Mary Trump is back with another hot take on her Uncle Donald following the FBI raid at Mar-a-Lago, and according to her the former president is in full “panic” mode.
Speaking with MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell, Mary was asked about her uncle’s angry statement professing his innocence and calling the raid “unannounced” and “not necessary or appropriate.”
“This kind of thing couldn’t have happened without his lawyers knowing,” O’Donnell said. “There were plenty of hints.”
Mary agreed, noting that “They’re not really breaking in, they’re just doing their job,” and describing Donald as “panicked.”

She followed up by saying Donald wasn’t entirely lying about being blindsided, but rather that his response shows a disconnect from reality.
“This is just an example, in a very long line of examples, of Donald’s narcissism and sense of entitlement,” she continued. “He may have known it was coming but he could not possibly believe it was coming because it never has.”
“How is your uncle going to sleep tonight?” O’Donnell asked next.
“You know, probably as well as he always sleeps,” Mary, who is a psychologist by profession, answered. “Which is to say, not well. Because, you know, there are so many things dogging him in the last many years. He was in New York today because he needs to sit for a deposition in another case. So it is all coming sort of fast and furious.”
Watch:
Mary Trump has not shied away from offering her thoughts on Donald’s state of mind.
When the January 6 hearings were dominating headlines last month, she said:
“He is addicted to being at the center of attention. I’m sure he’s as riveted by these hearings as we are, but incompletely different ways.”
“For him to feel that the focus is shifting away from him or that he’s losing power will make things even worse because he won’t confront that and process it and deal with it. He will bury it and therefore worsen his situation.”

Executing a legal search warrant is NOT A RAID. Stop using Republican talking points.

I LOVE it when the right wing troll account wrecks one of it’s alternate screenames by being so obvious.

For someone who hates the guy, she seems to know lots of “inner circle” details about him.
Or is she a Christina Crawford?

It’s not surprising at all that she might have some “inner circle” info. I have some homophobic, Trumpanzee cousins who I’ve avoided for many years, but I hear about their antics from an older relative.

I have nothing but the most intense admiration for Mary Trump. Utterly courageous in her refusal to submit to what has to be truly frightening family bullying, and has given herself over to American justice, 100%. I am behind you, Mary!

I wish these articles would have an addendum listing the many state and federal legal cases in which the orange traffic cone is involved. He’s in NYC for a deposition on another case, and I think the list goes on. Pretty sure the list of cases/actions pending against him is substantial.
Btw, I was surprised that Mary noted that Tr*mp is disconnected from reality, not!

…an addendum listing the many state and federal legal cases in which the orange traffic cone is involved
omigod that would be so cool to review. I’m wondering if a bigger magazine (or perhaps the NYT) has compiled a comprehensive list?

I respect Mary’s opinions, but I think she’s wrong about Donald’s sleep habit’s.
He’s a narcissist and doesn’t really process information the way most people do.
His brain has already “neutralized” this bad news as it does with all things that go against his reality.

I’m enjoying watching all of the Republicans who claimed to support Law Enforcement now call for the FBI, Justice Department, etc… to be defunded.
I mean we all know Republicans are lying hypocrites, it’s just fun to keep seeing it over and over.

Don the Con thinks the law is for other people but it’s rapidly catching to his lazy, treasonous, racist, psychopathic @ss!
It also sounds like someone from his inner circle snitched on him. I guess the cult’s loyalty isn’t as thick as he thought!
LOCK HIM UP, LOCK HIM UP!!!

I hope he rots in prison for the rest of his putrid life. He’s a loser and doesn’t want to face it.
