Skittles responds to Donald Trump Jr.’s refugee analogy

Willie Wonka doesn’t play around. Skittles responded swiftly to Donald Trump Jr.’s controversial comment last night, in which he tweeted: “If I had a bowl of Skittles and I told you just three would kill you. Would you take a handful?”

In a statement, Skittles vice president of corporate affairs responded: “Skittles are candy. Refugees are people. We don’t feel it’s an appropriate analogy.”

Here is Trump Jr.’s tweet:
