MILWAUKEE — Eric Trump criticized Democrats for persecuting former President Donald Trump in a Republican National Convention address echoing his father’s promise to seek retribution for his GOP supporters.

“To all the Americans watching tonight, the greatest retribution will be our success,” Trump told the crowd Thursday before his father’s nomination acceptance speech.

“He is not a threat to democracy, he is a threat to those who despise our republic,” he said.

Trump reiterated that his former president has been “persecuted” and “targeted by far Left Democrats funded by special interest groups and handpicked judges,” adding “each time I have stood on this stage, America has been at a dire crossroads” before citing his father’s record.

“He stood tall, fueled not by personal ambition, but by a profound love for this country and a love for all of you, the American people,” he said. “That man is the 45th president and soon to be 47th president of the United States.”

“He did what he promised,” he said. “He put America first. We were winning. He made America great again.”

As Eric Trump delivered his remarks at the convention, his daughter Carolina was on the former president’s knee, with wife and Republican National Committee co-chair Lara Trump to his side, son Luke in her lap.

Eric’s address can be compared to that of Lara, who underscored the importance of unity after last weekend’s assassination attempt and provided a personal testimony for her father-in-law.

“When I look at Donald Trump, I see a wonderful father, father-in-law and, of course, grandfather to my two young children, Luke and Carolina,” Lara Trump told the convention in its closing speech Tuesday. “It’s through that lens that we sometimes wish more people could see this is a man who has sacrificed for his family and a man who has truly sacrificed for his country.”
