Eric Trump has been getting dragged since he mounted a Twitter attack on Monday against George Conway, an attorney and presidential critic married to White House advisor Kellyanne Conway.
Conway tweeted out criminal statutes relating to obstruction of justice Monday morning after President Donald Trump tried to use social media to intimidate witnesses cooperating with Special Counsel Robert Mueller.

"Of all the ugliness in politics," tweeted Eric, "the utter disrespect George Conway shows toward his wife, her career, place of work, and everything she has fought SO hard to achieve, might top them all. @KellyannePolls is great [sic] person and frankly his actions are horrible."

The president's middle son did not get the reaction he anticipated.
Some family self-reflection might be in order.

Conway was not disrespecting his wife by shining light on the president's perpetual criminal behavior.
Conway did not reply directly to E.T., but he did retweet some amazing reactions.
