Donald Trump’s son Eric has lashed out at Scottish politicians ahead of a parliamentary debate on whether to launch an investigation into the financing of his father’s resorts.

The debate in the Scottish parliament, scheduled for 5 p.m. on Wednesday, was called by Scottish Greens co-leader Patrick Harvie, who is urging the government to seek a so-called unexplained wealth order (UWO) against the Trump Organization’s two golf courses in Scotland.

A UWO is a relatively new piece of British criminal legislation, requiring the subject to explain how exactly their assets were acquired. If their reasoning is not satisfactory, then the assets are “presumed to be recoverable property,” meaning they could be seized.

Eric Trump, an executive vice president of the Trump Organization, hit back late Tuesday, singling out Harvie.

“Patrick Harvie is nothing more than a national embarrassment with his pathetic antics that only serve himself and his political agenda,” he said, according to a statement quoted in multiple British newspapers.

5. Amusing follow-up quote from Harvie

On Wednesday, he responded to Eric Trump on the BBC, saying that “as entertaining as Eric Trump’s tantrum is, he doesn’t say where his dad got the money to buy his Scottish golf courses.”

11. This has been in the works for years.

The Scots have been patiently waiting to get their hands on The Don to expose his shady Russian business deals. Seeing Don-Lite throwing a hissy fit must surely let them know they have hit a nerve.
