Trump Shooter Thomas Crooks Was Cremated Faster Than 'Most Household Pets', Eric Trump Says

Eric Trump, son of Donald Trump, echoed criticisms faced by the FBI following the attempted assassination of the former President in Butler, Pennsylvania, insinuating that shooter Thomas Matthew Crooks' body was released and cremated sooner than it should've been.

"I'm going to get hit for saying this, but this guy got cremated faster than most household pets that pass away," said Eric.

"Why haven't they figured out who this guy was? Why haven't they gotten into his phones?" he continued.

Eric outlined what a second Trump term in the nation's highest office would look like, placing emphasis upon his belief that his father would not seek punishment for political rivals if he were to be re-elected in an interview with the Daily Mail.

"He would want nothing to do with prosecuting Hunter Biden or Hillary Clinton, he doesn't give a damn. He wants these games to end," said Eric. "He wants a safe, prosperous world and a fruitful society. He wants to get back to a country that is actually functional that wins on everything we do. He wants to win on education, safety, economy, military - he doesn't want to go into senseless wars."

"He wants the respect of the entire world," Eric continued.

Eric, who said he predicted that an attempt on his father's life months before the incident in Butler occurred, criticized the FBI's handling of the situation. Eric stated that he believed there was more to the gunman than what was on the surface, and that he wanted real answers about Crooks from law enforcement agencies.

"Why haven't they figured out who this guy was? Why haven't they gotten into his phones?" said Eric. "'This isn't just something that the American people want to know, this is something the entire world deserves to know. They tried to kill the commander-in-chief, the former commander-in-chief and very likely the future commander-in-chief on a national stage."

"Had they been successful in doing that and were it not for the Grace of God, America would have looked like a Third World country. And they can't figure out, the greatest law enforcement agencies in the world, can't figure out who this guy was?" he continued.

Eric closed out his interview by expressing optimism regarding his father's chances in the upcoming election.

He stated that he hoped people 'will be voting with their wallets and with their sanity.'
