Ellen Mocks Eric Trump for Suggesting She’s Part of ‘Deep State’ — Watch
Ellen DeGeneres is not familiar with any shadow government looking to take down President Donald Trump. In fact, she’s barely familiar with first son Eric Trump.
“Which one is Eric?” she asked at the top of her latest monologue. “Did he kill the elephant or the cheetah?”
The daytime talk show host was forced to discuss politics after Eric suggested on Tuesday that Twitter wanted him to follow members of an alleged “Deep State,” including former president Barack Obama, former secretary of state Hillary Clinton, and, well…

“Apparently I’m part of some secret government conspiracy called the ‘Deep State,'” DeGeneres told her audience. “It’s supposed to be a group of people that… are trying to undermine Donald Trump, which is ridiculous because no one undermines Donald Trump more than Donald Trump.”
DeGeneres then went on to address Eric directly, saying, “I am honored you think I am powerful enough to part of a government conspiracy, [but] I am sorry to disappoint you. I am not part of the ‘Deep State.'” She then explained how it wouldn’t fit into her already hectic schedule: “I’ve got my gay agenda meetings on Mondays. On Wednesday, Beyoncé and I host an Illuminati brunch. And then Portia and I on the weekends are desperately trying to have a baby, so I can’t. I don’t have time.”
Press PLAY on the video above to hear why DeGeneres thinks Eric should still go ahead and follow her on Twitter, then hit the comments and tell us what you thought of her overall response.
If a guy can’t even crop a screenshot correctly, he’s kind of asking for it. That said, I much prefer Seth Meyers’ bit suggesting that the President has Eric on his tax returns written as a loss.
Eric probably just fears what he doesn’t understand, so he is put off by the insidious and nefarious daily message on her show to, “Be kind to one another”. Considering who his father is, that has to be a foreign concept to him.
I loved Ellen’s response ,it was funny.
Deep state? Nah.
Hypocrite? Definitely 100%
Ellen is a classy Human.
I can’t take her as a serious person to be respected when she fawns over the kardashians!
At this point I despise both sides in any political conflict. They’re exhausting.
Wow… and that explains, in part, why they get away with it.
Imagine believing the only reason you can’t win, end up on top or be admired is because of a vast conspiracy working night & day against you. People get up each morning with the singular goal of sabotaging you. Oh to live in Trumpland. A few minutes with my dad would cure them of this notion.
Katrina, Thats funny and so true.
Eric, if Twitter disgusts you so much, maybe you should stay off of it. In fact, maybe your whole family should stay off of it.
The stupidity clearly does not fall far from the tree in the Trump family. Wow, what a moron.
.
Ellen’s response is gold :D.
As someone who watched the Jesus Campos interview, I wonder…
