Donald Trump’s niece Mary has warned about her uncle’s politics. She wrote in her newsletter “The Good in Us by Mary L. Trump” that the US president is on a “slippery slope on which he will continue to slide downwards.” If he were to step on the brakes, it would mean that he would have to listen to experts and acknowledge mistakes.
«Donald is exactly who he has always been; “He is incapable of changing and that could finally work to our advantage,” emphasizes Mary Trump regarding her uncle’s poll numbers.
She wrote that the president had “lost the ability to control the narrative.” She explained:
“The strategy of lying, spinning and obfuscating no longer works, and where he previously appeared, at least to a certain group of people, to be strong, powerful and combative, he now appears so weakened that it borders on powerlessness.”
Because of Trump’s policies, the country is “on the verge of something terrible.” The problems had accumulated. “He can pretend they don’t exist, but convincing others that they don’t exist requires more than yelling at journalists or telling people not to trust their own lived experiences,” she wrote.
Mary Trump is the daughter of Trump’s brother Fred Jr., who died in 1981. She has repeatedly appeared in the past as a major critic of her uncle and warned against his election.
