In her book, President Trump’s niece describes him as a 'belligerent' youth who hasn't changed since he was a teen. “He says these outrageous things that are hurtful or insulting or wildly inappropriate and people laugh it off.'

] over time, despite my intransigence, made a very good case that I might actually have something that could help concretely, as she put it,"rewrite the financial history of Donald and my family." Before then, I had completely forgotten about the existence of those documents. It had been almost 20 years in the past. I didn't think about it anymore. It had ended very badly for me and there was no reason to revisit it.

On why she believes her trustees, Maryanne, Robert and Donald Trump, weren't looking out for her best interest after her father diedThey had used egregiously misrepresented valuations of properties I had a share in to craft a settlement agreement [in her lawsuit against the Fred Trump Sr. estate] that, as it turns out, was much to my disadvantage. ...

He had every intention of graduating from college and working for his dad, working his way up through the company and taking over someday and perpetuating the empire. That was his plan. It wasn't a burden. It wasn't something he felt was thrust upon him. He actively wanted to do this. It wasn't until he actually started working for my grandfather, however, that he realized that my grandfather wasn't going to give him any real responsibility or respect.

nprfreshair Terry, as an avid Fresh Air listener, I have noticed that in almost every interview you do, you somehow manage to bring up President Trump and cast him in a bad light. I have yet, however, heard you utter the slightest criticism of Vice President Biden. Why is that? ?

Mental health issues for sure

nprfreshair He’s a punk.

if you needed to read a book to see that then you are not paying attention.

If you have a brain, you don’t believe a thing she says.

Why should I believe a woman who publicly trashes her own family. Does she not care about her nieces and nephews, aunts and uncles, brothers and sisters. If she had any class she would save the angst for the family Thanksgiving dinner table.

The fame timer is on 14 1/2 minutes.

I listened to her interview on Fresh Air today and she seemed far more credible and normal than I expected. She didn’t seem vindictive at all; more resigned to the fact that he’s a terrible person and for his entire life, everyone allowed it to grow out of control

He won’t be able to stop the flow of words from people he’s dissed after this.

She is 55. He is 74. He was an adult by the time she was born but go ahead & spend your money

Or maybe Mary Trump was a weakling who couldn’t take a joke, or even understand one. They say 1 out of 3 people doesn’t understand humor. Just guessing she was the dud.

My honest opinion is that President Trump is a nerd who made it big. The first sign; poor social skills. The second sign; high intelligence. His presidency is the worse case of bullying in the history of the US. All while we are asked to accept differences.

He was a kid who never had his ass whooped...certainly needs that.

I’m not laughing

You can tell she's a fraud; she wasn't even born when Trump was a teen.

He was on Letterman in his 30s. An unstable person doesn't reach his heights. DefundNPR

Sounds like a great man... Karens need not apply...

Most families are like that TBH

Like with children or teenagers, every outrageous act is a test of boundaries. Ignore one, the next will push further. If nobody pushes back, either because 'my daddy is rich' or 'I'll ruin your career' the amount of humiliation his followers have to endure only grows.

“He says these outrageous things that are hurtful or insulting or wildly inappropriate and people laugh it off.' LOTS OF MEN TOWARD WOMEN.

Did she remember that from the womb. She can’t speak about his youth because she wasn’t born yet this book is stupid. Also I just published a book about my uncles childhood based off of what I remember. So you can see how crazy it sounds without the name Trump involved.

Let's not forget that Bush's Uncle said he used to eat his bugars in middle school. Sweet baby jesus...the media is worthless

Her timing, she just wants to make money and of course she was on The View.

Q: Is trump a high-functioning sociopath? A: He is a sociopath, just not a high-functioning one...

And he will never change go to his Grave. R I P

The funniest thing is that tens of thousands of people paid money for a book that tells us what we already knew for free. That and NPR is reporting on it. Let's move on beyond the grifting Trump family, shall we?

Sounds like your typical 'muh feelings' and 'orange man bad' narrative. It's getting tiresome.

Trump discards 'patriotic' mask for meeting at Trump hotelPresident Donald Trump on Monday seemed to give mask-wearing his strongest endorsement yet after months of wavering over whether people should don face coverings in public to curtail the spread of COVID-19. Later that day, he was seen at his own hotel not wearing a mask around a group of people. Joy calls this the ‘craziest damn thing in the world today.’ JoyAnnReid Well I have been using not mask.
