Eric Trump And Sean Hannity Blame Barack Obama For Ukraine ‘Corruption’
The Fox News host and Donald Trump’s son continued pushing unfounded accusations against Joe Biden amid the Ukraine whistleblower scandal.
By Ron Dicker


Sean Hannity and Eric Trump continued hyping unproven accusations against Joe Biden on Thursday ― and they dragged former President Barack Obama into it.

On Hannity’s prime time Fox News show, the cable news personality and the president’s son resurrected long-debunked speculation that then-Vice President Biden urged the dismissal of a Ukrainian prosecutor in 2016 to push the business interests of his son there. And they blamed then-President Obama, saying he lacked oversight at the time and has failed to speak about it since.

“I think there is a very big reason that Obama is being quiet, because all of this abuse of power, all of this corruption, all happened on his watch,” Hannity said in the exchange, shared by Media Matters above.

To which Eric Trump replied: “There is no question it leads right to him. And by the way, it’s not exactly like, you know, he’s a quiet guy. And he has run away from this. He has run away from his vice president. Could you imagine if the roles were reversed, right, and this was Mike Pence, right? I mean they would be killing my father right now.”

Why has he been activated all of a sudden? He's almost as annoying and ignorant as that pissant brother of his.
