ERIK TRUMP on CBS this morning....

[SticksnStones]

So he's there to clean up his father's misstatements on The Khan family, on sexual harassment in the office...so, yeah Erik, spin away.

But notice his slip in the conversation that's starts around 4:30 in the clip.

"The ultimate sacrifice is dying for this nation and dying to protect the three of us..."

Hey Erik, there are four people at that table. You, and Charlie and Norah and look to your right Erik (oh, you did), there's Gale.

Four people. Who you leaving out Erik? Was that a little bit of a slip there? What's with that Erik? I mean counting to four is not that hard to do on the fly...

1. Aww you're being hard on him. He wasn't talking about the people at the table!

He's talking about him and his 2 siblings.

Oh wait. He has 4 siblings.

Let's see, him, Don Jr., ivanka. There's those three. Oh yeah, and Tiffany and Barron. The ones that don't count.

3. Lol!

Exactly!

He just can't help himself the poor sop!

2. I saw him on TV but the sounds was turned down!

What a weasel like his father!

4. Best way to listen to a Trump

Sound turned down....and ideally the set turned off...yep, sound down,set off: best way to experience a Trump, IMO

5. I was eating breakfast at a truck stop & was hearing from....

all those so-called experts!all the drivers who think they know everything!

6. I find it best to stay out of those conversations

When you spend hours in a truck listening to Rush and Hannity and Savage et al, of course you're going to emerge as an angry ill informed republican.

7. Thanks! I needed that!

I tend to tune them out after about 10 seconds!

8. Yes, very slippery. He repeatedly avoided the "apology to the Khans" question.

9. I had assumed he was talking about his brother Donald, Jr., and Ivanka.

I also wondered why Tiffany was excluded, though I remember Trump thanking his kids by name for being onstage with him at one event and didn't mention Tiffany. After that, he belatedly tweeted that he'd wished Tiffany had been able to attend also. Body language among his kids leads me to believe that they don't think much of Tiffany. After all, she rarely saw Daddy when she was growing up. According to Tony Schwartz, the ghostwriter, in all the time he spent with Trump on the book, he never once saw Ivanka, and Trump never once mentioned her name. The kids had earlier said that they rarely saw their dad, that he worked 24 hours a day. Barron is apparently an afterthought.

10. I could see that if one views the video again

He could be referring to two other people and him.

But yeah, Tiffany? Baron?

This family, the more you peel back the layers the odder the affects.

(I'm going to miss the wholey normal, completely inspiring Obama Family. I'm not ready for them to go....at all ~ )
