President Donald Trump's son told Fox News host Sean Hannity on Tuesday that he's "never seen hatred like this" and "morals have flown out the window" when it comes to attacks against his father.
Eric Trump took special aim at the Democratic Party, which he said is "imploding", calling Democratic National Committee chairman Tom Perez "a total wackjob".
The Democrats "have no message of their own" and are trying to obstruct "a great man" in his father and his family.
In a statement on Wednesday, Perez responded: "Democrats are people. So are Muslims, immigrants, women, people with pre-existing conditions, and everyone else Trump is hurting."
Eric Trump and his brother, Donald Jr, are running the family company with their father in the White House.
