Eric Trump Freaks Out Over Dad’s Trial But Gets 1 Very Awkward Thing Wrong

Eric Trump’s latest defence of his dad Donald Trump — who is currently on trial in his hush money case — went awry as he made one major mistake.

The Trump scion on Monday told Fox News’ Sean Hannity that, “Every time I watch my father walk into that courtroom it breaks my heart because they [the Democrats] will stop at nothing […] to take the man down and no one believes this nonsense, right?”

Eric Trump complained about his four-times-indicted dad being brought to trial so close to the 2024 election and suggested, without evidence, that it was only because he was “winning in the polls” as presumptive Republican nominee.

Then he claimed, “My father was focused on running the United States of America, not bookkeeping, not there was anything done wrong in the bookkeeping.”

But Trump is charged with 34 felony counts over the alleged falsification of business records to cover up $130,000 (£105,000) paid to porn actor Stormy Daniels — before the 2016 election – so that she wouldn’t reveal an alleged affair.

In other words, the allegations stem from when Trump was not, as his son put it, yet “running the United States of America.”

Critics on X (formerly Twitter) highlighted that:

Donald Trump’s Adult Children Are Still Costing Taxpayers Thousands Of Dollars A Day

Ivanka Trump, Donald Trump Jr and Eric Trump – three of ex-US president Donald Trump’s adult children – continue to land taxpayers with the cost of their Secret Service protection.

They racked up more than $140,000 in charges in the first month following new president Joe Biden’s inauguration on January 20, according to watchdog group Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, which analysed Secret Service spending records obtained under the Freedom of Information Act.

Agents protecting Trump’s progeny spent $52,296.75 on travel and $88,678.39 on hotel costs during the 30-day period, including on trips to Salt Lake City, Miami and New York, the group said Wednesday.

It works out to around $4,699 per day.

And the total costs to taxpayers could be even higher, because the Secret Service “did not provide records of spending at Trump businesses, which is the most controversial aspect of the extended protection”, CREW added.

That the Trump offspring can benefit from publicly-funded security details at all is down to their father’s six-month extension of their protection following his departure from the White House.

Only the ex-president, former first lady Melania Trump and their son Barron, 15, are entitled to automatic protection.

Trump, however, extended the perk to his aforementioned kids (plus youngest daughter Tiffany Trump) and their partners in the final days of his administration.

“While it may be tempting to put the story of the Trump family’s profiteering in the past, we cannot until they have actually stopped directing taxpayer money into their own bank accounts,” said the group, which has long exposed instances of taxpayer money being funneled to Trump properties. “Thanks to Trump’s unusual extension of their protection, they’ve got a few more months to continue the grift.”
