Trump, niece of the business tycoon who came up with a ballistic tell-all book of the Trump family, Too Much and Never Enough: How My Family Created the World’s Most Dangerous Man in 2020 shared the anecdote from the time when the retired judge expressed her disdain for her younger brother.
Trump Barry told Mary, a practicing psychologist and academician how he was behaving like a "clown" during his 2016 presidential campaign. She went on to call him out for using his elder brother Fred Trump Jr.'s life experience during the campaigns. According to The New York Times, Mary wrote in her book, "‘He’s using your father’s memory for political purposes,’ Maryanne said, ‘and that’s a sin, especially since Freddy should have been the star of the family,’" describing how Donald's sister was taken aback by his speeches given his antagonism with Fred. The secret audio also resurfaced of the retired judge who called the businessman-turned-politician a man with no principles in life who can't be trusted.

It’s the phoniness and this cruelty. Donald is cruel."
