Eric Trump told Fox News '95 percent' of people support his father, President Donald Trump.
It wasn't just President Donald Trump who was at the sharp end of CBS host Stephen Colbert's barbed wit, his son Eric also got a roasting on. Colbert mocked Eric Trump's insistence on Fox News that the vast majority of people supported his father.
After mocking the efficacy of the House of Representatives' condemnation of the president's"racist comments," Colbert said the Republicans"make it look easy" in defending"obvious racism." Colbert then took aim at the president's second son, saying:"But perhaps the dullest knife in the Republican drawer is presidential son… Eric Trump.","My father is in there, and he's fighting every single day. And he has to fight against the media. He has to fight against these lunatics. And guys, I'm telling you, 95 percent of this country is behind him in this message.
The CBS host said:"Yeah, 95, I'm telling ya. 95 percent is behind my Dad, okay. Okay, you better check my math, okay, he lost the popular vote, okay, lowest approval rating of all time," as he showed two fingers that he fashioned into bunny ears.
