBI will talk to him…or will his daddy’s money but him out of it like always?
Robby
Oh great, a gay Paris Hilton wannabe.
TrekBear
Drop him off for a week in a poor Caribbean country (far from tourists or resorts) and let’s see how he feels about gay rights in America!

@Little-Kiwi: You’re bad,Little Kiwi!_
Love it!!!!
silveroracle
I would be surprised if the FBI don’t end up getting in touch with him.
As for the karaoke, I listened to 3 seconds of it. It’s sucked.
