Mary Trump, President Trump’s niece who just published a tell-all book about her family, says she has heard the president use racist and anti-Semitic slurs.
Mary Trump told The Washington Post in an interview published Thursday that she believes the president is “clearly racist.â€
“It comes easily to him, and he thinks it’s going to score him points with the only people who are continuing to support him,†she said, The Washington Post reported. She said her experience growing up in the Trump family was marked by “a knee-jerk anti-Semitism, a knee-jerk racism.â€
“Growing up, it was sort of normal to hear them use the n-word or use anti-Semitic expressions,†Trump told the Post.
“Homophobia was never an issue because nobody ever talked about gay people, well, until my grandmother called Elton John†a slur, Mary Trump, who is gay, continued.
