Despite being absolutely toxic for the Republican party, under multiple criminal investigations, and, frankly, a terrible human being, Donald Trump is currently the frontrunner in the Republican 2024 presidential primary.
Of course, it helps that he currently only has one other opponent–Nikki Haley–and that she’s widely disliked by, well, everyone–Republicans, Democrats, and The Popcorn Factory alike. But we digress.
But even if Trump manages to clinch his party’s nomination for a third time next year, polling and history both show he wouldn’t fare so well in the general election against a Democratic rival, especially Joe Biden.
On her most recent podcast, the ex-president’s estranged lesbian niece Mary Trump shared her prediction for what will happen should her crazy uncle lose again in 2024.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
“Voter subversion is apparently a new phenomenon and it’s apparently convincing people that the election was stolen from them, that the election results were illegitimate,” she said.
Then she added, cryptically, “I am sure Donald is already telling people that if he loses in 2024, which he will, that it was stolen from them again and he’ll call for another insurrection.”
In a recent interview with The Sydney Herald ahead of her upcoming speaking tour Down Under, Mary spoke more about her crazy uncle and what her family always thought of him, as well as his creepy ability to manipulate people.
“We all thought he was an a**hole,” she said. “We knew him so well, it never occurred to us anybody could possibly be fooled by him.”
“He’s also very good at using other people’s weaknesses against them. He can spot people’s vulnerabilities and either co-opt them or, as we’ve seen time, after time, after time, destroy them. And we can’t discount–I actually hate using this word–but he’s got charisma.”
She also spoke about his real reasons for wanting to run in 2024, and–spoiler alert!–it’s not to “make America great again”.
“I don’t think he ever wanted the job, but he wanted the position,” she said. “Now it’s even more necessary because it makes him a lot of money, which is important to him, and he likes the power.”
“But more than anything else, I think he sees the presidency as the only thing to save him from serious criminal charges and potentially prison–which is probably not a fun way to live.”
Trump is currently the subject of two federal investigations being overseen by special counsel Jack Smith at the DOJ: the first is his alleged mishandling of government records, including classified documents, and the second is his role in the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.

I’m so tired of trump’s failure being stolen. He stole the presidency from Hiliary and no one objected. Stop the nonsense!

“… the ex-president’s estranged lesbian niece”
Whatever possessed you to include Mary Trump’s sexual orientation in an otherwise informative article? How is it even remotely relevant? Would you make reference to Don Jr as “the ex-president’s emotional straight son?” No, you wouldn’t, because it’s just as irrelevant.

Oh pondviewer, there’s very little harm in that additional and very descriptive word that GG threw in there. Some people may not know. For example, are you Gay? Or is that irrelevant.

I think they do it because commenters complain when articles don’t have a “queer” angle.

“Despite being absolutely toxic … under multiple criminal investigations, … a terrible human being, Donald Trump is currently the frontrunner in the Republican 2024 presidential primary.”
Despite? I thought that WHY he’s their candidate!

I’m trying to figure out what was “cryptic” about Dr. Mary Trump’s prediction. You don’t have to be Leo Strauss to understand her statement. If her psychotic, treasonous uncle gets the nomination, runs and loses in 2024, he’s going to call for yet another coup attempt. Did anyone else fail to grasp that? Did the Queerty writer and if so, why?

i’m so tired of hearing about mary trump, congrats you’re one of the “good” trumpers, you want a cookie for being a decent human being? she’s said before that she would love nothing more than to not talk about donald anymore…yet she’s written and published a book talking about him, she went on a book tour promoting her book about him, and every single time i see an interview with her shes talking about him yet again. sure its great that shes calling him out left and right and he deserves nothing less, but can she PLEASE talk about literally anything else for once?

Man….did something crawl up your ass and die? She’s famous because she’s his niece and a psychologist who knows him well. If she talks about her hobbies nobody would give a fk. If you’re tired about hearing her….don’t fking read the article. It’s not rocket science. Well…maybe to you it is.

Notreal…. People in the business exagerate and/or use hyperbole…a lot. Did you just fall off the turnip truck?

There is obviously a HUGE audience for an insider’s perspective on Failure 45 that only a family member can provide.

Bea, we still have his presidential library to look forward to. That should speak volumes.

Trump observed so few of the presidential traditions I cannot imagine he gives a shit about a presidential library. And he generated so little in the way of valuable writing, analysis, memoirs, actual developed and intelligent policy, or important documents of any sort, one wonders what would actually be in a Trump presidential library!
Past presidents have been thoughtful men who understood their position in history and role (even Bush, I suspect). Trump understands little and likely saw his presidency as not too dissimilar to his role on The Apprentice: a way to push his brand.
