Eric is not very bright and so I really hope that he sues Jen Psaki and MS NOW

President Trump’s son Eric Trump said Friday he will sue MS NOW, formerly MSNBC, and host Jen Psaki after a monologue on her show questioned whether his business interests, combined with traveling with his father on a high-stakes trip to China, was a conflict of interest.

Psaki said on her show “The Briefing” that ALT5 Sigma, a Las Vegas-based fintech company for which Eric Trump once served as a board observer, is seeking a “potential deal with a Chinese computer chip manufacturer to build AI data centers and a whole bunch of other AI-related stuff” connected to China’s government. She cited reporting by the Financial Times.

“I intend to sue @jrpsaki and @MSNOWNews over the below clip,” the president’s son wrote on the social platform X. “To be clear: Contrary to her monolog and blatant lies, I have NEVER been on the board of ALT5 — not now, not ever.”

Eric Trump’s name and listing disappeared from ALT5’s leadership webpage, Bloomberg first reported late last month. He said Friday, however, that “any person with basic access to Google and willing to open a company’s annual report or proxy statements would know this.”

The Trump Organization’s executive vice president added that he has had “zero involvement in any merger discussions involving any public entity” he does not run or control. “I have zero business interests in China. No properties, no investments, nothing!”
