Donald Trump Jr. had a few choice words for Alyssa Milano after she blamed “Russian meddling” for the Democrats loss in the Ohio special congressional election.
“So you’re saying you’re for Voter ID so we can make sure to protect our elections??? That’s good to know. Welcome aboard,” Trump Jr. tweeted Wednesday, along with the retweet from the 45-year-old actress. (RELATED: Donald Trump Jr. Calls Out Twitter CEO Over ‘Flagrant Attack’ Of Conservatives)

The comments came in response to Milano’s blaming Russians for the backing of the Green Party candidate.
“You know what sucks? Because of our unwillingness to pass policy that protects our election integrity, I immediately think the Green Party votes tonight are Russian meddling,” the “Charmed” star tweeted. “Why else would anyone cast a protest vote in Ohio when there’s so much at stake?”
