Donald Trump Jr. managed to humiliate himself and his father Thursday during an interview in which he accidentally suggested had inflated the value of properties owned by the Trump Organization.
During an interview with Eric Bolling of Newsmax, HuffPost notes, Don Jr. whined that people often base their valuations on his daddy’s real estate holdings depending upon their motives.
So how much are Trump Tower and Mar-a-Lago worth?
“If it’s worth 18 million and that’s good for the soundbite at the time, it’s worth 18 million. If it’s worth hundreds of millions the next day for a different purpose, it’s worth hundreds of millions. And that’s what’s going on.”
Of course, Junior failed to mention that his dad does the same damn thing! He was even found liable in New York for inflating the value of his properties when he needed loans and then reducing them at tax time. How’s that for irony? As a result, the failed ex-president now owes the Empire State some $464 million in penalties.
Twitter users were only too happy to remind Don Jr. of the facts.
