Eric Trump Tweets ‘GREAT DAY for the DOW’ As US Coronavirus Death Toll Tops 100,000

Eric Trump, one of President Donald Trump’s three sons, is being called out on social media for celebrating rising stock numbers on the same day US deaths from coronavirus topped 100,000.

As the Dow jumped by 2.21% on Wednesday, Trump ― who runs the family business with his older brother, Don Jr. ― tweeted about the “great day” for the stock market:

GREAT DAY for the DOW!! https://t.co/t0cK3wOKUu

— Eric Trump (@EricTrump) May 27, 2020

Given the growing death toll, the message didn’t go down well:

Not a great day for the 100,000 Americans who died of coronavirus pic.twitter.com/pJk7FVW1ts

100,000 Americans have died. If your father had been a leader of conscience & called for social distancing 2 weeks sooner, with a coordinated national plan, 84,000 of those people might still be alive.

Not a GREAT DAY for the 100,000 DEAD AMERICANS!! (How is every member of this family so utterly awful?) https://t.co/xKqtixwX80

100,000 dead. 36,000,000 unemployed. Ongoing horror for black and native Americans. But, sure, great day for the Dow and, apparently, for this guy. https://t.co/Nkjx13rur2

100,000 people confirmed dead from Covid-19 today.

But it's a "GREAT DAY for the DOW".

Eric Trump, like his dad, is a sociopath. https://t.co/lOKsKCSFyR

I’ll get my Ouija board and tell the 100,000 dead Americans.

Only a Trump would be tweeting about today being a "great day for the Dow" while our death toll from COVID-19 hits 100,000. My God, there isn't a conscience in the whole Trump horde. How utterly disgusting you are, @EricTrump. https://t.co/7UJEQ1S2ok

Less great for the +100,000 Americans who’ve died thanks to your dad’s gross incompetence.
