NOT THE ONION...Boy who stole money raised for kids with cancer eyeballs a 2028 run

If Trump doesn’t make an attempt to buck the Constitution and run for president once again in 2028, which he has hinted at, his middle son, Eric, has indicated he might like to take his turn in the Oval Office.

According to a report from Newsweek’s Theo Burman, Eric made rumblings about jumping from the Trump family business into a run, likely against a handful of Republicans seeking the MAGA crown and what comes with it.

The report notes that Eric Trump spoke with Nikkei Asia on Sunday during an overseas trip where he is promoting cryptocurrency, when talk turned to a Trump “dynasty.”

According to Newsweek's Burman, Eric Trump stated, "I'm not ruling it out. I'm not saying no, but I'm also not saying yes."

Being the most successful crime family in the history of the world.

When you are in the White House you can commit the biggest heist in US history.

Sounds like his wife’s idea more than his.

BTW Don Jr. is still very popular with the cult.
