* THE INTERNATIONAL AND SUNDAY TIMES NUMBER ONE BESTSELLER * 'Even in the darkest of Dickens novels, no family comes across quite as mendacious, grasping and avaricious as the Trumps' Financial Times A REVELATORY PORTRAIT OF DONALD J. TRUMP AND THE TOXIC FAMILY THAT MADE HIM - WRITTEN BY HIS NIECE, MARY L. TRUMP Mary Trump spent much of her childhood in her grandparents' large, imposing house in New York with Donald and his four siblings. She describes a nightmare of traumas, destructive relationships and a tragic combination of neglect and abuse. As a first-hand witness and a trained clinical psychologist, Mary explains how specific events and general family patterns created the damaged man who occupied the Oval Office. Written by the only Trump willing to speak out, Too Much and Never Enough is a fascinating and unnerving analysis on one of the world's most powerful and dysfunctional families. Mary Trump's insight and intimate familiarity means she alone can tell the truth on what makes Donald, and the rest of her clan, tick.

... we certainly do now. Mary Trump bravely tells us the story (likely somewhat sanitized version) of her dysfunctional family. Many of us come from family backgrounds that challenged us, so this is one of those. However, this particularly toxic mix brought us the person we've somehow managed to survive in the White House for 4 very long years. She fills in the blanks... what we suspected is true.
If she were out for 'vengeance' or simply wanted to be nasty, there's certainly much more she could've told us. It's pretty straight forward, matter-of-fact.
Every time I hear someone in the media, or anywhere else, wondering why he doesn't do this or say that, respect the rules, the norms, the Office, our democracy, or anything else, as if they're somehow expecting him to transcend the chaos and insanity he not only thrives in... he deliberately creates... I know that they obviously haven't read Mary Trump's book. It's all right there. No one has to wonder or expect anything different. Ever. WYSIWYG. Thanks to Mary Trump!!

Not what you are expecting
The Trump family is NOT your average family. They are now and always have been dysfunctional. This book is an explanation of how this all started. The five Trump children learned at home, how to navigate the world. The problem is, it wasn't a "normal" way of handling it. Fred Trump used the government and government programs to build his fortune. His skewed way of living and learning was passed down to his children. This book answers your questions about the trump in the White House.
I applaud Mary L. Trump for writing this book. She did a wonderful job of explaining where this family found it's way of doing things. I also applaud Ms. Trump and her brother for their tenacity despite the blood in their veins and the last name they were given. Well written and organized, this book just builds on itself like building blocks making it easy to see what went wrong and when. If you are looking for a sleazy attempt to discredit donald trump, look elsewhere. This is first of all a book about the entire Trump family. Second, I'm sure it was cathartic for Ms. Trump to write. You can't go wrong with this book and I hope Ms. Trump will write another book, on any topic, soon.
I found only one issue. I would like to have seen more about "where are they now" for the three remaining Trumps.
I gave this one 5 cheers out of 5 because Ms. Trump could have taken the sleazy road but she held true to her personal moral compass. copy of book provided by author and I voluntarily reviewed it.
