1 April—Eric Trump, the youngest of Donald and the late Ivana’s trio of offspring, is often referred to as the stealth Trump because he’s not in the news nearly as much as big sister Ivanka and big brother Donald Jr. But it appears he’s making up for it now—in a big, big way.

Eric celebrated his 37^th birthday on 6 January 2021, a date that will go down in infamy for events other than Eric Trump’s birthday and Epiphany. That makes him 39 now, in 2023, just four years older than the minimum age the Constitution sets for the President.

Well, young Eric Trump has thrown his hat in the ring for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination. If not the very youngest candidate or potential candidate, he’s certainly one of the youngest.

And don’t forget that the rotten, ungrateful kid apparently has not only the unmitigated chutzpah but the scrotal content to run against his father, the unmitigated bully. Wow! Good for Eric! He appears to be a better man than virtually every other Republican political whore in the country. (Apologies to whores. And to women, come to think of it; they’re the only gender other than men recognized by the GOP.)

Evidently Eric’s campaign will make the official announcement on Tuesday, the very day his father is scheduled to be arraigned for whatever crimes the Manhattan DA and grand jury have indicted him for. Word is, Eric’s campaign kickoff will not be held at Trump Tower or Mar-a-Lago.

That may just be part of the strategy, when you think about it. Because, what if Eric is just being a good son (and, unlike his father, a good soldier) and drawing fire from his embattled old man? The Trumps are expert at that sort of trumping, after all, so it’s entirely possible that Eric will quit the race at the most advantageous time and give all his pledged delegates to dad. Is that brilliant or is that brilliant?

In all events, it’s certain to wrest the GOP presidential nomination from undeserving POTUS wannabes like autocratic hack Ron DeSantis and gerontophobic hack Nikki Haley and give it to egalitarian old non-hack Donald Trump, who certainly deserves his reputation . . .
