Eric Trump just stepped in it
If Donald Trump’s kids were smart, they’d be busy trying to cutting plea deals against him while they still have some leverage. Trump is on track to lose the election, and if he does, the entire Trump crime family will quickly find itself facing financial collapse and legal jeopardy.
But Donald Trump’s kids aren’t exactly smart. Donald Trump Junior now spends his days tweeting about increasingly hallucinatory conspiracy theories that he thinks are somehow going to magically save his father. Meanwhile Eric Trump is busy going on the Judge Jeanine show – which is lowbrow even for Fox News – and saying stupid things.
Eric Trump is now pushing the notion that the coronavirus – a worldwide pandemic that has killed roughly ninety thousand Americans with no signs of slowing down – will “magically disappear” after the election (if the video below doesn’t load on your device, go here instead):

This kind of tinfoil hat lunacy may be music to the ears of Donald Trump’s mentally unstable base. But Trump’s base alone isn’t large enough to propel him to victory. And the kind of idiotic nonsense being spewed by Trump’s kids merely turns off undecided voters.
