I'm a kind person because it's my nature to be this way. I can say that it absolutely is a strength in being kind. The only problem I have with it is when people mistake my kindness and think that I am just vulnerable to being taken advantage of.
I love how the interviewer LISTENS! She isn’t interested in running through all of her questions, interrupting when Mary’s answers are more thorough; she’s asking questions where the answers matter and she allows Mary her time to speak. I appreciate her approach very much.
I love this woman's honesty and have enjoyed seeing her in interviews and on her media. Hoping Mary is able to see her value and heal and always live well.

One of the most useful things I learned in a career as a psychotherapist is that we all have a need to communicate how we feel to others, and that while people who have the insight and the vocabulary can do this by telling people how we feel, those who can't do that - children and undeveloped adults - communicate their feelings unconsciously, by behaving in ways that make the people around them feel the same way they're feeling - scared, confused, angry, depressed, anxious, etc. I learned to check my own internal responses, ask myself how the interaction was causing me to feel, and then probe to see whether that was how the person in front of me was feeling. Often it was. I learned to shift my attention from the details of the conversation to the process underneath it. Often I could short-circuit mind games by stopping, looking someone in the eye, and asking, "Why did you say/do that? What are you hoping will happen?"
That you can choose kindness, community, democracy, and growth in spite of what you've suffered speaks volumes about your character. Congratulations on who you have decided to become!

I see Trump as a predator and an abuser. Grifter is not enough. America, whether we really want it or not, is in an abusive relationship with this man. That framework helps me understand this truly intolerable moment in our history. Thank you Mary.
Exactly. That’s what fascism is, an abusive relationship with the populace. Peace isn’t possible while they rule because they need constant attention. It looks stable in the outside like an abusive, cult-like family does. It’s all smoke and mirrors. Politically conservative families are built on it. They’re enmeshed so there’s no dissent.

It was also about imperialism that the author witnessed as a policeman in India.
I completely agree. I have been experiencing this "era" with such difficulty and have been witnessing it in close relationships, community, across the country and globally as we've all (those with consciousness, that do understand basic health and wellness, ethics, etc.) have been constantly awed in disturbing ways. It has been relentless, psycho/emotional abuse for our society as "his" diabolical movement and followers have been an extremely toxic and so very destructive. In my opinion, it's been an actual battle of sorts for our nation, to weather the lunacy and extreme, negativity as we stand and battle in order to keep our democracy, our United States..... My goodness, I hope for the best and that a day will come that we can look back on aspects of such a challenging time.....

