3. Eric is Masterful at the Re-Direct (But Maybe Not English)

At the DNC, Khizr Khan, the father of a fallen soldier, gave a powerful anti-Trump speech while standing next to his wife, Ghazala, who remained quiet as she was overcome with emotion. That didn’t stop Donald Trump from suggesting that she was quiet because the Khan’s Muslim faith prevented her from speaking. A few days later, Eric weighed in on the controversy by claiming Trump’s comments weren’t anti-Muslim, they were anti-terrorist. “My father’s simple message – it’s not an anti-Muslim message, it’s [an] anti-terror message,” he said. “You know, we have ISIS and they’re running in rampant around the world and we have to do something about it and quite frankly, if you look at Hillary.” That last thought may not be a complete sentence, but it’s certainly loyal. Also, what is “running in rampant”?
