Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump block political pundit on Twitter because they can’t handle the heat
Last week Donald Trump began blocking people on Twitter who were making fun of his dumbest tweets, suggesting he could no longer take the heat on his own longtime bullying platform. Now it turns out Trump’s sons, Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr, have also begun blocking people whom they don’t like – suggesting they can’t take the heat either.
Political pundit Scott Dworkin of the Democratic Coalition has been digging into the Trump family’s connections to Russia for some time. That’s included the actions of Donald Jr and Eric. He must have touched a nerve on Saturday, because they both blocked blocked Dworkin on Twitter:

But that didn’t deter Dworkin, who kept going after Donald Trump Jr’s Russian connections:
Don Jr blocked my twitter—so I wanted to remind u we uncovered a speech he made in Russia @ a real estate conferencehttps://t.co/INkY4WjEKH

This raises the question of why three close-knit members of the Trump family have all begun blocking their adversaries on Twitter this week. There’s nothing to suggest that Donald Trump Sr even knows how to use something like the block feature. Are his sons the ones who took over his account and began blocking people on dad’s behalf? Or has that newly hired Trump-Russia attorney advised the entire family to begin blocking people on Twitter? We’re still investigating whether Ivanka Trump has begun blocking people as well.