Huge THANK YOU to you, Mary Trump! You have been a light in the darkness during this time of watching the damage your uncle shows, more and more every day. Rock on and keep on talking and writing! You are loved and you are so needed for our country to know Truth.
@@Ketowski The Democrat platform is more dangerous than some people such as yourself are willing to believe. You're confused about which party platform it is. What's 'wrong' about the 2025 plan?
"The Party seeks power entirely for its own sake. We are not interested in the good of others; we are interested solely in power. Not wealth or luxury or long life or happiness: only power, pure power."
BRAVO MARY! I’m ordering your book as soon as I hit send. You are here for such a time as this. Don’t grow weary! Your voice is being used to heal the people of America! ❤
What a brave, insightful and articulate person Mary is.I feel more grounded in this political chaos we are living in, when I listen to her. Thank you for bringing her on ❤.
Dr. Mary is an inspiration. I may complete that book I've been threatening to finish for years now. I can relate to everything she says. Her courage is contagious.
So well articulated. As a person who also pursued a career in psychology what Mary is sharing is so spot on, this is why we were told by the Lord that we should raise our children in his ways so that when they are older they will not depart from his truth. This, (as she so rightly say) is not only her story, many of us can relate to it in our own circle and even beyond. You look at the characteristics of the person she is speaking about and know she is spot on. Let this be a lesson for each of us. Our children are our future, the legacy we gifted them will be passed on.
Mary Trump…YOU are a godsend. I’m so grateful for you, and so are all my friends. Stay strong, and keep owning that you are held in very high regard! We love you💙
@@kayakMike1000Trump and his megaphone Fox entertainment propaganda did only massive harm. Not one good thing came from his presidency. Not one. Our democracy barely survived and is still fractured
An excellent conversation, thank you both. And thank you, Mary, for your courage in writing and speaking these painful truths. May you find grace and ease in your life.
Mary,in addition to everything else, you are a WayShower for those of us who come from very dark situations and are in the process of learning to let in the Light and transmit the Light. Unspeakable things are things you sing, albeit in alto.
Mary, please never let self-loathing creep in. You are amazing, you've come out fighting after years in a toxic family, and you are now helping your country with your talk shows and books. I wish I had a tenth of your courage and determination. Much love and thanks from Switzerland. ❤❤
I think a lot of people feel real for Mary Trump. During some of the darkest days during Covid and in the midst of a frightening presidency that I never thought possible, I. would be very comforted in seeing Mary on tv. She had already been through the carnage her uncle could create and had survived at the least. I saw her as an anchor somehow and felt hope that she was on our side and gave us a measure of faith that the country would survive. I don’t know if she is personally positioned to have meaningful consciousness of this but I love and thank her anyway. 🇺🇸💙
I see a lot of envy in her. She makes it seem so pat that Don Trump is all this horror that he could fool a sophisticated nation into believing an outrageous lie/life. I dunno.
You are loved & respected. I can't understand how anyone could chose Donnie. Maybe racism, plays a part. KAMALA being a woman, like Hillary also. And pure ignorance & all those willing to lie & cheat for him like 2016. And he has the help of Putin & other dictators.
Whom ever thinks mary is being truthful..we get her side not his. Also there is the truth..side as well...there's one in every family...AND Mary is it in this family...she is just jealous....🎉
What a crazy world! Wars in Israel and Gaza, Ukraine and Russia, and I never in my wildest dreams thought that we would be worried about democracy in the United States of America. Praying for all Americans. I have relatives there. From Great Britain.
Don’t give that hate-filled turd the excuse of a diagnosis. He will only use it to have himself exonerated of his crimes by being declared mentally incapable of standing trial.
It sounds more as though Fred was the lost child. Ironically, scapegoats tend to fare well ---- probably because they are scapegoated precisely because the N-perpetrator can't cope with resistance from the strong.
@@bonumvmalum It sounds plausible. In enmeshed family systems escape isn’t an option. And the role of the scapegoat is to go into the desert to die. These families need a scapegoat. They don’t survive without one. That’s why Donald demonizes his opponents. They fulfill the role of scapegoat.
@bonumvmalum my sister in law was the scapegoat in a family of 7 children. My former husband was the narcissistic golden child, and the rest of them were more or less ignored. My sister in law certainly didn't do well, she went from a toxic home life to a toxic marriage. She died a month ago after years battling cancer. Her life was miserable and I was so saddened by her death.
@@janetblanc7658 I'm sorry to hear about your sister-in-law's tragic troubles. However, an execption does not make the rule. Traumas are not created equal, and family roles can't be reduced to simple categorical boxes. Mental-health experts have found that scapegoats *statistically* fare better than those in other family roles.
@@bonumvmalum the scapegoat and the lost child can be the same child; like you said... roles can't be reduced to simple categorical boxes. Regarding stats from experts? Scapegoats may tend to fare better but roles can't be reduced to simple categorical boxes.
I believe many people went through what Mary describes after Covid. It was a very difficult time for most of us and there still is reminiscence of what isolation does to your mental health. Thanks Mary
There's a lot about Trump's family that reminds me of my own. My father was cruel and chose his second son as the one who would follow him, instead of the first son who was his namesake. First, he damaged my mother with his cruelty and bullying, and then he trained his second son to emulate him, which he did. I walked away from this toxic atmospheric many years ago, and with therapy, I have done a great deal of healing. I'm so grateful for that decision and I view Mary Trump as one of my heroines in life.
Yes. I think a great many people have families very like the Trumps. Many can unfortunately relate to the the tactics and sick personalities of him and those around him. I think seeing this is triggering for traumatized people and perhaps adds an element of childlike helplessness to this mess. At least it does for me. To me Mary is like the one good aunt who was somewhat helpless to really fix anything but I knew she was in the wings, on the right side of things.
That's quite a lot of baggage to deal with. And in a way, I think of us good Americans as the victims in an abusive relationship with Donald Trump and his supporters. The name calling, lying, cruelty and threats displayed on a daily basis is causing PTSD. The only problem is that there's no safe house or shelter we can escape to.

