Eric Trump joked about buying other countries on Amazon.

(CLO) On December 23, Eric Trump posted a message on social media, joking about the possibility of the US buying territory on the Amazon, after his father, President-elect Donald Trump, announced he would reclaim the Panama Canal and buy Greenland.

The post on X, accompanied by the caption "We're back!", received over 9,000 responses, with some calling it "disrespectful" and "offensive," while others supported it.

In the post, Eric Trump shared a photo featuring a map outlining the Panama Canal, Greenland, and Canada, resembling items in an Amazon shopping cart, along with a simulated image of his father looking at his phone with the Amazon app open.

This post, which has also been shared more than 14,000 times, comes after a similar post on December 21st in which Eric Trump responded to a post by the President-elect about Panama, saying: "The adults are back in power."

Eric Trump's post came after the president-elect made serious comments about owning and controlling Greenland, demanding Panama return the Canal to the US, and declaring Canada could be the next US state. These statements drew strong criticism from international leaders and experts.

The president-elect's first statement on expanding U.S. territory came after he announced tariffs on Mexico, China, and Canada over immigration and the flow of fentanyl. He then suggested that Canada could "become the 51st state" of the United States.

Trump also floated the idea of ​​buying Greenland, an autonomous territory currently part of Denmark and a part of Denmark for 600 years. This idea met with strong opposition from Greenland's leaders earlier this week, who declared, "We are not for sale." At the same time, the president-elect threatened to demand Panama return the Canal if the Central American nation did not reduce the fees it charges to US ships.

Eric Trump's post wasn't met with much enthusiasm, but some suggested it was simply a lighthearted way to welcome Donald Trump's return to the international stage.
