She calls her uncle his fathers monsterthe only child of his who mattered to him[who] would ultimately be rendered unlovable by the very nature of Freds preference for him. In the end, there would be no love for Donald at all, just his agonizing thirsting for it.
After the election, Vladimir Putin, Kim Jong-Un, and Mitch McConnell, all of whom bear more than a passing psychological resemblance to Fred, recognized in a way others should have but did not that Donalds checkered personal history and his unique personality flaws make him extremely vulnerable to manipulation by smarter, more powerful men, Mary writes. His pathologies have rendered him so simple-minded that it takes nothing more than repeating to him the things he says to and about himself dozens of times a dayhes the smartest, the greatest, the bestto get him to do whatever they want.

Growing up, Donald Trump sought to win his imperious fathers approval, lying as a means of self-aggrandizement and seeking to differentiate himself from Fred Jr., whom their father saw as weak. By limiting Donalds access to his own feelings and rendering many of them unacceptable, Fred perverted his sons perception of the world and damaged his ability to live in it, Mary Trump writes, according to an excerpt revealed by The Washington Post. She recalled how Donald Trump would hide his younger brother Roberts toys and threatened to destroy him when he wouldnt stop crying over it.
First Lady Melania Trump also makes an appearance, with Mary writing that after her uncle Robert and his then-wife Blaine had met Melania for the first time, Rob told me that Melania had barely spoken throughout the entire meal.
Maybe her English isnt very good, I said.
No, he scoffed. She knows what shes there for.

Many people who didn't read The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump or Dangerous Charisma will read this book and, hopefully, recognize the dire seriousness of our situation.
She's very courageous.

Sounds like Dadums was a dictator and Donnie wants to be one too. He just wants to be a bigger one to feed his pathology.
