Mary Trump, the former president’s niece and a licensed clinical psychologist, has issued startling new claims about her uncle’s mental state. In her latest public commentary, she suggests Donald Trump may be struggling with basic life skills alongside more complex cognitive functions.
“After observing his recent public appearances and erratic behavior patterns, I have growing concerns about his capacity to perform simple daily tasks,” Mary stated during a recent online broadcast. She specifically referenced difficulties with basic motor functions like tying shoes, suggesting these could be early warning signs of more significant cognitive issues.
The psychologist, who has been a vocal critic of her uncle, connected these observations to the Trump family’s history of neurological conditions. “Having witnessed my grandfather’s decline with Alzheimer’s, I recognize certain behavioral patterns that raise red flags,” she explained.
Mary also criticized Trump’s recent business ventures, including a high-priced fragrance line, as inappropriate for someone who may seek public office again. “When you combine potential cognitive concerns with ongoing financial self-dealing, it creates a dangerous situation for our democracy,” she warned.
