Paraphrasing Mary: "Every lie he told, all the energy he spends lying, is in order to hide who he really is." "The more people confront him with the truth, the more he will get out of control and fight back"

Stating the truth that anyone with a brain in their head already knows.

[-] RunawayFixer@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

It's always worth repeating, especially so for those people without a brain in their heads. Those people rely on others to do the thinking for them, so if reasonable people were to stop confronting them with facts and completely abandon them to their delusions, then shit would get a whole lot worse very fast.

I'm no fan of Cheeto, but who gives a shit what his niece thinks? Especially when it's the same take for a 100th time.

It’s noteworthy that his own family wishes to record publicly contempt for him, for reasons that should be clear to all, but aren’t.

[-] Asafum@feddit.nl 19 points 10 months ago

While I agree people shouldn't be quiet about anything wrong, I don't think anyone in the entire world could break the Trump cult. They won't believe a single thing anyone says if it's a bad thing about Trump. They just become "secret liberals."

Hell, Jesus himself could come down from the sky saying "listen, love thy neighbors, don't worship false idols, and that Trump guy... Woo boy is he the devil incarnate." MAGAmorons would just reject Christianity or call Jesus a liberal and send death threats to God...

They already do ignore everything Jesus had to say about compassion and wealth

Since you're making this claim, what do you think of the whole "barack obama's half brother" dog and pony show the murdock outlets did with him?

The news loves to play up the family drama angle for clicks so I would normally take the opposite view - that family is a lower credibility source in most cases since they also may not see their business dealings (such as trump refusing to pay contractors)

[-] NovaPrime@lemmy.ml 1 points 10 months ago

But this is the 100th time they've put out a variant of this same article with Mary saying the same thing just in a different way. Also, for those who are too busy slobbing his knob, Mary's comments will be dismissed anyway. So all it does, imo, is offer yet another empty circle jerk opportunity for those who already agree with her sentiment without providing any new information or moving the needle in any way. It's lazy and vapid journalism at best and a distraction from his real and serious illegal activites that the Democrats should be hammering him on faily instead.

[-] Zeshade@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

And the last time I saw her being interviewed she didn't seem too bright either.

[-] BassTurd@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

Well, she's a Trump, soooo....

[-] A_Random_Idiot@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago

Wasnt there someone who did the math that said that Trumps such an investment genius that he would have gotten a better rate of return just from the interest of the money, instead of using it on all his "investments"?

[-] lennybird@lemmy.world 10 points 10 months ago

I actually really like Mary Trump from what I've seen. Her father was ostracized from the family essentially in part because of spoiled Donnie. I love that she can strike blow after blow with family knowledge combined with her PhD in Psychology.

[-] reverendsteveii@lemm.ee 9 points 10 months ago

donald trump can get fucked but has Mary Trump done anything to deserve her fame other than shit on him?

[-] mateomaui@reddthat.com 12 points 10 months ago

My understanding is that, unlike Donald, she actually wrote her own book.

Woody Guthrie - Ain't got no home / Old Man Trump https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CbbNH3KTB_I

"This machine kills fascists" Good 'ol Woody...

[-] OldWoodFrame@lemm.ee 4 points 10 months ago

Money you enjoyed wasting, was not wasted. Seems like he enjoys tacky and gaudy things so I wouldn't say he wasted it.

He is a worse businessman than if he had just left his father's money in an index fund, despite being in the scummiest and scammiest businesses, including casinos and a fake university, and benefitting from the wild appreciation of NYC real estate in his lifetime.

But that doesn't mean he wasted his money.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

Does he enjoy the tacky and gaudy things or does he just put them in his buildings so he can brag about how rich he is?

[-] banneryear1868@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Mary Trump is making bank on simply saying Trump is a loser which is hilarious. We all do the same online every day where muh money?!

[-] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago
