Donald Trump beat Nikki Haley in South Carolina's GOP primary on Saturday, but it was his victory speech that was the talk of the town.
The former president's speech stood out to many political onlookers at first because of his introduction of Lindsey Graham, a U.S. senator from the state who was relentlessly booed by the crowd of Trump's own supporters. Trump repeatedly tried to get the crowd to quiet down, but they just kept booing. There was no obvious reason for this, other than perhaps that Trump had said Graham was further to the "left" than him on most political issues.
But Trump also drew attention for when he appeared to forget he had another son, Eric, when reading off a list of his kids' names. He listed all of his children and their spouses, but left out Eric and Lara Trump's names.

"First off, my family," Trump says, appearing to read off of a note card at the podium. "Melania, Barron, Don. Jr., Kimberly, Ivanka and Jared, Tiffany and Michael, so supportive. So supportive and we really appreciate it and love them. We have a great family."
Republican accountability group American Bridge 21st Century said forgetting Eric and his wife, Lara Trump, was a sign that Trump is "unwell."
Democratic strategist Jesse Ferguson wrote, "Trump was reading off note cards and still forgot one of his kids."
Social media user @realXanderXjork had this to say:
"Damn Trump….what about Eric and Lara? Are you embarrassed about them or is it your dementia kicking in?"
Political strategist Sarah Reese Jones posted video of the moment, saying, "Donald Trump forgets Eric and Lara Trump when thanking his family in South Carolina."
