Donald Trump's son Eric has 'liked' a tweet describing Kamala Harris as being a 'wh*rendous pick' for Joe Biden's running mate.

Lori Hendry, who describes herself as a 'Digital Keyboard Warrior for @realdonaldtrump' and 'purveyor of truth' tweeted the crass commentary on Wednesday evening.

She later deleted it, and he reversed his 'like' so it no longer showed in his feed.

'May have misspelled,' she said, mockingly.

The Trump campaign has been attacking Harris with venom since Biden, 77, announced the 55-year-old California senator was his choice for the vice presidency.  

The Biden campaign accused Trump of 'melting down' in the wake of Harris' addition to the Democratic ticket.

'Donald Trump's presidency is melting down after his failed, divisive, erratic leadership has cost over 160,000 American lives, tens of millions of jobs, and left the United States the hardest-hit country in the world by COVID-19,' campaign spokesman Andrew Bates said in a statement.

'He's only further discrediting himself - and proving that he's dumbfounded after Joe Biden's selection of a strong running mate who he himself said not two weeks ago would be a 'fine choice,'' he added.

On Wednesday, Biden and Harris officially launched their candidacy, appearing together for the first time as running mates in Wilmington, Delaware.

'I have no doubt that I picked the right person to join me as the next vice president of the United States,' Biden said. 

'She's smart, she's tough, she's experienced, she's a proven fighter for the backbone of this country, the middle class and all those who are struggling to get into the middle class.'

He said that Harris and her family were now 'honorary Bidens,' and welcomed her husband Douglas Emhoff to the campaign trail, saying he would be making history, too, as 'America's first second gentleman.'