Dr. Mary Trump, we love you. Thank you for your voice in our mad, mad world that's been dominated by your uncle. Your story of PTSD is painful to those of us who know, but you are getting better and in your process, you have become a powerful force for changing this negativity, and changing our energy. We will put this bully in his place together. Peace and love, sweetheart. Kindness is strength. We're moving on. We are succeeding. We will win. Vote. 🧙🏽♂️💙💙💙

I grew up in a narcissistic family. I got out early while my brother & sister were sucked into the tragedy of being unloved but entangled with the narcissist parent. WOW! Was I lucky!!!🦋
She is very Brave and Courageous to write about her Family and especially her Uncle. It is AMAZING that neither he Nor his Children have ATTACKED her. She is "SPILLING" the TRUTH about the TRUMP Family and their is No RESPONSE from them. WOW !!
It is amazing b/c 45's go to is to harass & sue people, or at least threaten them. Yet for Mary, crickets. I wonder what she has hidden away that he doesn't want let loose. He's obviously too terrified of her to even try to go up against her.
First of all, thank you Mary for sharing your story and family to the world. My heart goes out to you. I was also diagnoised with complex PTSD, also steming from childhood abuse. I.have found my way through some counseling and much prayer. You are the only member of your family that I hear talking about this but it has to be tough to see what your uncle has done and yet doing to this country. My hearyfelt prayers for you all. May you continue to find strength through your writing and other ways that you cope. Lastly, I can appreciate your statement about making America a true democracy. Everyone deserves the right to live out there God given right to live in peace and freedom. We must all stand against tyranny and injustice in America no matter where it comes from. Peace and continued blessings. 🙏❤🌷
Thank you Mary , for your brutal honesty in exposing and speaking out against the truth of the danger of a second Trump presidency .I pray more people listen to you and truth, courage and kindness prevail .You have been a beacon of light in these dark times .We suffer the trauma with you and I am in the UK
All the strength, courage and decency that so utterly by-passed her uncle seems to reside within Mary Trump. My respect for and admiration of her is limitless.
Thank you Mary for your insistent clarity in your struggle for Truth and the preservation of Democracy. Your view is unique. Mine is personal and defining. I am In morning for our Country. I’m so old, that iI may not survive to see a better world. You are comforting as the embodiment of survival, My Dear.
I have an abundance of respect for your courage and strength. I am not sure I would have handled your extremely complex situation as bravely as you have. My heart genuinely goes out to you. Your intelligence and caring spirit always comes through. Please stay active...we need your hard-won wisdom, and your integrity.
This interview has given me some insight into Mary Trump. and it's amazing how much she is the opposite of her uncle. and all the struggle she has had to go through. and how sane she is. and how she has spoken out about her uncle to save this Country from this dangerous person. which to me has made her an even better person. and I hope for her being able to do this. it has made the hardships that she has had to experience less painful. and I know that what she has been doing is for the betterment of this Country. and that it has to be a win win for her. thank you very much for caring about this Country Mary Trump.
Thank you so very much Mary Trump. Everytime I see you speak of your family I tense up because you are also describing my family and parts of my responses within coping with my family. When my mother died in 2018 I was finally able to use the word “abuse” in relation to her. You describe her all the time. My family may not have as much wealth as yours, but we are very privileged in many ways- monetarily included- and we are of the first settlers of the US which is something my mother pushed as one of our great elevators. In this interview you describe your grandfather only allowing one member of your family as having his focus. My mother did the exact same thing. And anyone who was not that focus she would drown in disgust. Life with her was awful. Her parents were wonderful people. So loving. Without them I’d never have survived. They showed me love and respect do exist in this world and my dreams of living with those were my safety raft. I worked very very hard to not allow anything for my mother that would give her the license to come after me. However, I finally had enough less than a year before she died. I informed her that money does not make a relationship and returned a large check she’d given me. I also told her I would no longer be the family’s scapegoat. She kicked me out of her house. We spoke a few times after, but she did not want me there because I would give her a peaceful pain free death through hospice. She wanted everyone to suffer. She wanted a bad death so people would give her empathy after death and place family members in challenges against each other. I learned from her estate that she had cut me out of my grandparents’ financial inheritance she received ten years before she died. She never intended to give to me what my grandparents had wanted. There is such a heading that can come from people like her. Like your uncle. All I think now and my first thoughts when I learned of her death is how sad it is she chose to waste this one life we get. No matter anyone’s spiritual beliefs, we only get this life once. It’s ridiculously easier to aim for kindness, love, respect and decency than for what cruelty brings to living. Thank you for all you share. It always helps me so it must help many many more people. I might tense up and get a bit worried about what will come up for me when I see you, but it is always ultimately better than letting it remain festering somewhere deep inside me. Your sharing allows countless many to work on some of those deeper difficult to reach truths within them. Thank you. You have my blessings.
Thanks for the heads up Mary. I know that it has to help talking about about the crazy stuff and I hope that you're ok. You are a very strong lady. Best wishes ❤
Kindness is a strength. Bravery in the face of the adversities we are now all involved in requires courage. Hearing your family experiences and how you struggle to process them, gives me courage and rouses me to face the adversity head on. Thank you Mary and those that give you platforms to express yourself.
Thank you Mary for speaking out about this awful person. Your insight will hopefully prevent this from happening again. You are a credit to our country.
Your contribution is giving US a greater understanding. We need to revisit our history. Empathy kindness add dealing with the truth, with honesty and sincerity. The TOP SIX! Not to mention-😂 Humility.😊
My family is hard enough. It has been hell having that sociopath in the news 24/7 for nine darn years. Let alone how mean and cruel a ton of people have begun to imitate and defend the indefensible lies.
"Kindness is a strength" Cruelty is born of fear, cowardness and ignorance. Thank you, Mary for sharing your truly unique perspective!!
She suffers from TDS.
Exactly
"All cruelty springs from weakness" - Seneca
Never conflate mercy with weakness.
I'm a kind person because it's my nature to be this way. I can say that it absolutely is a strength in being kind. The only problem I have with it is when people mistake my kindness and think that I am just vulnerable to being taken advantage of.

