Eric Trump Claims People Tried To Buy Him Dinner ‘To Apologize’ For FBI Search Of Mar-a-Lago

Eric Trump was a guest on Sean Hannity’s Fox News show Monday evening, and he claimed that two random people offered to buy dinner for him and his wife, Lara, “to apologize” for the FBI search of his father’s Mar-a-Lago golf club last week.

The ex-president’s son began by suggesting that the search had caused his dad’s popularity to skyrocket, according to Newsweek:

“It has caused the greatest fundraising, my father’s poll numbers have absolutely gone through the roof.

“They are not even talking about any other Republican candidates because they have all kind of disappeared, they are not even in the equation.”

Then came Eric’s claim about people wanting to pay for his meal:

“Last night I had an argument between two people who were trying to buy Lara [Trump, his wife] and I dinner to apologize for what the United States Government has done to our family.

“You wouldn’t believe the energy out there, I have been through all of these firestorms over the years, I have never seen America more mad than it is right now.

“There is only so many times you can cry wolf, people are not buying this sham in the country, they see the weaponization of the FBI.”

The rant continued:

“They are calling it the police state in this country, people get this for what it is. They have removed the wool from people’s eyes and people know exactly what is going on.

“They are targeting Donald Trump, they are targeting his family, everyone around him, his lawyers, anybody who is close to Donald Trump. Anybody who is effective, they are targeting right now and people understand this for exactly what it is worth.”

Polling data shows that Eric’s claims aren’t supported by facts:

Just about half of registered voters approve of the FBI search of Trump’s Florida compound. Predictably, those numbers diverge a bit when broken down by party affiliation — with an overwhelming majority of Democrats approving, and a strong contingent of Republicans disapproving.

Twitter users also had doubts that anyone offered to buy dinner for Eric and his wife.

WATCH: Eric Trump Appears On The Verge Of Tears As He Tells Hannity About The FBI Raid On Mar-a-Lago

Just hours after the FBI served a search warrant on former president Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago golf club and residence in Palm Beach, Florida, Eric Trump showed up on Sean Hannity’s show to whine, appearing on the verge of tears as he spoke to the Fox News host.

The Daily Beast notes that Hannity let Eric go uninterrupted as he bemoaned the fact that justice had finally caught up with his daddy:

“Sean, this didn’t come from the little local FBI field office in Palm Beach, Florida. You know who this came from. This came from one place and one building, and that is the White House in Washington, D.C.”

Actually, it came from a federal judge and the Justice Department as part of an ongoing investigation of top secret documents the ex-president removed from the White House and took with him to Florida in direct violation of federal law.

Eric continued:

“To have 30 FBI agents—actually more than that—descend on Mar-a-Lago, give absolutely no notice, go through the gates, start ransacking an office, ransacking a closet… they broke into a safe. He didn’t even have anything in the safe. I mean, give me a break. And this is coming from, what, the National Archives?”

If Donald didn’t have anything in the safe, then he has nothing to worry about. But as we’ve learned when it comes to the Trump family, what they say is almost always the opposite of what actually happened.

As you’d expect, Eric also tried to deflect by using the name of Hunter Biden, President Joe Biden’s son:

“And yet Hunter Biden, he did firearms crimes, prostitution, illegal drugs, you know, shady deals with everybody around the world. And by the way, it’s all in his laptop for the whole world to see. Where are these FBI agents? Where is everybody? Why is it that the arrows only fly at Donald Trump and his family? Why is it that the political persecution only goes one way in this country?

“When do you give up? When do you say enough is enough? When do you give a human being who fought so hard for this country—when do you give them the benefit of the doubt?”

Fought so hard for this country? Donald Trump claimed to have “bone spurs” when he was called to serve in Vietnam. He has never done anything for anyone other than himself because he’s a grifter, a liar, a traitor, and a coward.

Cry some more, Eric. Your tears are delicious.

Don Jr. And Ivanka’s Eulogies At Their Mom’s Funeral Show The Trump Family Is More Dysfunctional Than We Thought

The funeral for Ivana Trump — failed, one-term former president Donald Trump’s first wife — was held last week, and while such occasions are naturally bittersweet, people generally use the occasion to say kind and tender things about the deceased.

Unless, of course, you happen to be a member of the Trump family, and then the entire affair turns into a surreal sendoff that must have felt more like a celebrity roast than a fond adieu.

