Mary Trump's Book

Trump has always been a petty vindictive man, even taking it out on a sick child. Note that the will was changed while Fred Sr. had dementia:

When Donald Trump’s father, Fred Sr., died in 1999, the roughly $20 million inheritance was divided up among his children and their descendants, “other than my son Fred C. Trump Jr.,” according to the Times.

Donald Trump had helped draft the will. At the time, Freddy Trump’s children sued, claiming Donald Trump and his siblings had used “undue influence” over their grandfather, who had dementia.
Donald retaliated by withdrawing the medical benefits he had promised to his nephew’s infant son, who suffered from seizures that led to cerebral palsy, according to the Times.

“I was angry because they sued,” Trump told the Times. The suit was settled “very amicably,” he added.

That's an eye opener. And stuff I didn't know before.

Found this in Mother Jones.
(Mary did sign a non-disclosure statement in 2001 as part of the settlement of the lawsuit regarding her grandfather’s estate.)

I had wondered how the lawsuit went.


When the New York Times published a bombshell article in October 2018 revealing that Donald Trump and his family had engaged in massive tax fraud to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars, I emailed Mary. She agreed it was a stunning story but didn’t say much else. I suspected she knew more. But I didn’t guess she was deeply involved. In her book, she describes how she had retrieved loads of family tax records from the documents involved in her lawsuit over Fred Trump’s estate and handed them over to the Times reporters, who had come knocking on her door.

No wonder there is a criminal case in NY. Some of that was disclosed with his sales tax scams, sending empty boxes.

I do hope the incoming administration has the guts to prosecute Trump. Unlike Obama quashing any prosecution of Bush lying the American public into war, this time it's corruption and that's a different category.

You can bet Trump will try to pardon himself of all past crimes during his Lame Duck month. He'll probably die before the SCOTUS case is decided.

This article has a few more assertions from the book.

Perhaps the least surprising is that Trump once complimented Mary's boobs. He's said the same (and worse) in public about his daughter, so why wouldn't he say the same in private about his niece?

There's a lot of interesting stuff in there. What a horrible person:
One year, Donald and his first wife, Ivana Trump, gave the young Mary a single gold lamé shoe, its heel filled with hard candy.

“Where had this thing come from?” Mary writes. “Had it been a door prize or a party favour from a luncheon?

“Donald came through the pantry from the kitchen. As he passed me, he asked, ‘What’s that?’

“It’s a present from you.”

Mary Trump also says that in 1977, when she was 12, her Christmas present from Donald and Ivana was a $12 pack of underwear. Her brother got a leather-bound journal, two years out of date. Later, Mary received a Cellophaned gift basket, “an obvious regift” containing olives and a salami but not one evidently removed item, which a cousin said was “probably caviar”.

You'd think his wife (any of them) would have bought the kids some decent gifts despite Trump. Or maybe said wives picked out the gifts.

This is the way of Donald Trump. It isn't enough to ignore you and just not send you a gift. He has to send you something small and of little worth, to remind you that YOU are small and of little worth in his eyes.

Or less.


Ever see this story Charlie Sheen told about Trump?

Good gravy, he's almost as difficult to watch as Trump himself. The enemy of my enemy turns me off just as much as the latter enemy.

Charlie is a major narcissist as well. But he still isn't in Trump's league. Except for that period when he blew up his career.

Remember this?

Winning!

Charlie at least has drugs and alcohol as a reason for his insanity

Oh, I remember. I still thought I could make it through an amusing Trump **** gift anecdote without wanting to smash something. Fortunately, I am able to leave my wants unfulfilled. I really can't afford to be smashing things.

I at one time liked Charlie. (as an actor). As a human being he turned into a sleazeball. But that is what an insane amount of money and celebrity can do to a person.

His dad is a good man....for a Catholic.

It's like leaving a waiter a penny as a tip; it's a statement.

I would have, too. He showed himself to be a dishonest man who would screw over his own father in order to benefit himself.

Comes as no surprise to me. If Trump had been on the Titanic, he would have dressed as a woman, shoved his wife and own children aside, and taken a seat in the last lifeboat.

After boring holes in all the other lifeboats to make his own that much more valuable.

No. He would have been in the first lifeboat, and he would have tried to keep everybody else out.

and his supporters would still be in the Titanic because Trump told them it was just a small leak even though they see the ship sinking with their own eyes.