Huge THANK YOU to you, Mary Trump! You have been a light in the darkness during this time of watching the damage your uncle shows, more and more every day. Rock on and keep on talking and writing! You are loved and you are so needed for our country to know Truth.
Outstanding interview. Thank you.
It’s more dangerous than people are willing to believe
Project 2025 spells it out. It’s the blueprint for more toxic organizations just like the Trump family.
You're speaking of the Democrat platform.
@@bonsummers2657 Yeah Trump’s 2025. You’re confused about which party platform it is.
@@Ketowski The Democrat platform is more dangerous than some people such as yourself are willing to believe. You're confused about which party platform it is. What's 'wrong' about the 2025 plan?
The cruelly is the point. Hate is the currency.
"The Party seeks power entirely for its own sake. We are not interested in the good of others; we are interested solely in power. Not wealth or luxury or long life or happiness: only power, pure power."

BRAVO MARY! I’m ordering your book as soon as I hit send. You are here for such a time as this. Don’t grow weary! Your voice is being used to heal the people of America! ❤
Mary is a treasure in so many ways. Thank you for speaking up.❤❤❤
Do you know Mary personally?
What a brave, insightful and articulate person Mary is.I feel more grounded in this political chaos we are living in, when I listen to her.
Thank you for bringing her on ❤.
The country, and me are grateful for your honesty and strength. Gbless you and your family. 🙏🏼👑👼🏼
Dr. Mary is an inspiration. I may complete that book I've been threatening to finish for years now. I can relate to everything she says. Her courage is contagious.
No question in my mind she has been in the dungeon to have such a depth of understanding.
She suffers from TDS.
Great comment, very insightful!
Mary you're a great lady to speak your mind !
So well articulated. As a person who also pursued a career in psychology what Mary is sharing is so spot on, this is why we were told by the Lord that we should raise our children in his ways so that when they are older they will not depart from his truth. This, (as she so rightly say) is not only her story, many of us can relate to it in our own circle and even beyond. You look at the characteristics of the person she is speaking about and know she is spot on. Let this be a lesson for each of us. Our children are our future, the legacy we gifted them will be passed on.
Thank you, Mary. You've become a strong person.
Mary Trump…YOU are a godsend. I’m so grateful for you, and so are all my friends. Stay strong, and keep owning that you are held in very high regard! We love you💙

