Am I the only one who thinks that Mary Trump is a train wreck?
disjointed...sentences very parsed and not in a good way.
I wanted this to be much much better.
Oh, but Rachel is amazing as always.

7. I don't
It seems like her natural manner to be reserved. I guess her job makes her more accustomed to listening. And she's not a TV presenter.

9. She's afraid.
She’s publicly attacking the most powerful person in the world, and she knows he’s a vindictive psychopath.
My instinct is to cut her some slack.

32. Early in the interview, I saw her cut her eyes to her right as if she was watching/listening to someone. It wouldn't be surprising if she has counsel present and has been told to not get too far out over her skies.
its a common reaction when people are lying.

83. Yes she's definitely getting advice from lawyers
... in real time ... while the interview is streaming. Don't kid yourself, Chump is looking for ways to sue her even while this is coming out over the airwaves. Chump will never give up.
Mary Trump is scared as shit and I'm cutting her every break I can.

14. She's an academic, not a performer
and she's probably not used to being in the spotlight.
I see nothing wrong with her lack of "showmanship".
Unlike some other members of her family, Mary has chosen to live largely under the radar. Not much is known about her personal life, other than that the 55-year-old lives with her daughter in New York. Mary holds a master's degree in literature from Columbia University and a doctorate in psychology from Adelphi University, per CNN. According to her biography on the Simon & Schuster website, she's taught courses in trauma, psychopathology, and developmental psychology.So, she's lectured to large classrooms on multiple subjects but she isn't a 'public' speaker?
Trump was a contributor to the book Diagnosis: Schizophrenia, published by Columbia University Press in 2002.[8] She has taught graduate courses in developmental psychology, trauma, and psychopathology.[5] She is the founder and chief executive officer of The Trump Coaching Group, a life coaching company, and has also owned and operated a number of small businesses in the Northeast.[9]She's a life coach... but can't talk...

20. She's just looking
to make up financially for what she feels cheated out of by the rest of the grifter family. A few months before the election is the right time to sell a book.
If she was a really functioning human being, she would have changed her name and moved far, far away from them.
and... none of this came out during the last election... where Mary Trump came out in support of Hillary.

51. Have you been watching? She explained exactly why she decided to write the book, and when. She wouldn't have done it at all if it hadn't been for the New York Times investigation of Trump's finances, for which she supplied some financial records that she had no idea what they contained, because she didn't think anyone would believe her. She doesn't seem to have a financial motive at all.

67. She's a Trump
Raised with greed and avarice as her guiding stars.
If she's such a great person, how come we never heard a peep out of her until this year?

Are you on the right website?

111. I might not agree with his comments, but this should never be an echo chamber.
Some here seem to hate anyone who doesn't go with the current narrative.
It's a DISCUSSION boars. People should speak as they want.

101. Train Wreck? Strong opinion there
I will be forthright in saying I have never liked you, I think my initial assessment is correct.