According to Arwa Mahdawi of The Guardian, the so-called eulogies given by Ivana’s two oldest children, Don Jr. and Ivanka, suggest that the level of dysfunction in the family is even more pronounced than any of us ever imagined.

Let’s start with the eldest: Donald Jr. The warm memory of his mother that he chose to recount at her funeral? The time she disciplined him so hard she had to stop from exhaustion. Once, when they were kids, said Donald Jr, his sister Ivanka accidentally destroyed an expensive chandelier. Ivanka – it will shock you to hear – lied and said it was her brother’s fault; Ivana then pulled out a wooden spoon to teach Donald Jr a lesson. He kept insisting that Ivanka was the responsible party, but, by the time he had finally convinced his mother of his innocence, she was “too tired to deal with Ivanka.”

Even stranger was what Ivanka chose to reveal about her late mother:

Ivanka’s eulogy, meanwhile? She talked about her mother telling her to wear shorter skirts. A bit odd, but not nearly as weird as the contribution from Dorothy Curry, a former nanny to Ivanka, Donald Jr and Eric. In a very dark speech, Curry talked about Ivana’s life becoming a “sinking swamp [of] parasites.”

Parasites? When you think about it, that’s the perfect description of what has been taking place inside the Trump family ever since Donald was born back in June of 1946, which suggests that when it comes time to eulogize him, the kids may just skip the event and go home to count what’s left of the Trump “empire” after daddy nearly flushed the entire thing down his gold-plated toilet.

Eric Trump Says A Planeload Of Passengers Applauded When He Boarded: ‘The American People Get It!’

Supposedly, Eric Trump is Executive Vice President of the Trump Organization, his daddy’s company which is currently under multiple investigations for fraud and other felonies.

Even though his father is no longer president and has about as much relevance as a moldy grilled cheese sandwich, Eric is suddenly showing up on right-wing media to claim that his old man is more popular than ever with the American people.

Eric showed up on Newsmax this week and immediately began spewing all sorts of questionable nonsense about how the country needs his daddy back in the White House ASAP, telling host Greg Kelly:

“I was on a plane last week… and I walked on and the plane literally started chanting ‘USA! USA! USA!’ Greg, the American people get it. I think there’s more love out there than ever right now. I’m hugged by people every single day saying, you know, ‘Thank God we had your father in the White House.’”

Sure they did, Eric. Based on the evidence presented Tuesday by the House Select Committee investigating the January 6 attack on the Capitol and the latest polls, the vast majority of American voters aren’t about to applaud anyone with the last name Trump.

Eric and others on the Trump are desperately trying to keep Donnie relevant and pretend he isn’t on the verge of being indicted, but all the fake stories and bullshit in the world can’t save the failed, one-term former president now.

New January 6 Video Footage Provides Damaging Evidence Against The Trump Family

Footage found in a trailer for the documentary “Unprecedented” was acquired by Politico and contains new and damaging evidence that will likely be used against failed former president Donald Trump and members of his family.

The documentary was made by British director Alex Holder and will be seen on Discovery+ as a series.

Politico notes that the new footage shows just how much access Holder was given by the ex-president and also provides insight into how the Trump family dealt with the horror of the January 6, 2021 Capitol insurrection:

Ivanka frets about a line on her dress, and jokes about covering it with a pet roaming about. “Can I borrow your dog?” she asks her makeup artist. Kushner nervously repositions his tie and asks “Is that OK?” Don Jr., seen at a rally, screams, “We will make liberals cry again!” Eric is caught on a phone call, mysteriously saying, “For the sake of this country, we’re going to get these guys.”

When the film turns to the day of the Capitol riots, we see Trump instructing his supporters to march on the seat of government, along with footage of his acolytes doing as he instructed:

It all builds to Jan. 6, when the Vivaldi suddenly stops and a wide shot of Trump at the “Stop the Steal” rally in Washington appears. “Let’s all walk down Pennsylvania Avenue,” he tells the crowd.

Then Holder’s cameraperson joined the crowd as it marched on the Capitol. “We’ve got to get the roaches out, all of them,” a protester yells straight to camera as he appears to motion toward Congress. Next up is a montage of scenes from the frontlines as the rioters breach the Capitol and police in riot gear are attacked.

As the Vivaldi fades and the movie’s title appears, Trump’s faint voice can be heard from the distance: “Do you miss me yet?”

Holder has turned over hours of footage he shot for “Unprecedented” to the House Select Committee investigating the Jan. 6 insurrection.
