After that, I stopped asking him for an interview. ”
A malicious family climate
Mary Trump, a psychologist by trade, also believes that Donald Trump's behavior towards women can be explained by his childhood and the deleterious family climate that reigned in his home.

After the birth of her youngest son, Robert, their mother, also named Mary, had to undergo a hysterectomy as well as an oophorectomy. “During and after her surgeries, the absence of Mary Trump created a void in the lives of her children,” writes the author of the book.
According to the latter, Fred Sr., the father of the current President of the United States, was a "high level sociopath," who found the attachment and love of his children to be a weakness, and who rested. on his eldest daughter, Maryanne Trump, to care for the children. “To cope with his mother's absence and his father's neglect, my uncle began to develop a powerful defense mechanism marked by hostility and indifference towards others,” writes Mary Trump. For her, Donald Trump began to act as if he had no emotional needs, and his behavior turned to "bullying, disrespect and aggression."
Anti-Semitic and misogynistic remarks
In addition, Mary Trump says her family conveyed "misogynistic", anti-LGBTQ and anti-Semitic views. "The dehumanization of people was commonplace at the Trump table, who called women 'big s ***** s" and men "losers", "she says in her book. Mary Trump, who had to hide her homosexuality from her family, had planned to marry her girlfriend in 1999. Her grandfather died a week before the wedding date. When she finds herself at his bedside, surrounded by the whole family, she remembers a homophobic remark her grandmother made about Elton John. And decides not to say anything about his plans.
"I realized that it was better that she not know that I was living with a woman and that we were engaged." She also says she was not surprised by Donald Trump's remarks, from the way he denigrated Hillary Clinton during the 2016 election campaign to the taunts expressed at a disabled reporter for the New York Times. For its part, after the Trump family unsuccessfully tried to prevent its publication, the White House continues to deny the comments published in the book.
