"My father started with almost nothing"!

According to Eric Trump!

He made this statement on Friday. He was defending his father's way of becoming rich! Eric Trump was on Fox News when he made this statement and had the panel laughing at his stupid remarks. I guess the rock doesn't fall off the ledge after all!

If someone could post a link, we all can see the fool in action. I am having trouble posting a link myself, thank you.

2. And today he probably doesn't have anything, I would have thought the big bully would brag

about his earnings in a year, release his taxes to prove how much money he makes in a year, it is not happening. If elected he should receive the salary in the amount of his taxes he has paid yearly, NOTHING.

4. ...

 

Thirty-two-year-old Eric Trump, a millennial himself, didn’t go unchecked for his statements about his father’s success.

“Well, I think he’s a guy who has been an entrepreneurial guy. He’s built an amazing company. He’s become the epitome of the American dream. He’s gone from just about nothing into, you know, a man who –” the Trump tycoon heir said, before he was cut off.

Julie Roginsky, the show’s co-host, didn’t miss a beat and fact checked Eric Trump immediately, before he could even finish his statement.

“Nothing? He got a million bucks,” Roginsky quipped, addressing Donald Trump’s loan from his father.

“Listen, he’s built an unbelievable empire,” Trump said, defensively answering the co-host. Trump then tried to bring it back around to the millennial generation’s respect for self-starters, such as Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg.

“He’s epitomized what America is all about: opportunity and working hard and being able to achieve your dreams and what you want to succeed, right? It’s no different from a Zuckerberg, right, who went out with a great idea like Facebook and developed this idea and built it and grew it and grew it and grew it. That’s achieving something, right? And I think it is very different than a person who has been career politician.”

The fact that Donald Trump probably wouldn’t have succeeded in business without his father’s $1 million loan seems lost on Eric Trump. In fact, the youngest Trump has an odd slant on politics and issues in general, especially when it comes to understanding the political inclinations of millennial voters.

5. I just started reading David Cay Johnson's book. He says when Trump was a baby he was getting

$12,000 a year in a trust fund which was more than the average income for a non-scamster family at the time. I suppose $12,000 is nothing to Thurston Von Douchebag.
