Caught on audio: Trump’s sister says he is a liar & can’t be trusted
WASHINGTON, DC — President Donald Trump’s sister said her brother has “no principles,” “you can't trust him” and he has been “lying” throughout his presidency, according to secret audio recordings made by the president's niece and obtained Saturday by The Washington Post.
“Donald‘s out for Donald. Period,” his sister also said on the recordings.
Retired federal appeals court judge Maryanne Trump Barry criticized the president for his “phoniness” and called him “cruel” over his controversial migrant policies where thousands of children were separated from their families and held in detention centers.
“It's the phoniness of it all. It's the phoniness and this cruelty. Donald is cruel,” she can be heard saying in the recordings, according to The Post.
The president's older sister also dismissed Trump's intelligence saying “he doesn't read,” said he did “accomplish (his five bankruptcies) all by himself” and supported claims that the president paid someone to take his SATs to get into college.
The retired judge made the comments to estranged niece Mary Trump, who secretly recorded the conversations with her aunt.
“I'm talking too freely, but you know. The change of stories, the lack of preparation, the lying-- holy shit! But he's appealing to the base," Maryanne Trump Barry, who has never shared these thoughts publicly, told her niece on the recordings.
Mary Trump recently published the New York Times best-selling tell-all book, Too Much and Never Enough: How My Family Created the World’s Most Dangerous Man.
She also supplied The Post with 15 hours of “face-to-face conversations with Barry in 2018 and 2019,” the paper reported. “She provided The Post with previously unreleased transcripts and audio excerpts, which include exchanges that are not in her book.”
Here's the secretly recorded audio from Donald Trump's sister, Maryanne.
