NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Chris Cuomo faced a tense on-air confrontation with Eric Trump on Monday, October 6, after questioning whether President Donald Trump’s administration was targeting political opponents.
The exchange escalated quickly, with Eric Trump passionately defending his father and accusing Cuomo of mischaracterizing the situation.

Chris Cuomo questions Trump family on political targeting
During the segment, Cuomo asked Eric whether it was fair to say the Trump administration had “gone after its political opponents” in ways the president had publicly opposed. What followed was a nearly three-minute on-air tirade in which Eric Trump listed numerous examples to assert that Donald Trump was the target, not the aggressor.
The exchange began with Cuomo pressing Eric Trump on his father’s actions against political rivals.

“Do you think that it is fair to say it looks like the administration is going after its political opponents now and doing exactly what you say you oppose?” Cuomo asked.
Eric Trump fired back, referencing James Comey: “What, Comey? It certainly seemed like he lied to me. I’m also wondering what an FBI director is doing taking memos from the FBI and leaking them to The New York Times.”

Cuomo pushed further, accusing the administration of pursuing former President Joe Biden. Eric Trump responded by listing numerous alleged actions against the Biden family, emphasizing that his father’s administration did not engage in comparable attacks.
Eric Trump flips the narrative
In a heated response, Eric Trump rattled off multiple claims to counter Cuomo’s accusations, “Did we raid Biden’s home? Did we try and bankrupt Biden? Did we weaponize every AG and DA against Biden? Did we do that against Hunter Biden, who had a laptop from hell, pictures of cocaine, illicit drug use, prostitution?”
He continued, “Did we make up a dirty dossier about Biden? Did they try and destroy Biden’s marriage? Did we make up stories that Biden had secret servers in the basement of his home communicating with the Kremlin in Russia? Did we strip Biden off the ballot of multiple states? Did we take Biden off of Twitter and Instagram and Facebook and try and silence his voice so he couldn’t communicate? Did we put Biden in a courtroom every single day, 91 felony counts that have all been overturned for my father now for nonsense, to try and keep him off of a campaign trail and to try and destroy his life. Did we do any of that?”

Eric’s rapid-fire list left Cuomo visibly taken aback, highlighting the intensity of the confrontation and the sharp divide between the two sides.
Tensions between media and Trump family remain high
The on-air clash illustrates the ongoing friction between the Trump family and the press. Cuomo’s line of questioning reflected long-standing criticism that Donald Trump’s administration targeted political opponents, while Eric Trump’s defensive approach showcased the family’s insistence that the president was unfairly portrayed as aggressive.

The segment concluded without resolution, with Eric Trump maintaining his stance that the administration’s actions were justified, leaving viewers with a striking example of the increasingly combative relationship between the media and the Trump family.
