Eric Trump Absolutely TORCHES Smug Liberal Reporter Trying to Gaslight America on Trump Lawfare [WATCH]

Dan Bongino responded to a recent interview exchange involving Eric Trump, arguing that actions taken against President Trump went beyond ordinary political disagreements and entered the realm of criminal conduct.

Bongino criticized the framing of the interview.

“This guy, this interviewer, has the balls to tell Eric Trump, like, hey man, I think you guys, like, may have been making a big deal out of this,” Bongino said.

“It just seems like standard politics, standard politics, they raided a former president’s freaking house, you clown.”

He added, “And thank God Eric Trump kicked right back on. This is what I’m talking about. By counter irritation and then blame the Republicans and make it out like they’re the ones weaponizing government. Check this out.”

In the interview clip, the interviewer asked Eric Trump whether some of the pressure his family faced could be attributed to policy disagreements.

“I take that point. My point is, is that some of the siege that you faced, and I understand why it was very personal and distressing. Can you accept that some of it was just people legitimately disagreeing with your father’s policies and using every lever available, as people generally do in politics, in order to push back?” the interviewer asked.

Eric Trump rejected that characterization.

“No, no, hold on one second,” Eric Trump responded.

“I mean, there are politics and there is peaceful discourse, right over over the fact that two people might might disagree on abortion, people might disagree on gun rights, people might disagree on the limitations of freedom of speech.”

He continued, “Right? People can have these disagreements on either side, and they can do so, and they can debate certain things. And you know, whoever wins that debate and the populace ultimately wins.”

Eric Trump then contrasted that with actions taken against his family.

“That’s different than raiding somebody’s house. That’s different than subpoenaing their children with the intent to literally try and bankrupt a company,” he said.

“That’s different than calling every financial institution and telling them to debank a person.”

He also referenced other allegations.

“That’s different than making up dirty dossiers. We’re saying that there are golden you know, what’s happening with prostitution when it was totally fabricated and paid by the opposition,” Eric Trump said.

“That’s criminal type behavior. That’s not democracy. That’s not the debate of ideas where people can have different perspective.”

Bongino expanded on what he described as a broader pattern in political discourse.

“Folks, one of the goals of this show, and we’ve been doing it a long time, about 10 years, a little over 10 years now, is always been to take a whole bunch of information and distill it down, distill it down into digestible bits,” Bongino said.

He introduced what he calls the “counter irritation principle.”

“So it’s easy to understand the counter irritation principle. Once you notice it, you can never un notice it. You can’t unsee it,” Bongino said.

“They do this all the time. They cause you pain on whatever it may be, dei Obamacare, and then they go and blame the other party for the problem they cause, causing a distraction from the irritation they cause.”

Bongino argued that the interviewer was minimizing documented events.

“This media guy is clearly playing into that by downplaying the vicious attacks against Donald Trump, we all know that are a matter of freaking historical record,” he said.

“They’re not a matter of opinion, and he makes it out like, Oh, you guys are just whining and moaning.”

He then referenced his tenure at the FBI.

“Yet, during at least my tenure there at the FBI, when we went and made Indic and built cases that were indictable and prosecutable later, when we built cases against Comey, Leticia, James Bolton, I had to write them down, as I’ve you know, if sometimes they don’t come to mind, right?” Bongino said.

He continued, “We had a lot of them. Gavin Newsom’s Chief of Staff, the Kathy Hochul staff member. We built cases against the New Orleans mayor and others there were, there was a entire police department in one case.”

Bongino said those investigations were conducted using proper procedures.

“We had to build a case on these public corruption files. We were immediately accused, despite these cases, in building the probable cause the right way based on hard evidence, we were accused of politicizing the place,” he said.

He concluded by returning to the broader point.

“This is the counter irritation principle,” Bongino said.

“Look, I just pulled this random article out, what is this, the Milwaukee independent or whatever, how cash Patel weaponized the FBI into a political tool for Trump’s retribution against critics. We actually had to go and build cases the right way.”
