Eric Trump Tried to Mock the Democratic Debate on Twitter But Ended Up Getting Mocked by the Internet Instead
Smooth move, Eric.
Not having learned his lesson after weighing in on one of the Democrats' June presidential debates, President Donald Trump's third child with ex-wife Ivana—Eric Trump—decided to make another insightful Twitter post assessing the merits and deficiencies of the 2020 Democratic presidential field.
You may remember this piece of eloquence from June:
I’m already bored— Eric Trump (@Eric Trump) 1561597311.0
Regarding Thursday's Democratic debate, Eric was similarly articulate:
These people are so uninspiring... #yawn— Eric Trump (@Eric Trump) 1568334723.0
And the Internet wasted no time in pouncing.
While his elder brother's recent social media post selling Trump camo merchandise including a stained t-shirt earned Don Jr. the designation of king of the self-own, Jr. may need to pass over the crown to his younger bro.

Maybe it would be best for Eric to leave the debate commentary to others from now on.
