Eric Trump’s Post About Buying Other Countries on Amazon Goes Viral [Video]

What’s New

Eric Trump posted on social media Monday night, in an apparent joke about the United States being able to buy territories on Amazon, after his father, President-elect Donald Trump said he would take back the Panama Canal and buy Greenland.

The post on X, formerly Twitter, received over 7,000 replies, with some calling the mock-up of an online shopping cart “disrespectful” and “disturbing”, while others backed Trump’s caption of: “We are so back!!!”

Why It Matters

The post, while seemingly in jest, comes after the President-elect made more serious comments about owning and controlling Greenland, demanding the return of the Panama Canal, and that Canada could be the next U.S. state. The comments were met with backlash from international leaders and experts.
