Donald Trump and his spawn have been targeting states — largely Democratic ones — that have been locked down due to orders from Governors who are trying to keep their citizens safe from the coronavirus pandemic. And Trump’s family has seen some of their business shuttered, so they appear to be more concerned over finances. More than eighty thousand Americans have died from COVID-19, and upwards of thirty-three million have found themselves suddenly jobless as they shelter at home.
It’s called doing the right thing, but that’s beyond Eric Trump’s grasp as he called for governors and elected officials representing states that have locked down to forgo their salaries until they reopen their economies.
“Why are governors and elected officials from states that are closed still getting paid?” the first brat asked.
Why are governors and elected officials from states that are closed still getting paid? Is @realDonaldTrump the only one in government refusing a salary? I vote to stop paying them until their states are reopened and their constituents are back at work.

Get off your high horse! Your dad, sister & brother-in-law are making BANK while “working” in WH but good try at deflection from 77,500+ dead, Beavis. #TrumpPandemicFailure #LaughingStockOfTheWorld

They are closed to protect lives. Don’t try to paint governors taking science seriously as being lazy. Your dad costing the tax payer tens of millions of dollars golfing is lazy.

A survey found that in all 50 states, Americans say their governor is doing a better job than President Trump at handling the coronavirus outbreak. Go cry in your pillow, Eric. The grown-ups are trying to get shit done.
