1/ THREAD: Donald Trump, Jr.'s open display of firearms on his Instagram account - particularly an assault weapon - is but one dramatic Body Language example of male overcompensatory behavior.
2/ A profound affectation, it screams:

• "I am not comfortable in my masculinity"
• "I am a beta male who desperately wants to be an alpha"
• "I am over-compensating for my inadequacies"
3/ The image of Secretary Clinton, while on its surface is designed to provoke Clinton supporters and unify his father's base, is to a larger degree a sign that Trump Jr. is projecting.
4/ Trump Jr. is telling us that he fears being imprisoned and spends time thinking about this possibility.
5/ Moreover, the image of Hillary Clinton on a firearm is bizarre for another reason. In Trump Jr.'s mind, a gun is a symbol of virility. Thus, Secretary Clinton's image on his firearm strongly suggests sexual motives.
6/ An analogy would be a person voicing strong anti-gay opinions, only to be later outed as gay. Why have an image of your claimed enemy on your virility stick?
7/ In addition, the presence of a Jerusalem Cross and a replica of a helmet from a medieval suit of armor on his firearm, tells us that Donald Trump Jr. perceives himself to be a version of a knight on a religious crusade. This is ominous.

END
Addendum: More specifically, these religious crusade symbols are also blatant anti-Islamic statements.
