So Eric Trump described LA protestors today

[senseandsensibility]

as "mongoloids" on one of those god awful podcasts. I can tell by the reactions that that is offensive and racist and I agree. But I mean, mongoloid? What is he even trying to say? Racist and stupid is no way to go through life, son.

1. It isn't in reference to those from Mongolia but a very arcane & disgusting reference to Down's Syndrome people...

Eric Trump is beyond disgusting.

[senseandsensibility]

4. Okay so even worse than I thought

[hlthe2b]

5. Yup...

I always thought JR was the disgusting one, but...

[Attilatheblond]

7. He learned arcane & disgusting from his dad. And it's all the inheritance he will get.

2. The term "Mongoloids" is an outdated and offensive term used to describe people with Down syndrome.

From the 19th century.

3. Uh, Gums. You might want to walk that back you fucking classless asshole!

[EYESORE 9001]

8. Certain anticonvulsants can cause excessive gum growth

but that’s just speculation on my part.

6. "Protestors are mongoloids" says Eric the Protestant. LOL.

Dude, as a Protestant, you're a fucking protestor!

[drmeow]

9. I suspect he doesn't actually

know what it means or what the insult is. He just likes the sound of it as an insult. He was probably trying to mongrels and thought he'd sound more sophisticated if he added aloid at the end.

10. Oh, he knows...

Read up on the severely disabled son of his cousin (Mary's brother), Fred III, whose major medical bills were to have been paid by the estate of Fred Senior (Trump's father). Trump did everything possible to cut him off...

Very likely that the term in the OP above was used by Trump and his disgusting sons in reference to their second cousin.

11. Well, he reminds me of Gary Busey after his head hit the curb in a motorcycle accident.

12. One has to remember this is Eric,

the dumb one.

[BlueSpot]

13. Yeah and I bet his dad called him that any number of times

He's just trying to pass along the hurt while keeping a superior attitude.

I'd feel sorry for him is he wasn't such an asshole.

[republianmushroom]

15. Agree

[madinmaryland]

14. Damn! Someone still uses that word?? It was used long before the "R" word became popular.

[AStern]

16. I need to know why posting their ridiculous statements are necessary?

What exactly is the goal?
