“The Old, White, Racist is Being Beaten by a Young, Strong Black Woman”: Mary Trump on Her Uncle’s “Worst Nightmare”

Donald Trump’s “worst nightmare” is coming true, his niece Mary Trump said Monday night. In her newsletter, “The Good In Us,” Mary Trump, an outspoken critic of the former president, discussed how recent polls show her uncle, “the old, white, racist,” being beaten by “a young, strong Black woman.”

Mary Trump elaborated that her uncle isn’t handling this development well. This reality, she added, has contributed to his recent outbursts attacking Black journalists, women, and Georgia officials. Furthermore, he made headlines by congratulating Russian President Vladimir Putin on last week’s prisoner swap.

Initially, Donald Trump believed the election was in his favor when he was running against President Joe Biden. However, with Biden bowing out and endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris, the race has shifted, causing Trump’s frustration, Mary Trump wrote.

Compounding Trump’s issues is the “positive buzz” surrounding Harris, while his own running mate, J.D. Vance, has become a “national punchline.” “No wonder Donald spent the weekend in Georgia throwing a temper tantrum,” Mary Trump remarked.

At a rally in Georgia, Trump targeted officials for not overturning the 2020 election results, but it was his complaints about crowd size that really “underscored how weak and jealous he is,” according to Mary Trump. “He blamed school officials for not letting more people into his event, a lie so transparent that not even he believed it,” she said, accusing her uncle of whining.

“Neither Donald nor his campaign is doing well, and the worse the latter does, the worse the former is going to get,” she added. Mary Trump asserted that her uncle is unprepared for the current political moment. “A disciplined candidate would never engage in weeks of baseless and otherwise racist attacks against an opponent who is smarter, stronger, and infinitely savvier politically than he is,” she said.

“It is foolish to give a seasoned prosecutor—especially one who is two weeks out from giving her acceptance speech to what will likely be the largest audience in convention history—so much ammunition.” As the election draws closer, the dynamics of the race continue to evolve, and according to Mary Trump, the former president is struggling to adapt to the new landscape where his old tactics may no longer suffice.
