Leftist Trolls Attack Family of Cancer Survivor for Thanking Eric Trump

For many on the Left, when it comes to the Trump family, there are no bounds.

The aunt of a child cancer survivor was accused of being a “Russian troll” after thanking Eric Trump for his $16.3 million donation to St. Jude’s Hospital. Her nephew, Zachary, was diagnosed with cancer in 2012 when he was four, but after receiving treatment at St. Jude’s Hospital, he is now cancer free.

“Thank you for your commitment to St. Jude. This St. Jude family is eternally grateful,” Sherrie Hopper tweeted at Eric Trump.

“.@StJude is the best cause in the world! It has truly been one of the most important and meaningful missions of my life,” Trump responded.

One Twitter user tweeted at Hopper, saying, “Impressive that the Russian trolls can chime in from Tennessee.”

“Putin hired better programmers. We know bots because they don’t care that reporters were murdered in Washington,” he continued.

Hopper said the online abuse went on for over a week, and eventually addressed the hatred in a video, where she said the anonymous trolls “have no boundaries, no conscience.”

“The hate that has come out is unreal,” she said.

“Now you're going to attack a charity? You're going to attack a St. Jude family? Someone who went through hell for four years?” she continued.

Trump and Hopper appeared on "Fox and Friends" Tuesday morning.

“I can’t even imagine what you go through on a daily basis after seeing what happened to me just for saying thank you,” Hopper said to Trump. “But I don’t regret saying thank you and if I could be there to give you a big hug right now I would because I have Zachary today thanks to people like you.”

"You are an amazing person," Trump told Hopper. "We are forever indebted."

Hopper says her nephew Zachary wants to start a fundraiser of his own for St. Jude.
