Donald Trump's niece Mary reveals the source of 'all his psychological and emotional problems’
WASHINGTON, DC: President Donald Trump’s niece Mary L Trump has once again spoken about her uncle and asserted that the president’s "problems" stem from his closest family members.
The psychologist, who is one of Trump’s staunchest critics, said that behind the president's "psychological and emotional problems" are his parents.
She revealed that when the Republican leader was a little over two-years-old, his mother Mary Anne MacLeod Trump fell ill and had to undergo treatment, leaving him under his father Fred Trump’s care, who was “a sociopath,” as reported by The Express.
Donald Trump’s problems stem from his troubled childhood
Mary told Times Radio, “Fundamentally, Donald’s problems, his psychological and emotional problems stem from the fact that as a very young child, when he was about two-and-a-half, which is the most crucial developmental period in any young child’s life, his mother was very ill.”
“So, she was psychologically, emotionally and physically absent for about a year, which is devastating. One problem is that during that time, the only person he had as a quote unquote caregiver was his father, who was a sociopath,” she claimed.
The 60-year-old also stated that because of Trump’s mother’s absence in his life and and emotional unavailability because of her health issues, the commander-in-chief “never felt safe, he never felt loved and I think if you start from that kind of deficit and you never find somebody to fill in the gaps or to heal you, then you are in the mercy of anybody who may find you of use.”
Mary Trump slams her grandfather for exploiting ‘Donald’s weaknesses’
“Unfortunately, my grandfather is ultimately the person who did the most damage to Donald, because he exploited Donald’s weaknesses and he exploited the damage that had been done to him,” she added.
Mary also mentioned that because of Fred, Trump became “hardened, he became a bully, he became somebody who convinced himself that he didn’t need anything from anybody else.”
Trump issues new controversial policy
Trump's niece's statement came as the 78-year-old has introduced another controversial policy — halting scheduling of new student visa appointments and planning to begin an “expansion of required social media screening and vetting”, as reported by CBS News.
A cable signed by Secretary of State Marco Rubio read, “Effective immediately, in preparation for an expansion of required social media screening and vetting, consular sections should not add any additional student or exchange visitor (F, M, and J) visa appointment capacity until further guidance is issued septel, which we anticipate in the coming days,” as per Politico.
