As we reported earlier, Eric Trump is afraid of incriminating himself, so the twice-impeached one-term President’s son invoked the Fifth Amendment 500 times in six hours. New York Attorney General Letitia James is investigating the Trump Organization, and Eric Trump went there, taunting her on Twitter. It’s a dumb thing to do, but he’s good at making bad decisions.
Eric started by calling James by her first name, then said: “you can not escape your own words. This is all window dressing for your abuse of office and ethical misconduct (which we are prosecuting you for) and northing (SIC) more than a PR move to revive a political career after your gubernatorial disaster.”
Letitia you can not escape your own words.

New Yorkers: When you see women pushed to their death in front of Subway cars, when children are shot in the middle of Times Square, know that the Cy Vance and Letitia James prioritized investigating Trump over fighting crime. They are responsible for the mess that is New York. pic.twitter.com/KckroVSJLJ

Judge:”When a defendant exerts his 5th Amendment rights,you should not read guilt into his statement.”
Jury:” How about 500 times?”— TetsuoTardigrade⚖ (@TetsuoYarbrough) January 19, 2022
“which we are prosecuting you for”

No one has ever accused Eric of being smart. New Yorkers can spot a con from a mile away. That’s why the Trump family is not liked in the Big Apple. Like everyone else in New York, Tish James is well aware that Donald Trump is as crooked as a dog’s hind leg.
