Eric Trump thought it’d be a good idea to go on social media and gloat over his daddy’s renaming of Lake Ontario to Lake America as part of the White House’s ongoing tariff and trade war with Canada.
But as he soon discovered, that was a huge mistake.
Eric shared a photo of himself wearing a red baseball cap emblazoned with the words “LAKE AMERICA.” The cap is now part of the merchandise that can be found at the Trump Store online.
Here’s what Eric posted on Twitter:

Cute, huh? But Eric probably wished he had never made the post after others on social media joined the fun.
