Eric Trump: Obama has a 'personal problem' with my dad

Eric Trump said Tuesday that President Obama has a “personal problem” with his father, President Trump, and is trying to take credit for his father’s accomplishments.

Trump, the president’s second eldest son and an executive vice president of the family’s eponymous business empire, spoke with Fox & Friends for Fox News’ all-day Election Day coverage and was asked by co-host Brian Kilmeade whether he thought Obama’s decision to stump for Democratic candidates nationwide ahead of the midterms was unusual.

“Something already unprecedented took place. And that thing that took place was a former president that is–cannot run again, went out acted like he was on the ballot. It’s Barack Obama,” Kilmeade said. “Number one, did he catch…your dad by surprise, that he would do this? And did you find it strange that it seems to be personal with him? He seems to have a personal problem with your father.”

“He does have a personal problem,” Trump responded. “He is taking credit for a lot of my father’s accomplishments. You see the passion. You don’t see the passion at [Obama’s] rallies. You see the passion at my father’s rallies.”

Guess Eric really lives up to his reputation of being the stupidest Trump.

As usual for a Trump, Eric has it completely reversed.

His father is obsessed with Obama.

Trump feels inferior to Mr Obama. It shows every time he's out there.

The whole family is a bunch of wimps.

As for "a personal problem". Yeah, most of the world has a personal problem with Trump. He is the worst person in the USA who is not currently in prison.

I've long felt that having a single up/down vote for a topic is deficient.

I'd love to see DU implement something that marked the whole thread as worthy of comment (the current DURec) and a way to say whether or not we agree with each individual posting within the thread.

This particular thread is interesting and I agree with the OP but I want to register a negative to the subject matters content (dumpJr).

Trump has been obsessed with Obama to the point of being pathologically opposed to anything Obama said or did.

If Obama came out and said "Water is wet." Trump would say it was dry.
