The apple drops right under the tree

Here’s son Eric sounding like a recording of his father Donald:
Eric Trump in an interview Sunday attacked a Washington Post article that found his father, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, donated only $10,000 to charities over seven years, millions less than he has publicly claimed.
Eric Trump dismissed the article as a “hack job” while calling the media the “worst part of society.”
“It was such a disgusting article, and that’s The Washington Post, and that’s their M.O., unfortunately. Every article is just a pure kill job,” Trump said in an interview with John Catsimatidis on “The Cats Roundtable” on AM 970 in New York.
The Post reported that Donald Trump hasn’t personally given to his own foundation since 2008. And of the 188 charities the Post contacted that had some connection to the billionaire, 11 received a personal donation, while 44 declined to comment. Another 48 didn’t respond to the Post’s inquiries. An additional 85 had no record of receiving a personal donation from Trump.
But Eric Trump claimed the opposite.
“Charity is such a big part of our company and of our lives. My father has contributed so much to what I’ve done. He contributes so much to every charity,” he said.
“The worst part of society is that you can’t have an objective and unbiased media. … You know, it’s a hack job, and it’s done for various reasons. It’s very, very sad.”
Unfortunately, even if it’s true although I’m quite sure it isn’t, nobody will ever believe that Donald Trump anonymously gives massive amounts to charity without taking public credit for it. He doesn’t eat breakfast without taking public credit for it.
I don’t blame Eric Trump for defending his father. That’s just family loyalty. But adopting his tiresome whining isn’t necessary.
And he is an exotic animal killer which makes him irredeemable in my eyes:
