People come up to Eric Trump with tears in their eyes because they miss his father, former President Donald Trump, in the Oval Office.

That's according to Eric Trump talking to Sean Hannity on Fox News Tuesday - right before news broke the New York Attorney General announced it was opening a criminal investigation into the Trump Organization.

"I can tell you, more people have come up to me on the street in the last week and given me hugs saying, 'We miss him so much' - I mean, literally sometimes, Sean, with tears in their eyes - 'We miss the man so much,'" he said as reported in a Yahoo story.

It came up during discussion of the Biden administration.

“We have informed the Trump Organization that our investigation into the company is no longer purely civil in nature," Fabien Levy, a spokesperson for Attorney General Letitia James, said in a statement, in an AP story.
