Mary Trump💕 bringing those receipts. Girl, keep this up. This is a piece everyone needs to see. The USA is now headed for the same fate as BOTH the Trump Plaza and the Taj Mahal—a complete shithole that everyone else is responsible for cleaning up while the terror toddler avoids responsibility.
One of the biggest reasons that your uncle didn't get the support of New York during his campaigns for office was that over several decades, we saw almost daily the things you mentioned. We knew he wasn't the successful businessman that was portrayed in the tv show "The Apprentice". I'm pretty sure that almost all of MAGA never heard of him until they saw that reality show whose goal was to make him look like a successful businessman.
I’ve lived most of my life in NYC and have seen exactly what you describe. In a city of three-card monte and Canal Street knockoffs, we have well-developed BS detectors.
He is a pure-and-simple con artist: As Mary said, he somehow has convinced people that his name matters enough to be licensed. And he knows how to leave other people holding the bag.
I've read that he still owes people money from his first campaign. He loves acquiring money and hates to part with it. He's still appealing the court's decision to pay E. Jean Carroll almost $90 million. When he's involved in a suit, he hopes the person suing him runs out of money and has to drop the case.
"Your readers are not only amazed and grateful that you survived the family you were born into, but that you are a moral and decent human being who is dedicating a significant part of your life to the truth of who this man really is."
This bears repeating. And I'm sure that dedicating a significant part of her life to the truth of DJT is not without emotional cost. We are indeed grateful!
Ah, Mary - your uncle, bless his pointed orange head, is one of the most highly placed psychopaths in human history. I just wish he would go to New Jersey to reunite with Ivana - soon!
Let's not forget this one. "The Apprentice and the fame it generated largely rescued Donald Trump from severe financial ruin. The hit reality television show served as a $427 million lifeline, transforming his public image from a struggling real estate developer into an iconic, savvy business mogul." Mark Burnett owes the world an apology.
Mary - thank you for this clear and concise description of the bull-hockey that is your uncle. Thank God you were spared the defective genetics and turned out to be a real human with a functioning brain. Growing up in New Jersey and attending college in NYC in the early 1970's, I knew people and families he destroyed with his cruel business ineptitude as he always left everyone else suffering while he rode off taking absolutely NO RESPONSIBILITY for the devastation he'd created for others.
If there is one thing to draw from Donald Trump's career as a businessman it is that there are many things terribly wrong with US business law and what is referred to, absurdly in my view, as the US justice system. In his career as US President we can add the US political system and the Constitution.
He wouldn't know a deal if it ran up to him with a big sign saying "I'm a deal." He has always made my skin crawl and that was before he decided to play in politics. Did not watch his show, did not read his book, the ideal day for me would be not seeing his face in any media or his name in print for one solid day. Looking forward to the day that his name is removed from everything he touched.
In reading your first sentence, I sorta laughed at your use of the word 'morbid', but then quickly realized that it is an appropriate word to describe both Donald's activities and dysfunctional marriages. Thanks.

The Art of the Devil 😈
The Shart of the Deal 💩
More like “The Art of the Steal”. Wake up MAGAts. Thanks to you the US has been screwed by DJT.
Your first book should have been required reading for every American before they voted in 2016.
Americans “reading any book.” Beyond laughable these days. Sucks

Nothing this sociopath brags about is true. And his constant, incredibly tedious use of hyperbole?
The greatest the world has ever seen. The worst. His taste? Exercising undeserved kindness would
describe every single vanity project as vulgar. Grotesque is a more accurate description. He
does hold the world's record for grudge holding and revenge. And his temper tantrums veer
from using petulant childish vocabulary to screaming obscenities and threatening
obliteration. Don't even get me started on his racism, his misogyny, his homophobia,
his hatred of nature or decency. And his health? A barely walking picture of moral rot.
Obviously, I could go on and on. This was a bit cathartic. As always, Mary, thank you for
your important work. Your readers are not only amazed and grateful that you survived
the family you were born into, but that you are a moral and decent human being who
is dedicating a significant part of your life to the truth of who this man really is.

Spot on and a brilliant summary! It's all so infuriating, but helpful to have all this info in one post. Thanks, Mary. Keep up the great work!
For all those who wanted him to run the country like he ran his businesses…well, he is.

Exactly Joyce .
Your spot-on insider analysis should herald mainstream media headlines EVERY SINGLE NEWS CYCLE. Thank you for your courage in speaking up.
This is all just too morbid.
Makes my 53year-marriage dysfunctional look like paradise.
But we must choose our battles and preserve our health and sense of humor.
And I for one don't want to go down with the ship!
Substack is a safe haven and let's continue to support it!
