In a desperate attempt to try and own Democrats, Donald Trump Jr. and his brother, Eric, thought it’d be hilarious to dress as “garbage” for Halloween, a jab at President Joe Biden, who slammed comedian Tony Hinchcliffe for calling Puerto Rico a “floating island of garbage” during a rally held at Madison Square Garden last Sunday by their father, failed former president Donald Trump.
Instead, the two Trump sons only wound up humiliating themselves and getting endlessly mocked on social media.
Here’s Don Jr’s pathetic costume:
And here’s Eric:
Let the humiliation begin.
Personally, I’d prefer to see all of the Trumps in prison garb.
According to Eric Trump, the son of convicted felon and 2024 GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump, the fact that his daddy was found guilty of 34 felonies by a Manhattan jury is only helping with voters in key demographic groups.
Speaking with Fox host Maria Bartiromo, Eric, proudly declared, “For the first time, they realize that the system’s coming down, that he’s the victim, he’s the victim that oftentimes some of their communities were. You see them swinging. Look at the African American vote, right? That’s swinging over to Donald Trump in spades.”
Of course, Eric offered absolutely no polling evidence that would prove his absurd hypothesis regarding black voters, and his choice of words — “in spades” — also drew the attention of many on social media, where the failed former president’s son was thoroughly dragged.
Even though neither he nor anyone in his immediate family has ever served a single day in the U.S. military, Eric Trump wants us to believe that the entire Trump clan “gave up everything to Save America.”
That’s the message Eric conveyed on Twitter over the Memorial Day weekend when he shared a post from another social media user.
That didn’t sit well with many, and it prompted a fierce backlash against Eric and the Trumps.
According to Eric Trump, his family has never done anything the least bit wrong, illegal, or immoral, and is the very definition of a “good family.”
During an appearance on Fox News over the weekend, Eric was asked about the ongoing hush money trial against his disgraced father.
“Well, Mark. A hundred and ten subpoenas in the last seven years. Those are ones that I’ve received personally. … I’ve never gotten so much as a traffic ticket,” Eric whined. “We’re a good family. Never have done anything wrong.”
“The way that they’ve come after my father since he’s gone down that escalator is unthinkable,” he added.
Never done anything wrong? As HuffPost notes, that claim doesn’t comport with the recent string of legal judgments against former president Donald Trump and the Trump Organization.
“In the last year or so alone, Donald Trump has been found liable in separate civil cases for fraud, defamation and sexual abuse, racking up hundreds of millions of dollars in penalties.”
“He has been criminally indicted four times. He faces federal charges related to his handling of classified documents and his attempt to overturn the 2020 election. He is also battling state-level charges in Georgia over election subversion, and is currently on trial in New York for allegedly falsifying business records to cover up a $130,000 hush money payment to a porn star who says she had sex with him the year after he married his current wife.”
Twitter users were only too happy to slap Eric down with an online fact check.
According to Eric Trump, it’s almost impossible to buy “skin lotion” and other toiletries in New York due to crime, and it’s all the fault of President Joe Biden.
Eric made his patently absurd remarks during an appearance on “Sunday Morning Futures,” telling host Maria Bartiromo that his old man, disgraced ex-president Donald Trump, is “feeling great” despite being on trial in Manhattan for allegedly paying hush money and interfering with the 2016 election, which he won.
That’s when the former president’s son began attacking New York, which he said was “failing.”
The entire matter, he asserted, can be laid at Biden’s feet.
“The country does not believe it. But this guy’s not going to make it. He can’t.”
“He can’t get down a pair of stairs,” he said. “He can’t finish a sentence. He can’t read off a teleprompter without some kind of gaffe.”
Biden’s not going to make it? What about Eric’s pathetic father, who is falling asleep in court every five minutes and makes claims so wild that some have suggested he’s suffering from Alzheimer’s?
Nice projection, Eric, but no one believes anything your daddy or his spawn have to say. You’ve lied too damn much and the American people are sick of your bullshit.
