Eric Trump gets confused, seems to think his brother is President of the United States

Dear Palmer Report readers, we all understand the difficult era we're heading into. Major media outlets are caving to Trump already. Even the internet itself and publishing platforms may be at risk. But Palmer Report is nonetheless going to lead the fight. We're funding our 2025 operating expenses now, so we can keep publishing no matter what happens. I'm asking you to contribute if you can, because the stakes are just so high. You can donate here.

This morning Twitter temporarily suspended Donald Trump Junior’s account, after he tweeted dangerous false medical information regarding the coronavirus epidemic. In response, Eric Trump tweeted this. See if you can spot the problem here:

What an absolute joke. This is censorship friends and they do it to all of us! If they are willing to censor the President of the United States, believe me they will take away your voice the second you disagree with their politics. Please remember this on November 3rd. @Twitter https://t.co/s0FobtSlpH

That’s right, Eric Trump seems to think his brother Donald Trump Junior is President of the United States. To be fair, Twitter also removed two factually false tweets posted by Donald Trump. But Eric Trump is clearly referring to the Donald Trump Junior incident while insisting that the “President of the United States” has been censored. This is dumb, even for Eric Trump.