An excellent conversation, thank you both. And thank you, Mary, for your courage in writing and speaking these painful truths. May you find grace and ease in your life.
Mary,in addition to everything else, you are a WayShower for those of us who come from very dark situations and are in the process of learning to let in the Light and transmit the Light. Unspeakable things are things you sing, albeit in alto.
Thankyou Mary for your brilliance and your passion! Carry on… this country needs you and you are a joy to listen to. 💙👍✌️
Mary, please never let self-loathing creep in. You are amazing, you've come out fighting after years in a toxic family, and you are now helping your country with your talk shows and books. I wish I had a tenth of your courage and determination. Much love and thanks from Switzerland. ❤❤
I think a lot of people feel real for Mary Trump. During some of the darkest days during Covid and in the midst of a frightening presidency that I never thought possible, I. would be very comforted in seeing Mary on tv. She had already been through the carnage her uncle could create and had survived at the least. I saw her as an anchor somehow and felt hope that she was on our side and gave us a measure of faith that the country would survive. I don’t know if she is personally positioned to have meaningful consciousness of this but I love and thank her anyway. 🇺🇸💙
I see a lot of envy in her. She makes it seem so pat that Don Trump is all this horror that he could fool a sophisticated nation into believing an outrageous lie/life. I dunno.
You are loved & respected. I can't understand how anyone could chose Donnie. Maybe racism, plays a part. KAMALA being a woman, like Hillary also. And pure ignorance & all those willing to lie & cheat for him like 2016. And he has the help of Putin & other dictators.
Mary is the one person who gives us a true understanding of this man. Thank you Ma’am. You are doing this country a great service.
Whom ever thinks mary is being truthful..we get her side not his. Also there is the truth..side as well...there's one in every family...AND Mary is it in this family...she is just jealous....🎉
I love Amanpour & Co. The interviews are always so interesting & informative. Thank you to them & thank you to RUclips for making them available! 😄👍
Thank you for your insights and honesty, Mary! You are a wise, compassionate and intelligent woman. Thank you for helping defend our Democracy!
Mary you are helping all of us. You are a beacon shining brightly.
What a crazy world! Wars in Israel and Gaza, Ukraine and Russia, and I never in my wildest dreams thought that we would be worried about democracy in the United States of America. Praying for all Americans. I have relatives there. From Great Britain.
Mary Trump is so inspiring to me. Courage, integrity - in short supply these days. I relate to so many things she says.
The voice of reason
Thank you- great interview!
Mary thank you for your perspective! I appreciate you!
Love you Mary!!!!
I think Trump has ever worsening dementia
Absolutely!
YES..
My dad is a narcissist like Trump and he now has dementia, his NPD is so much more exaggerated now 😏
No doubt about it.
Don’t give that hate-filled turd the excuse of a diagnosis. He will only use it to have himself exonerated of his crimes by being declared mentally incapable of standing trial.
"We have a lot more work to do." Mary Trump gives me hope.

