Like father, like sons: Eric and Don Jr. reportedly skipped out on Irish pub bill

During their recent trip overseas, Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr. actually managed to find a small patch of land where they were welcome.

According to The Irish Post, the two drew praise from at least one Irish pub owner, Caroline Kennedy (no, not that one), who described American Psycho and his sidekick, Beavis, as “lovely and down to earth.”

And then this happened:

”They thanked everyone for their support and for coming out to meet them and said there was a drink for everyone in the house and it was their small gesture."

Unfortunately, when it came time to footing the bill, things hit a slight snag with neither of the brothers carrying any cash.

Kennedy isn’t worried though, having been assured the hefty bar bill would be paid for.

"I don’t think we’ve to worry about getting paid for that," she said.

"I don’t think they carry cash. We were told it’d be all sorted later so there’s no problem.”

Uh huh.

Oh, Ms. Kennedy, that’s adorable. Sorry, you’ve been Trump’d.

left a hefty tab of purchases for all pub patrons for the owners. Shame and no class.

an expensive restaurant. When the bill came, it turned out that they didn't take credit cards, and he said he didn't carry cash, so she ended up paying for it. He promised to reimburse her, but she never heard from him again.

He was nice looking, not handsome, but nice. Preppy. Normal. Not a conversationalist, but neither was I. I didn’t think he was very bright.

The check came but the restaurant didn’t take credit cards. My date couldn’t pay for the dinner. This was the first thing I could relate to all evening. Me, Jewish girl, independent but not too, always had bad-date, worst-case-scenario, awkward-situation, get-home money.

So, my big shot, Cadillac, phone-in-convertible boring date couldn’t pay for dinner. He was stunned and embarrassed. I said, "Let’s get aprons and do the dishes. It would be fun." His face was horror-stricken. He was flustered. Relax, I have the money. Oh, thank God. He swore he’d pay me back tomorrow so many times that I thought it not likely.

He never did. That may tell you something about my date with Donald Trump.

of those weird devices (Susanne Summer and others) sold to women wanting to increase their bust size...

If they don’t pay, I hope it makes headlines - here and in Ireland.

We all know how it’s going to end; the Trumps don’t pay. The only thing of interest will be the proprietors reaction. Will they make excuses, some RW nut job step up and pay? How will she be feeling about Trump in a few months?
