Jim Bob Duggar slammed for saying he’s ‘pro-family’ in Senate race after defending son Josh in child pornography trial

A CAMPAIGN flyer for Jim Bob Duggar is being ridiculed online for claims that the Counting On star is "pro-family" - just as his son's child pornography trial gets underway.

Jury selection for Josh Duggar's trial began on Tuesday, while his father is in the middle of a heated contest for an Arkansas Senate seat.

users are finding those claims hard to swallow, especially in light of his family's well-documented current struggles.

While sharing a picture of the campaign note, the original poster wrote: I don’t know whether to throw up or not.

In the comments section, others backed him up, with arguments like: "Pro-family as long as you're not his daughter!" and "Pro-freedom as long as you’re not a woman."

One commenter lashed out at Jim-Bob: "The pig is not pro-family. He is pro-let your son molest your daughters and do nothing about it. He needs to spend some time behind bars."

Another recommended returning the flyer to its sender: "Mail it back to the TTH or his campaign headquarters with a note stating you are pro-prosecuting pedophiles and anti-protecting child molesters."

And one person just wanted it all over: "This clown had better lose!"
