Eric Trump is calling out the coordinated online mob savaging Susan Dell over her appearance — the same crowd that never stops lecturing Americans about decency while targeting anyone who steps into this president's orbit.
The wife of Dell Technologies founder Michael Dell just helped commit $6.25 billion to Trump Accounts, savings vehicles for 25 million American children. That is, by multiple accounts, one of the largest private donations in American history. The response from the usual enforcers: a meme comparing older and newer photos of Dell under the caption "The MAGA Effect," circulating on X.
"Susan and Michael Dell just put $6.25 billion into Trump Accounts for 25 million kids so they'll have something waiting for them when they grow up — one of, if not the largest private donation in American History," Eric Trump posted on X. "The response? Vicious attacks on her."
Trump called the criticism "disgusting" and said he was "tired of this nonsense," closing with a direct message: "On behalf of the overwhelming majority of people in this nation: Thank You!! You are incredible!"
The Dells visited the White House on Oct. 7 as the president announced that every eligible minor child in America was automatically enrolled in a Trump Account — a tax-deferred savings account created under the president's mega-legislation passed in 2025, according to the White House.
Susan Dell praised the program as "so wonderful" and "so important." She urged families to claim their children's accounts. "Knowing someone believes in you and your future, that matters just as much," she said. "To every child across the country, these accounts are for you. We believe in you, and we want you to dream big because we know you can make your dreams come true."
The Dells, married since 1989, carry an estimated net worth of $150 billion and intend to give most of it away before they die, according to Time Magazine. Michael Dell has been sharing photos of "beautiful letters" the couple has received. Neither has publicly addressed the attacks.
The contrast writes itself. While the online mob trains its fire on a woman's appearance, actual money questions inside Washington's institutions get a fraction of the scrutiny. The New York Post reported this week that the White House is now investigating Alina Habba's claim that $5.6 million donated by her Turkish billionaire husband went missing under Ric Grenell's leadership at the Kennedy Center — a story involving a $17.6 million wire transfer, Venezuelan state-owned cement plants, and dueling accounts from administration officials. Grenell denies any wrongdoing. Three sources told the Post they doubt Habba's claims. That's the kind of story — wire transfers, foreign business entanglements, missing millions — that should set off alarms. Instead, the oxygen goes to mocking a woman's face.
The Dells put billions on the line for American kids. The mob came for Susan Dell anyway. That's the deal now: associate with this president or his policies, and the enforcers will find a way to make you pay — not with argument, but with cruelty. The question is whether anyone outside the mob still finds that acceptable.
