Eric Trump calls his father live on stage during Turning Point event

Eric Trump called his father live on stage during a Turning Point USA event on the campus of Auburn University in Alabama. President Donald Trump then told a packed arena, “We love Charlie” and, “He’s looking down on us right now.”

The president’s son, who was co-hosting the event with his wife, Lara Trump, drew cheers on Wednesday night when he asked those in attendance, “By the way, should we see what he is doing right now? Should we try calling him?”

“Hello? Hello?” Donald Trump was heard saying on the call as Eric Trump held his phone up to a microphone, drawing a raucous applause.

“So we have the most beautiful crowd of people, thousands and thousands of people at Auburn University. They are incredibly enthusiastic, and they absolutely adore this country, they adore God, and they adore you,” Eric Trump said.

And Erika, I’ve spoken to her often, she is just a spectacular person, and she is going to start where Charlie left off, and we should never allow this to happen,” the president also said, referencing the Sept. 10 assassination of Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University.
