Fox Host Laughs at Eric Trump After he Claims His Father Came From ‘Just About Nothing’

Today on Outnumbered, Eric Trump tried to hold up his father, Donald Trump, as “the epitome of the American dream.”

Julie Roginsky was having none of it.

The Outnumbered panelist laughed out loud when the businessman’s son said that the elder Trump has “gone from just about nothing.”

“Nothing?!” Roginsky said. “He got a million bucks! Come on, Eric.”

Undaunted, Eric Trump continued trying to make his case by invoking a latter-day business titan.

“It’s no different than a Zuckerberg, right? Who went out with a great idea like a Facebook and developed this idea and built it and grew it and grew it and grew it. That is achieving something, right?”

Roginsky said nothing but kept smiling, clearly skeptical of what she was hearing. Watch above, via Fox News.
