Eric Trump tried his hand at political punditry during Wednesday’s Democratic presidential debate, but his childish takes did not go over well.
President Donald Trump’s son began by tweeting that he was “already bored.”
I’m already bored

A debate isn’t supposed to be The Jerry Springer Show. You dad turned them into a 3-ring circus. He insults, belittled, name calls, make s#*t up, but he doesn’t debate. He doesn’t know how to.

Not as tired and bored as the American people are of you and your whole clown show of a family, Eric. Believe me. 😂

Not bored. Boring. You’re already boring. Tenses are hard.
