Donald Trump’s niece, Mary Trump, is speaking out again — and this time, she’s very worried about his health. She believes something is seriously wrong, not just physically but mentally, too. Mary, who has often criticized the former president, says his recent behavior is becoming more strange and alarming.
Since returning to the White House at age 79, Trump has made several bold and controversial decisions, like introducing “Liberation Day” tariffs that nearly triggered a trade war and pushing immigration policies that caused riots in Los Angeles. One strange incident involved the government mistakenly labeling thousands of living people as legally dead.
Although Trump has always claimed to be in excellent health, people started asking questions after he was seen with bruises on his hand and swelling in his legs. The White House later said he’s dealing with a condition called chronic venous insufficiency, which affects blood flow in the legs.
But Mary Trump thinks there’s more going on — especially mentally. She posted a video online, saying her uncle is showing signs that he’s mentally slipping. She mentioned how he’s been forgetting names, wandering off during speeches, making up facts, and behaving erratically. One example she gave was when he randomly appeared on the roof of the White House on a Tuesday afternoon. No one, not even the press, could explain what he was doing up there. Mary sarcastically joked that maybe he was looking for his missing health care plan.
In her video, she said, “Every time Donald stumbles, rambles, or lies, his supporters just laugh it off like it’s all part of his charm. But it’s not charming — it’s frightening.” She added that the president’s mental and emotional state seems to be getting worse every day.
To make matters more surreal, Trump recently talked about wanting to put a nuclear reactor on the Moon. Interestingly, this comes as NASA is reportedly speeding up its own real-life plans to build one by 2030, aiming to support future human missions. But Mary believes Trump’s version of this idea sounds reckless and confusing.
She didn’t hold back, saying: “What the actual f\*\*\*. This isn’t normal. This isn’t okay. It’s dangerous. We now have a president who climbs on roofs for no reason and talks about nuclear projects in space like it’s a casual conversation.”
Mary went on to wonder if her uncle might be suffering from some form of dementia — possibly frontotemporal dementia — or maybe just mental decline from old age and poor health. She made it clear she isn’t making a medical diagnosis but, as a psychologist and someone who knows him, she feels something is clearly wrong. “Nobody who’s being honest can say that any of this is normal,” she concluded.
Her comments have reignited debates about Trump’s fitness to lead, especially as bizarre incidents keep piling up.