Fred was the scapegoat in a narcissistic family system. Donald is the golden child/also a narcissist
It sounds more as though Fred was the lost child. Ironically, scapegoats tend to fare well ---- probably because they are scapegoated precisely because the N-perpetrator can't cope with resistance from the strong.
@@bonumvmalum It sounds plausible. In enmeshed family systems escape isn’t an option. And the role of the scapegoat is to go into the desert to die.
These families need a scapegoat. They don’t survive without one.
That’s why Donald demonizes his opponents. They fulfill the role of scapegoat.
@bonumvmalum my sister in law was the scapegoat in a family of 7 children. My former husband was the narcissistic golden child, and the rest of them were more or less ignored. My sister in law certainly didn't do well, she went from a toxic home life to a toxic marriage. She died a month ago after years battling cancer. Her life was miserable and I was so saddened by her death.
@@janetblanc7658 I'm sorry to hear about your sister-in-law's tragic troubles. However, an execption does not make the rule. Traumas are not created equal, and family roles can't be reduced to simple categorical boxes. Mental-health experts have found that scapegoats *statistically* fare better than those in other family roles.
@@bonumvmalum the scapegoat and the lost child can be the same child; like you said... roles can't be reduced to simple categorical boxes.
Regarding stats from experts? Scapegoats may tend to fare better but roles can't be reduced to simple categorical boxes.
Thank you for opening up to us.Thanx for your healing support. For hope.
I believe many people went through what Mary describes after Covid. It was a very difficult time for most of us and there still is reminiscence of what isolation does to your mental health. Thanks Mary
There's a lot about Trump's family that reminds me of my own. My father was cruel and chose his second son as the one who would follow him, instead of the first son who was his namesake. First, he damaged my mother with his cruelty and bullying, and then he trained his second son to emulate him, which he did. I walked away from this toxic atmospheric many years ago, and with therapy, I have done a great deal of healing. I'm so grateful for that decision and I view Mary Trump as one of my heroines in life.
Kolber is trumps Jewish maiden last name. Far right zionist not republican American patriot nor Christian
Yes. I think a great many people have families very like the Trumps. Many can unfortunately relate to the the tactics and sick personalities of him and those around him. I think seeing this is triggering for traumatized people and perhaps adds an element of childlike helplessness to this mess. At least it does for me. To me Mary is like the one good aunt who was somewhat helpless to really fix anything but I knew she was in the wings, on the right side of things.
That's quite a lot of baggage to deal with. And in a way, I think of us good Americans as the victims in an abusive relationship with Donald Trump and his supporters. The name calling, lying, cruelty and threats displayed on a daily basis is causing PTSD. The only problem is that there's no safe house or shelter we can escape to.

Dr. Mary Trump, we love you. Thank you for your voice in our mad, mad world that's been dominated by your uncle. Your story of PTSD is painful to those of us who know, but you are getting better and in your process, you have become a powerful force for changing this negativity, and changing our energy. We will put this bully in his place together. Peace and love, sweetheart. Kindness is strength. We're moving on. We are succeeding. We will win. Vote. 🧙🏽♂️💙💙💙
Smart, insightful, helpful. Mary seems to be an antidote to the poison of trumpism.
She suffers from TDS.
I agree. She's very self-aware. My guess is that she's also a great therapist in her role as a psychologist.
@@briananderson8428 She is a very confused woman.
Indeed. In a recent interview, she said she wanted to help us heal. She sees it as her responsibility. I think it's admirable.

You're a Wonderful Person Mary. So sorry you went through such horrible turmoil due to that Creepy uncle of yours.
What an amazing person you are!
Brilliant . Caring . Kind. Humble .
Your grasp about the current condition we are in and what we need to do moving forward is refreshing ! Inspiring! Thank you , Mary .
I'm Canadian. Even I had been traumatized by the Trump era!
I am from Costa Rica and many of us saw him and see him as a bully. It is also impressive how he is ignorant of national and international affairs.
Canadian here also. It is such a sad and traumatic story. This last decade has been hard for all north America
@@rhondalevine5818 For the world.
AMEN to that, it was even worse in close proximity, I'm exhausted and this is round three (H. Clinton, Biden and Harris) with the orange turd! I wish he would pick another country to sow discord like China, Noth Korea, Saudi Arabia or Russia, Russia, Russia!.."To Russia with Love." 🤣🤣🤣
Yeah, Trump Derangement Syndrome is something that all morons eventually get.
I grew up in a narcissistic family. I got out early while my brother & sister were sucked into the tragedy of being unloved but entangled with the narcissist parent. WOW! Was I lucky!!!🦋
Same. But the ones who got trapped inside now despise me for getting away. 🥲

