Eric Trump: My father's life has become 'exponentially worse' since running for president......

“My father’s life became exponentially worse the minute he decided to run for president. He didn’t need to do this, but he was 'immensely frustrated' with where the country was going,” Eric Trump, the president's second son, told Westchester Magazine.

“There would be far fewer headaches if it weren’t for politics,” Trump said, before adding the inconveniences were worth it “when you know you’re in it for the right reasons.” Given the high-profile nature of his role as a surrogate, Eric Trump said he was more forgiving of the resulting media scrutiny, but insisted his younger siblings deserved privacy.

“Every day, you get abused by somebody,” he said. “And the next thing you know, you’re being parodied on 'Saturday Night Live.' It comes with the territory. We stood center stage with my father during the campaign and beyond.”

“We are adults; we’ve developed a bit of an armor,” Eric Trump continued, referring to eldest brother Donald Trump Jr. and Ivanka Trump. “But Barron and Tiffany should be 100 percent off-limits.”

Indeed..but his family gets those punches as well..a lot! And that surely causes him grief when it gets as nasty as they’ve been to melania and Ivanka. Saying Any President is physically abusing his wife....and calling A Presidents daughter a C***...in the tone and manner it was said is pretty bad.

‘WE’ are the civil society.....they are attempting to destroy it. They jumped into the Obama/Hillary wagon and even when well past that ride they can’t get out nor put the breaks on....so they’ll be driving themselves off the cliff.

He’s better than Reagan in my humble opinion. Reagan was really good too though.

Hillary would be a billionaire by now if in office and the number of oddly convenient deaths to the Clintons would likely be piling up too.

A conga line of Democrat lies in the form of commercials?

I would not let that sway me trying to vote these leftist extremest out of office. You probably recall, Republican Meg Whitman spent $178.5 million, a historic amount and much of it was her own money. And all that cash/commercials and she still couldn't buy the governors office after her illegal alien servant ratted her out and then she lied about it.

Every patriot in CA who wanted relief from the decades long invasion of illegals, were in no mood to support that level of BS. So disgusting, she outspent leftist Brown 6 to 1 and still lost. I'm thinking the leftist today have surpassed Whitman's BS way back when Trump was campaigning. And now the quite undercurrent is much stronger. Strong enough where I sense it.

Yes. He is actually proving a contention that Hillary herself made some years ago when she said his wealth meant he could look at office as service rather than enrichment.

And of course Hillary knows from enrichment rather than service.

This is exactly right. President Trump is unique in the history of presidents. He took a step down from a comfortable, lavish lifestyle where nearly everyone liked him. He knew the cost and did it anyway.

Did Obama, Bush, or Clinton sacrifice to be president? No. Perhaps Reagan a little, but not on the level of Trump.

Trump made real sacrifices to Make America Great Again. God bless President Trump.

The vicious, irrational hatred of Trump is demonic.

How else can you explain the depth of hatred these people have?

President Trump to my knowledge the first President in living memory, possibly ever, to leave office poorer than when he entered.

Yes it has. And thankfully the President is keeping his promises to the American people.

Ain’t anything intimate about what Eric stayed. It is the truth and has been plastered all over the msm

What is your problem?

All Eric did is say out loud what we have all been watching. Unless you are a never Trumper I don’t see the problem

The kinds of things that have been done to the President and his family most certainly are not part of the territory

Why should either brother be quiet about the incredibly awful things that are being done to and said about the Trump family

He speaks the truth and you weasel out. Unless you are a never Trumper I don’t see any problem here
