I don’t know if anyone watches Mary Trump but she pulls some interesting anecdotes from her time as a childhood.
Trump’s MASSIVE MENTAL DECLINE and family history of ALZHEIMER’S| Mary Trump’s FIRST-HAND experience
How accurate do you think she’s being in videos like the one I cited.
My opinion: I think we can take most of them at face value. I don’t think she’s lying about everything, but I think we have to take things with a pinch of salt. She probably does have some incentive to lie about things or at the very least exaggerate her stories.
But what about all of you?

I mean, it doesn’t take an insider to see Trump’s mental decline. Just watching him now vs 2016 makes it very apparent.
She holds a PhD in clinical psychology, so she’s better than your average witness to his private behavior. Of course I’ve seen enough dysfunction from him in public that I don’t need her to make the case for me.
What should be abundantly clear to anyone who can objectively watch or listen to Trump for five minutes is that the man is a malignant narcissist. If you go down the list of characteristics of malignant narcissism (Inflated Sense of Self-Importance, Lack of Accountability, Lack of Empathy, Paranoia and Suspiciousness, etc.) Trump clearly checks all the boxes. Additionally, as a man in his late 70s, it would not be unlikely that he’s also experiencing mental decline as well.
I know it’s talked about, but I’m often surprised at how little credence is given to his mental health. When you really think about it, this narcissist behavior seems to drive nearly everything Trump does. It’s actually quite frightening.
Personally I tend to ignore Mary Trump related-stories. I just get the feeling that she tells people what they want to hear.
Mary Trump is one of the most direct victims of Donald Trump’s malice and immorality and it’s all personal family issues.
Her motivation to say anything to make attempts to hurt him and the personal nature that can’t be verified makes her an unreliable narrator to say the least. Her saying things people who oppose Trump want to hear doesn’t make her someone I care about.
I haven’t watched any of her videos so I have no idea, but my gut reaction to seeing a relative of a famous person talking about that person is “how are they grifting off this”? That’s just how cynical I am of late stage capitalism at this point though. The need to grift transcends political boundaries, and you can hardly blame them, everyone’s gotta eat somehow.
I kinda don’t care.
We know he’s a massive piece of shit and incompetent as fuck.
We don’t need more evidence of what is blitheringly obvious to everyone.
