A REVELATORY PORTRAIT OF DONALD J. TRUMP AND THE TOXIC FAMILY THAT MADE HIM – WRITTEN BY HIS NIECE, MARY L. TRUMP

Mary Trump spent much of her childhood in her grandparents’ large, imposing house in New York with Donald and his four siblings. She describes a nightmare of traumas, destructive relationships and a tragic combination of neglect and abuse. As a first-hand witness and a trained clinical psychologist, Mary explains how specific events and general family patterns created the damaged man who occupied the Oval Office.

Written by the only Trump willing to speak out, Too Much and Never Enough is a fascinating and unnerving analysis on one of the world’s most powerful and dysfunctional families. Mary Trump’s insight and intimate familiarity means she alone can tell the truth on what makes Donald, and the rest of her clan, tick.

Reseñas de la Crítica

‘Mary draws a portrait of a surreal, scarred clan... But the fact that Donald morphed from huckster to celebrity to president makes her account seminal and indispensable. Mary’s clarity, training, discipline and sharp eye help make her a reliable narrator, and she’s a fluid, witty writer to boot. Everything in her book that I’m familiar with is spot on. There is plenty in the book, however, that I wasn’t aware of, and I suspect that’s the reason the president and his siblings have gone to court to try to halt its publication.’ (Timothy L. O'Brien)

'Trump claims to be unique, exceptional, a shining self-creation. This book by his estranged niece demolishes that myth. Mary Trump’s ruthless memoir blames their family for creating him: she sees it as her patriotic mission to “take Donald down”, and she does so by showing how derivative and dependent the ultimate self-made man has always been... In a startling final condemnation, she charges that his “craven need for ‘revenge’” on opponents makes him, in his nonchalance about coronavirus in New York, responsible for what she calls “mass murder”.' (Peter Conrad)

'Mary Trump’s compelling saga of one very unhappy family does more than just provide probing insights into her uncle’s disturbing inner world. It’s also a first-rate primer on the chaotic inner workings of an administration that has shocked the world by failing to take the basic steps required to keep Americans safe during the coronavirus pandemic.'

'The most devastating, most valuable and all-around best Trump book since he started running for president. In the vast Trump literature, this one is something new...[W]hat this book does do is help us understand him, offering the most incisive rendering yet of why he is the way he is.'

'A delicious tell-all that does in fact tell all in a way one longs for a tell-all to do.'

'Dripping with snideness, vibrating with rage, and gleaming with clarity - a deeply satisfying read.'

'Mesmerising beach reading and a memorable opposition research dump... It is salacious, venomous and well-sourced... Yet the narrative remains compelling.'

'[A] deftly written account of cross-generational trauma...Mary Trump brings to this account the insider perspective of a family member, the observational and analytical abilities of a clinical psychologist and the writing talent of a former graduate student in comparative literature.'

'After many, many Trump books, this is an essential one.'

'You can see why President Trump doesn’t want anyone to read this thing. It gives the lie to many of his most cherished myths about himself.'

'Mary L. Trump comes closer than anyone to describing the making of a seemingly heartless person who won his way to the White House...[A]n insightful, well-crafted memoir.'

Essential Reading

Mary Trump cuts through all the static to provide incisive and indispensable insights into Donald’s psychology. Her wit, compassion and her survival despite all the trauma she recounts is a tribute to her strength of character. She is a crucial witness and commentator in current times. Thank you Mary Trump.

Balanced, factual and straight forward

If you thought this was going to be a family catfight it is not. Donalds yeah there's corruption, lawlessness and plain cruelty exposed. Enough to have anybody squirm, but we have all been desensitised.

It is time to take action.

Unfortunately his hard core fanbase will not read this

What a messed up family. The lot of them.

I found this book very insightful. So many things don’t make sense when watching Donald Trump play president. Mary Trump’s explanations helped to start to understand that life like him exists and that he is surrounded by family who are just a variation of like him. Don’t feel sorry for any of them with the exception of Mary and her side of the family. Well done though.

Vielen herzlichen Dank Frau Mary L. Trump

Ihr Buch ist überaus hilfreich darin, das menschliche und politische Versagen Ihres Onkels zu verstehen.

Brilliant.

I am not from the USA but follow the news pretty well. I remembered Trump from his New York days - losing money like it was dog treats. I truly could not believe he was running for President.

One of my friends votes in the Presidential elections. With DeJoy messing up the Post Office I couriered her vote, 130+ dollars but it did not connect to the Postal system at any point. We know it got there.

Now I have read Mary Trump's book and it all makes sense. Too Much and Never Enough describes it all very well. G*d save America if he runs again.
