President
Donald Trump’s niece has one word of advice for her uncle: “Resign.”
Mary Trump
issued the direct call to her uncle during an interview with ABC’s George
Stephanopoulos that aired Tuesday, her first time speaking out about her new
tell-all book.
“If you're in the Oval Office today, what would you
say to him?” Stephanopoulos asked Trump.
“Resign,” she replied.
Her book,
"Too Much and Never Enough: How My Family Created the World's Most
Dangerous Man," has generated widespread news coverage for its intimate
look into the president’s upbringing and personal life before he came to the
White House. It was released by Simon & Schuster on Tuesday and tops the
Amazon bestseller list.
Mary Trump,
who is the first relative of the president's to open up about the family's
secrets, detailed a visit she made to the White House in April 2017 to see the
president during which she told him, “Don't let them get you down.”
“He already
seemed very strained by the pressures. He had never been in a situation before
where he wasn't entirely protected from criticism or accountability or things
like that, and I just remember thinking, ‘He seems tired,’” Mary Trump said.
When asked
by Stephanopoulos what is the single most important thing the country needs to
know about her uncle, Trump didn’t mince words.
“He's
utterly incapable of leading this country — and it's dangerous to allow him to
do so,” she said.
The snippet
of Mary Trump’s interview, which aired Tuesday night on “World News Tonight
with David Muir,” came after a New York Supreme Court judge ruled Monday that
the president's niece was free to discuss her book after being blocked by a
temporary restraining order. Robert Trump, the president’s brother, argued that
the whole premise of the book violated a confidentiality agreement signed in
2001 to settle a family lawsuit.
