Eric Trump Claims Black Voters Are Turning To His Dad 'In Spades'
Eric Trump, son of Donald Trump, claimed his father’s conviction on 34 felony charges last week is making “certain segments” of the population more likely to vote for him.
“For the first time, they realize that the system’s coming down, that he’s the victim, he’s the victim that oftentimes some of their communities were,” he told Fox News host Maria Bartiromo on Sunday. “You see them swinging. Look at the African American vote, right? That’s swinging over to Donald Trump in spades.”
He said independent, Hispanic and youth voters are also swinging toward his father.
Trump’s critics aren’t buying it ― and they couldn’t believe his choice of words:
Sorry, spades? https://t.co/n2qv57uWZr

Wrong.
And maybe don’t use “spade” when referencing Black Americans. #KnowYourAudiencehttps://t.co/MRUOIszQ9y— Aaron D. Ford (@AaronDFordNV) June 2, 2024
1. Your daddy is not a victim
2. Your daddy is not becoming any more popular (or less unpopular) with black people
3. You just used a racial slur for African-Americans while attempting to speak for all of the them AND lying about them “swinging over their support” to your daddy https://t.co/pTZhUQiQw8— Andrew—Author of America Rises On Substack (@AmoneyResists) June 3, 2024
It takes a clueless Trump to claim that African-American voters are swinging over to Donald Trump "in spades." https://t.co/1twnx719en

So, the son of the man who went after the "Central Park Five" now thinks Daddy has a lot in common with the African American community. https://t.co/m96VBkHqoM
