During the March 25 episode of The Last Word, MS NOW host Lawrence O’Donnell declared Barron “could have marched straight down to a recruiting station and joined the army to fight in his father’s war” after celebrating his 20th birthday.
“But he didn’t,” O’Donnell added. “Before she became Queen Elizabeth, Princess Elizabeth served in uniform during World War II while her father was king of England.”
He queried, “Does Barron Trump know how to drive? Could he drive an ambulance in the army, or is he not quite as tough as the 18-year-old Princess Elizabeth was when she joined the war effort? Imagine being more spoiled than an English princess on her way to becoming queen of England.”
O’Donnell lambasted Barron for being “more spoiled than the British royal family” before taking aim at Donald’s older children, Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump, and their lack of military service.
“Thousands of young American men and women on that day decided to join the United States military, but not the Trumps,” he continued. “As the wars of their era began in Afghanistan and Iraq, Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump followed in the family tradition of silently watching others go off to war.”
Following the recent changes to enlistment age rules, O’Donnell pointed out Eric could still be eligible to serve.
“Eric Trump has been left with a wide open opportunity to become the brave Trump, the first and only brave Trump in history,” he added. “And so tonight, with the three Trumps available for military service in their father’s war, Eric Trump, Tiffany Trump, and Barron Trump, the world waits for the emergence of the first brave Trump.”
