The wisdom of Eric Trump:

“Honestly, I think it’s a good thing for us,” he said when asked about the government shutdown, which took place Saturday after Congress failed to agree a new federal budget.

“People see through it. I mean, people have seen a year that’s incredible. It’s been filled with nothing but the best for our country, ‘America First’ policies, and they’re happy with where we are as a nation.”

He claimed that Democrats want to shut the government down because they want to stop his father’s momentum.

“I mean, my father has had incredible momentum. He has gotten more done in one year than arguably any president in history. How do they divert from that message? How do they save their own party when they don’t have any leadership, they don’t have any good candidates out there, they don’t have a message of their own? How do they do that? They obstruct, they distract, they try and place blame,” he said.

It really seems that the only “smart one” in this family is Tiffany.