She is very Brave and Courageous to write about her Family and especially her Uncle. It is AMAZING that neither he Nor his Children have ATTACKED her. She is "SPILLING" the TRUTH about the TRUMP Family and their is No RESPONSE from them. WOW !!
Green Mary of Sour Grapes is neither brave nor courageous.
It is amazing b/c 45's go to is to harass & sue people, or at least threaten them. Yet for Mary, crickets. I wonder what she has hidden away that he doesn't want let loose. He's obviously too terrified of her to even try to go up against her.
Lots of others have tried informing us about the pig and his ilk. Noel Casler is well aware of the family dynamics, no lawsuit there either.
First of all, thank you Mary for sharing your story and family to the world. My heart goes out to you. I was also diagnoised with complex PTSD, also steming from childhood abuse. I.have found my way through some counseling and much prayer. You are the only member of your family that I hear talking about this but it has to be tough to see what your uncle has done and yet doing to this country. My hearyfelt prayers for you all. May you continue to find strength through your writing and other ways that you cope. Lastly, I can appreciate your statement about making America a true democracy. Everyone deserves the right to live out there God given right to live in peace and freedom. We must all stand against tyranny and injustice in America no matter where it comes from. Peace and continued blessings. 🙏❤🌷
Yes. A narcissist will pick the family scapegoat, and dismantle them.

So Good! I admire her courage for speaking up about this terrible family and making all of it available to the public. God help us all.
Mary Trump is so smart and cogent, in her comments. I read her first book, and was impressed by her insight and honesty.
Really good interview thank you for asking such thoughtful questions!
All the strength, courage and decency that so utterly by-passed her uncle seems to reside within Mary Trump. My respect for and admiration of her is limitless.

This interview has given me some insight into Mary Trump. and it's amazing how much she is the opposite of her uncle. and all the struggle she has had to go through. and how sane she is. and how she has spoken out about her uncle to save this Country from this dangerous person. which to me has made her an even better person. and I hope for her being able to do this. it has made the hardships that she has had to experience less painful. and I know that what she has been doing is for the betterment of this Country. and that it has to be a win win for her. thank you very much for caring about this Country Mary Trump.
Thank you so very much Mary Trump. Everytime I see you speak of your family I tense up because you are also describing my family and parts of my responses within coping with my family. When my mother died in 2018 I was finally able to use the word “abuse” in relation to her. You describe her all the time. My family may not have as much wealth as yours, but we are very privileged in many ways- monetarily included- and we are of the first settlers of the US which is something my mother pushed as one of our great elevators. In this interview you describe your grandfather only allowing one member of your family as having his focus. My mother did the exact same thing. And anyone who was not that focus she would drown in disgust. Life with her was awful. Her parents were wonderful people. So loving. Without them I’d never have survived. They showed me love and respect do exist in this world and my dreams of living with those were my safety raft. I worked very very hard to not allow anything for my mother that would give her the license to come after me. However, I finally had enough less than a year before she died. I informed her that money does not make a relationship and returned a large check she’d given me. I also told her I would no longer be the family’s scapegoat. She kicked me out of her house. We spoke a few times after, but she did not want me there because I would give her a peaceful pain free death through hospice. She wanted everyone to suffer. She wanted a bad death so people would give her empathy after death and place family members in challenges against each other. I learned from her estate that she had cut me out of my grandparents’ financial inheritance she received ten years before she died. She never intended to give to me what my grandparents had wanted. There is such a heading that can come from people like her. Like your uncle. All I think now and my first thoughts when I learned of her death is how sad it is she chose to waste this one life we get. No matter anyone’s spiritual beliefs, we only get this life once. It’s ridiculously easier to aim for kindness, love, respect and decency than for what cruelty brings to living. Thank you for all you share. It always helps me so it must help many many more people. I might tense up and get a bit worried about what will come up for me when I see you, but it is always ultimately better than letting it remain festering somewhere deep inside me. Your sharing allows countless many to work on some of those deeper difficult to reach truths within them. Thank you. You have my blessings.
Thanks for the heads up Mary. I know that it has to help talking about about the crazy stuff and I hope that you're ok. You are a very strong lady. Best wishes ❤
Kindness is a strength. Bravery in the face of the adversities we are now all involved in requires courage. Hearing your family experiences and how you struggle to process them, gives me courage and rouses me to face the adversity head on. Thank you Mary and those that give you platforms to express yourself.
Some kinds of kindness can also be naive, and lead to nasty weakness to due to lacking due prudence.
If nothing else, we can learn our past is Huge on future. Healing can take place when we break free🎉🎉🎉
We adore you, Ms. Trump‼️🤓✨🎼🎶✌🏻
Thank you Mary for speaking out about this awful person. Your insight will hopefully prevent this from happening again. You are a credit to our country.
