Eric Trump Blasted On Twitter For His Skewed Poll About Joe Biden
Eric Trump’s Twitter poll on Wednesday garnered plenty of response.
But, sadly for President Donald Trump’s son, most of the reaction to his skewed question about presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden was mocking:
Joe Biden and his radical left-wing party want open borders and closed schools. Conversely, my father wants open schools and closed borders. Which do you choose?

Trump conveniently ignored the fact that Biden is not campaigning for open borders. Biden also does want to reopen schools but once appropriate measures are in place to combat the spread of the coronavirus. The president has ordered schools to reopen in the fall under threat of losing federal funds.
Tweeters pulled no punches and some hit back with polls of their own:
Tweets like this are evidence that the @nbcsnl portrayal of Eric Trump in its comedy sketches is, if anything, too kind when it comes to his intellect. https://t.co/Z2CwkW7U6I

Most Americans want schools online this year because Donald Trump has endangered the lives of millions of kids.
Forcing 9-year-olds into enclosed spaces may be deadly.
Eric, where will your own brother/nieces/nephews be? In a public school classroom? Doubtful. And rightly so! pic.twitter.com/ZfmnSRWu92— Russell Drew (@RussOnPolitics) July 8, 2020
Brilliant poll, you jackass.
Why don’t you ask two more ridiculous things that have nothing to do with each other—like this:
Which would you rather do?— JΛKΣ (@USMCLiberal) July 8, 2020
Hi,
Florida here. There are 400+ cases in my neighborhood and 2k within ten miles. The last thing we need are open schools.
Oh, and Biden isn't for open borders.
Oh, oh...and your dad will lose Florida over this. Arizona, too. And even f*ing Texas is in play.

Excellent question! Let's analyze:
If your goal is to kill as many non-rich Americans as humanly possible - you DEFINITELY open the schools.
If you want to honor:
1) American Values
2) the Statue of Liberty
You open the borders.
I see why the Trump*s chose "Schools". https://t.co/VMXF2zuI9k— Mark Judson For Congress - Scorched Earth Democrat (@Judson4Congress) July 8, 2020
How much Trump in our lives?
— JRehling (@JRehling) July 8, 2020
Damn, you left out the third choice.
3. Impeach Trump and prosecute all crimes committed by the Trump family.
That's my choice.— Mike Masin (@MikePhotoGuy) July 8, 2020
Let the young get sick and die - some choice by @realDonaldTrump

Let’s see Mexico has closed their border with the US because of trumps incompetent response to covid. Opening schools is just going to increase the spread and cause more deaths.
Which do I choose?
I choose @JoeBiden— The Tangerine Tantrum (@TheTangerineTa1) July 8, 2020
