In an interview on Newsmax, President Donald Trump's youngest son Eric claimed that former President Joe Biden tried to provoke his father and wife Melania Trump to get divorced, reports The Daily Beast.
Ranting about Democrats condemning the indictment of former FBI director James Comey, the 41 year-old child of Donald and his late first wife Ivana Trump was "bristling," The Daily Beast says, especially after videos were played of Democrats defending Comey.
"They came at me like I was a dog," Trump claimed as he "rhymed off a laundry list of examples that showed he was targeted by the Biden administration," according to The Daily Beast.
"They tried to impeach my father two times," Trump continued. "You know, they went after him for a Russia hoax that did not exist, that was paid for by Hillary Clinton."
“The FBI and the DOJ spied on my father’s campaign," Trump insisted. "They de-platformed him. They weaponized every attorney general and every district attorney around the country. They indicted him 91 times, 34 times in a bogus trial in New York City."
And then Trump made the most "bizarre claim" of the entire segment," the Beast reports.
“They posted his mugshot," Trump said. "He’s the most recognizable person in the world. They posted his mugshot even though they didn’t need to. It totally backfired on [them]. They gagged him over and over and over! They raided his home! They raided Mar-a-Lago! They tried to get him divorced! They tried to separate our family!"
But Trump wasn't finished.
"They tried to go after our employees," he said. "They attacked us. They tried to bankrupt our company. They de-platformed us! They stripped every bank account away from me and the Trump Organization that you can imagine."
“And [former attorney general] Merrick Garland was at the forefront of all of it. And Joe Biden was at the forefront of all of it when they raided our home, when they raided Mar-a-Lago, when they raided Melania’s closet, when they raided 16-year-old Barron [Trump's] room," Trump concluded.
As for the marriage between his father and third wife Melania, rumors have swirled since last week when a video emerged of the couple seemingly in a heated argument on a helicopter.
"They clearly do not in any way inhabit a marriage as we define marriage,“ author Michael Wolff said of their exchange.
