Eric Trump Threatens To Sue Rachel Maddow For Exposing His Disgusting Connections

Eric Trump is not happy that MSNBC host Rachel Maddow talked about the fact that he's going to be speaking this weekend at an event where noted Hitler-praising, far right characters will also be speaking. Eric went as far as to threaten to sue Maddow if she is implying that he is somehow racist, which isn't something that even happened - she just pointed out who he'll be sharing a stage with. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains what's happening and why Eric is so angry.

Eric Trump, the fail son of Donald Trump, is now threatening to possibly sue M S N B C host Rachel Maddow, for having the sheer audacity to point out that he is going to be sharing a stage this coming weekend with several individuals that are on the record praising Hitler. Basically, Eric Trump is going to be giving a speech in the same venue at the same event that people who are clearly anti-Semitic will also be speaking. That is what Rachel Maddow pointed out. In no way, shape or form did Rachel Maddow accuse Eric Trump of being an anti-Semite. What she did was she pointed out that right wing influencers, Scott McKay and Charlie Ward Ward, who have both spread anti-Semitic conspiracy theories and praised Adolf Hitler would be speaking at the same event. Like she didn't even say they were gonna be on the stage together. She didn't say that they have to hang out and be best friends.

She just said, Eric Trump is going to be at an event where known anti-Semites are also going to be. So here is how Eric Trump responded to Rachel Maddow pointing out a fact. He said that she is walking a fine line and then he added that his, uh, family is the most pro-Israel family in American political history. If Maddow or anyone else even remotely suggests I am anti-Semitic, I will not hesitate to take legal action against them personally. Nobody accused you of that, bud. Why are you freaking out? You got a guilty conscience. I mean, that's honestly the first gut reaction that I have. You know how bad this looks? You are still continuing to do it. So rather than being mad at the event planners for having these, you know, Hitler loving individuals also on stage, you are mad at Rachel Maddow for only pointing it out like she did not accuse you of anti-Semitism.

I mean, it almost kind of seems like your post on Twitter seems like you're saying she accused you of anti-Semitism even though she didn't, which would mean that you are actually the one making stuff up about her. Yikes. Right? Funny how that works in the opposite direction as well. If you're accusing somebody of saying something, they didn't say, oh gosh, I'd, I'd hate to think about the legal action that she could take against you there, bud. Nobody's calling you an anti-Semite, Eric. What we are pointing out is why are you gonna be on the same stage that these individuals are gonna be on? Why are you attending this event that they are going to be at? Why would you want to speak at an event that is going to have these

Two individuals also on stage? Like what purpose does that serve? What benefit is that to you, and what does it say about you that you are more angry about the people pointing it out than you are about the fact that these folks were invited to speak at the same podium that you're gonna be standing at? Kind of sounds like your anger is a little bit misdirected and just for reference in the future, if you don't want to be accused of being an anti-Semite, step number one is don't go to the same events as anti-Semites, just so you know.
