Eric Trump Questions Investigation into Father's Assassination Attempt
Eric Trump, son of the president, expressed frustration over the ongoing investigation of Thomas Matthew Crooks, the lone gunman who tried to assassinate his father at a Pennsylvania rally in July 2024. Despite not considering himself a conspiracy theorist, Eric said the lack of details about Crooks has left him "pissed off."
Concerns About the Investigation
Eric Trump criticized the investigation, saying, "Nothing about it looks right." He highlighted the scarcity of public information regarding Crooks, a 20-year-old with almost no online presence or known connections.
"We see a picture of a kid who looks like he's 14 years old, and we've seen no other pictures of him. We don't know who he is."
Unanswered Questions
- Eric pointed out Crooks had multiple cellphones, yet this detail remains unexplained.
- He questioned the quick cremation of Crooks—happening within five or six days—comparing it to the longer time it often takes for family pets to be cremated.
"The kid was cremated in like 5 days or 6 days. Like, most family pets take longer to be cremated."
Regarding his feelings toward the investigation, Eric added, "In fact, not only am I unsatisfied, I'm wholly pissed off about it, and I remain pissed off about it."
Summary
Eric Trump demands transparency and answers about the mysterious circumstances surrounding the would-be assassin's identity and the official probe's handling.
