WATCH: Mary Trump Has a Theory As to Why Donald Ignored Ivanka’s Pleas on 1/6
For hours during the 1/6 insurrection, Donald Trump resisted multiple requests to do something about it. One of the people begging him to stop the rioters was his daughter Ivanka. And despite her status as his favorite child, Trump still ignored her.
During a recent appearance on Sirus Radio, Mary Trump was asked why her Uncle didn’t listen to her cousin. She told host Dean Obeidallah, “He was getting off on it, and there was no way he was going to stop anything because he was enjoying it too much and he probably wanted it to get worse.”
The psychologist and author continued:
“You know, the only reason people like Ivanka and others were telling him to stop it is because, in their view, it had gotten out of control. Like they really thought that they could control this monster they’d created and were probably hoping for a bloodless coup.”
Mary Trump closed, “He probably thought, one, that it was fun to watch all these people being murderous on his behalf. But two, that that would be the best way for him to stay in power.”
