Eric Trump lashes out at cousin Fred who ‘decided to cash in’ with scathing tell-all memoir despite ‘unwavering support’ from family

Eric Trump has defended his father and railed against his cousin Fred, who branded the Republican candidate “evil” in his revealing new memoir.

The family feud exploded into public view on Tuesday after Eric posted a scathing message on Facebook in which he described Fred Trump III as a profiteer.

“It is disappointing that after decades of unconditional love, support, golf memberships, family vacations, and millions of dollars in support for his wonderful son, Fred Trump has decided to ‘cash in’ less than 100 days before the election.

“I signed the checks and saw firsthand how my father and our family provided endless financial support so Fred’s son could receive the best possible medical care,” Eric wrote.

‘When you read this nonsense and see that he is now following his troubled sister to make a quick buck, it is disgusting, disheartening and a textbook example of “no good deed goes unpunished.”‘

Fred Trump, 61, made a series of accusations against his uncle in the book “All in the Family: The Trumps and How We Got this Way.”

One of his claims is that the former president told his nephew that his severely disabled son “should just die.”

In the book, Donald is also portrayed as “evil” for cheating Fred out of the family fortune by tricking his mentally handicapped grandfather Fred Sr. into signing papers.

Fred also claims that the “obnoxious” young Donald hated his siblings so much that they would throw mashed potatoes at him across the dinner table.

The memoir, released today, comes despite Fred III previously criticizing his sister Mary for writing a revealing 2020 book that also painted an unflattering picture of the former president.

He delves into the dysfunctional situation within the Trump family and writes that Tiffany Trump had a “painful” childhood because of all the gossip surrounding her mother Marla Maples.

Maples and Trump became popular in the tabloids in the 1990s amid allegations of infidelity. Fred’s aunt Maryanne, a former federal judge, reportedly was not a fan of her brother’s second wife.

Fred also writes that Maryanne became enraged by his time in the White House. She claims she was enraged by Donald’s immigration policies.

He claims Maryanne called them “horrible” and said, “Can you believe the things he says?”

Fred also spoke with ABC news Before the release of his book, he told the outlet that his uncle was “nuclear-mouthed.”

He said he witnessed his uncle using racial slurs decades ago and that he also plans to vote for Kamala Harris.

Fred described Trump’s behavior as “complex and sometimes cruel” in an interview with the newspaper.

He said: ‘And in every family people know this, families are complicated. Every family has its crazy uncle.

“My uncle Donald is a nuclear nut. And he left his mark on the family history.”

When asked to elaborate, he added that it “means he does things that, even though I know him well now, I shudder a little bit and say: Is this the same man I knew?

“What makes him change? What made him this way?” But that said, I’ve always had a good relationship.

“But he’s done some really horrible things to me that some people will say, ‘How can you still want to be in a relationship with him?’ He’s my uncle. He’s family, and that means a lot.”

Fred’s book contains a chapter titled “The Race Card,” in which he describes his memories of the former president using a racial slur.

He claims he remembers Donald arriving at his grandparents’ house screaming at the age of ten because his El Dorado convertible had been damaged.

Freed recalls, “I walked into the driveway of my grandparents’ house and there was his white El Dorado convertible with two stripes on it.

“I remember it. And he had electrical tape, because the roof was black. And he used the N-word, twice, just to say who he thought probably did this.”

In a statement to ABC News, Trump campaign communications director Steven Cheung denied the claims about the former president.

Cheung said: ‘This is completely made up and totally fake news of the highest order.

“It is appalling that a lie so blatantly disgusting could be printed in the media. Anyone who knows President Trump knows he would never use such language, and false stories like this have been thoroughly debunked.”

Fred is the son of Donald’s older brother, Fred Trump Jr, or ‘Freddie’ as he was called, who died in 1981 at the age of 42 after a lifetime of alcohol addiction.

‘All in the Family’ candidly chronicles the Trumps’ privileged upbringing in Queens, New York, along with his four siblings.
