Mary Trump shared her theories after a series of incidents involving her uncle and female journalists
In the most recent incident Thursday, the president lashed out at a journalist who asked him about the D.C shooting suspect, asking if she was a “stupid person”.
Just one day before, Mary Trump had addressed her uncle’s previous run-ins with female reporters on her show, Mary Trump Live.
“His misogynistic attacks against reporters in particular are increasing and that means a couple of things,” she said. “It means that he’s increasingly comfortable lodging such attacks,” she continued, before reeling off a list of targeted groups. “There’s no hiding it anymore.”
The president’s niece also theorised that the sharp rebukes he delivers when questioned could be a sign that the pressure is getting to him in his second term.
Mary Trump is a psycholgist who wrote & warned about DT extensively ever since his 1st presidency. She predicted Jan 6: “He won’t go willingly.”
She might be milking it (a little), but she is competent, with a unique insight, and ever since that PBS interview in 2016 (or '17) I respect her.
I listened to the audiobook. It’s always fascinating to learn how people become who they are, it was especially interesting knowing that she’s a professional in the field.
I can’t fault her using it in any way to profit. She’s given us warning, we’re not listening, might as well ride this to the end and make some money doing it. While still warning us of what’s pretty damn obvious now.
