Mary Trump appeared on MSNBC over the weekend to offer her latest hot take on the January 6 hearings and why she’s fairly confident her crazy uncle Donald is “terrified” right now.
“To say that Donald is terrified is accurate and also an understatement,” Mary said on MSNBC’s The Katie Phang Show over the weekend.
“I think this might be the first time in his entire life that even he can’t deny the walls may indeed be closing in. The amount of evidence that we see coming out of these committee hearings is overwhelming.”

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.
Mary added that the witnesses who have begun coming out of the woodwork to speak with the committee are increasingly important in terms of the access they had to Trump in the days leading up to and immediately following January 6, most notably former White House counsel Pat Cipollone, who met with the panel for over eight hours on Friday.
Cipollone’s testimony will be presented to the public in upcoming hearings, which resume tomorrow. Specific details about what he told the committee have been kept under wraps, but Rep. Zoe Lofgren said Cipollone “did not contradict” the testimony of previous witnesses.
That certainly sounds ominous for the ex-president.

“It would be almost unimaginable at this point if he got out of all of the legal and civil charges against him,” Mary said.
“But again, you know, you said it, for decades now he has always skated, and that’s the only reason I’m not confident. Hopeful, but not entirely confident there will be consequences.”
Speaking to CNN, a House select committee spokesperson described the interview with Cipollone as “productive”, adding that “the Committee received critical testimony on nearly every major topic in its investigation, reinforcing key points regarding Donald Trump‘s misconduct and providing highly relevant new information that will play a central role in its upcoming hearings.”
Per CNN:
The interview [with Cipollone] was recorded on video and could be featured at upcoming hearings, including one on Tuesday that will focus on how the violent mob came together and the role of extremist groups, as well as another hearing — which hasn’t yet been scheduled — on the 187 minutes of Trump’s inaction as rioters stormed the US Capitol.
Trump responded to Cipollone’s cooperation with the Committee in an angry statement on Truth Social, writing: “Why would a future President of the United States want to have candid and important conversations with his White House Counsel if he thought there was even a small chance that this person, essentially acting as a ‘lawyer’ for the Country, may someday be brought before a partisan and openly hostile Committee in Congress.”
Now, some tweets…
It looks like Pat Cipollone threw Trump under the bus. Good.

She’s rarely wrong- and, yes, her uncle was used as a rubber stamp for bad laws, and behavior.

I *love* how Mary calls him “Donald”. Never gets old

I do not believe that man is terrified I don’t think that he has the humanity to experience terror. I believe he thinks he is beyond the touch of justice. He always has been and I believe he thinks he always will be

Jan. 6 Committee on Pat Cipollone’s 8.5 hour interview: “In our interview with Mr. Cipollone, the Committee received critical testimony on nearly every major topic in its investigation … This includes information demonstrating Donald Trump’s supreme dereliction of duty.”

Trump announced today that he is thinking about going to Japan’s Abe’s funeral. Hmmm, an escape plan from US prosecution in the works?

Mary Trump explains why her uncle is so worried about what Pat Cipollone told the 1/6 Committee, “Donald also knows that Pat Cipollone, at this point, has absolutely no reason to lie or to take a bullet for Donald by covering for him.” pic.twitter.com/5GRHR1DDPX

Onto REAL news:
FiveThirtyEight is a very liberal polling outfit founded by a gay man.
FiveThirtyEight Poll (07/11/2022): “Joe Biden Is the Least Popular President in Last 75 Years.”
Poor, Joey.

Interesting, but not surprising, that you are too stupid to understand the importance of Cipollone’s testimony. I thought you had at least an adolescent level of understanding.
I guess not. So instead of a comment on the actual question at hand you demonstrate that you don’t understand the mercurial (look it up…have one of your attendants explain what a dictionary is) nature of polls.
Mack
Den, Mario is. a right wing dimwit who only listens to right wing garbage since his brain can’t handle truth. He should move to Russia so he be with his fellow men.

I’ll take low poll numbers over trying to overthrow the government any day.

Absolutely, he might not have been the best candidate the dems had to offer but he beat a neo-Nazi insurrectionist and traitor…so year, give me Joe, at least he’s not fellating putin for pay.
MISTERJETT
i don’t care if President Biden gets on television and urinates on the flag. anything is better than what we had to suffer through for four years with pgrabber

mary is relentless, smart & mad as hell … the perfect mix to take down a buffoon like her crazy uncle drumpf. with any luck, he’ll lock himself in a bathroom and try to flush himself down the toidy.

Best part is the Cipollone has confirmed everything Hutchinson said according to sources close to the committee. It’s going to be fun to hear the first hand accounts of trump tantrum in the beast.
Mario
ZzBomb: You are a liar and a peddler of fake news. Does your left-wing ideology blind you to the truth? It certainly does!
Cipollone did not back up Hutchinson’s testimony.
On CNN, Congresswoman Zoe Lofgren – a leftist Democrat from northern California – specifically said that Cipollone did NOT back up Hutchinson’s testimony nor did Lofgren expect him to. He wasn’t even asked about it and he never addressed it.
You, ZzBomb, are a liar.

So Mario, what do YOU think happened on 1/6/21? Antifa dressed up as Trump supporters?
Mario
still_onthemark:
What do I think happened in 1/6/21?
A bunch of knuckleheads – at the instigation of covert FBI operatives – demonstrated and acted like goofballs.
Looking and hearing the videotapes (real evidence):
1. Why did the capitol police officers gladly invite the demonstrators into the capitol building?
2. Why did the capitol police officers joke and laugh with the demonstrators?
3. Why didn’t Nancy Pelosi – who’s in charge of the capitol police – prepare for this possible eventuality when she was warned by the chief of the capitol police beforehand?
4. Why were some people charged, but others got away scot-free when they instigated the mess? Were they FBI operatives?
5. How did the Antifa and BLM rioters get away scot-free when they burned and destroyed businesses, police stations, and government buildings during the summer of 2020 while most of the 1/6/21 demonstrators have been held in DC jails since 1/6/21 without being charged with any crimes? Double standard? Yes, indeed!
6. How come Kamala Harris could contribute to GoFundMe accounts to assist the Antifa and BLM rioters while GoFundMe deleted all accounts assisting 1/6/22 demonstrators?
If you REALLY believe in equal justice before the law, you should be concerned too.
After November when Republicans retake control of the House, these things will be fully investigated, perpetrators will be held accountable, and leftists will be seen as the fascists they truly are.
still_onthemark
Wow, I thought Tucker would have updated his list by now.
1., 2. Why did the mob assault the police for HOURS after that? We all saw that on video too.
3. Again, again, again… the Speaker of the House is NOT “in charge” of the Capitol Police.
4. No, they were not FBI operatives.
5. False; hundreds were jailed and faced charges. But you knew that.
6. Ask GoFundMe. Oh I forgot, you guys HATE private companies now if they don’t agree with you.

Btw, there’s a REAL congressional hearing into the REAL Jan. 6 story… right now!

No high ranking republican has ever paid for their crimes in the last 50 years, at least since Nixon (if not longer). I don’t expect that’s ever going to change.

As a former nurse with psych/mental health background, I strongly suggest not insinuating that Mary would use the word “crazy” to describe TFG: she wouldn’t give him the “out” to use an insanity plea, so, please, Queerty, be careful of the wording in these articles, and don’t open that door for him!!!!!
