Someone who knows Mary Trump — and has read her forthcoming tell-all book about President Trump — tells Joe Pompeo: “The punch of the book, the real symbolic thrust, is about how Donald is really an outgrowth of this complex empire that Fred Sr. built—a pretty dark, win-at-all-costs environment. If there’s going to be a big takeaway, it’s about that emotional DNA of the family.”
“I’m told Mary has steeled herself for the likely severance of some remaining family ties. Given her uncle’s scorched-earth approach to negative writings about him—he’s currently trying to stop the publication of John Bolton’s upcoming White House memoir—it also seems inevitable that she will incur the wrath of @realDonaldTrump. But my source who knows Mary said she’s prepared for whatever may come.”
Said the source: “She feels very determined. She has a very clear-eyed view of her family and the importance of what she’s witnessed. I think she’s been getting herself ready for this moment for a really long time.”
