Trump's 'useless children' dragged into tirade about his 'need to win'

Brought on to discuss acting Attorney General Todd Blanche using his DOJ position to boost the fortunes of Donald Trump, the president’s niece lashed out at Trump’s kids who are also benefiting.

Speaking with MS NOW host Ali Velshi, psychologist Mary Trump attempted to explain why Blanche is gaming the system for his boss, particularly by approving a sweetheart deal that blocks the IRS from reviewing tax filings that Trump, his family and his associated businesses made in the past.

As the New York Times reported on Saturday, “…the IRS faces its most profound legal and ethical test yet: a demand to drop any audits of Mr. Trump, his family members or their ‘affiliates’.”

Asked by host Velshi why the president is getting away with such abject corruption, Mary Trump replied, “Because the corrupt, illegitimate supermajority of the Supreme Court made it clear that Donald can never be held accountable as long as he was acting, no matter how criminally in his official capacity.”

“And now, again, the DOJ, which is, let's be clear, Donald Trump's personal defense firm,” she remarked. “And you said earlier, Todd Blanche is his personal attorney, and has just said that Donald and his useless children can do whatever they want with their businesses and with American taxpayer dollars. And there will be no accountability whatsoever.”

“This is the thing,” she later added. “I mean, this fits right into Donald's psychopathologies. He's always needed to convince people, including himself, that he's a winner. Right? So, therefore, he deserves to win and he should be allowed to do whatever it takes in order for him to win, including cheating by rigging a system in his favor.”

"[It’s] much deeper than that, and this is the problem,” she added. “Donald knows that he's not a winner, and he is incapable of winning without cheating. What is mind-blowing is the long line of people who continue to be willing to engage in the most abject sycophancy and corruption in order to help him, and that's why we have to stop seeing him as the main problem. Right? And look at the system, and particularly the Republican Party and the corrupt supermajority in the Supreme Court.”
