Trump's Nephew Claims Ex-President Shows Signs of Dementia
- Trump's nephew claims ex-president is displaying signs of dementia like his grandfather.
- Fred Trump endorses Kamala Harris for president.
- Allegations of dementia raise concerns about the ex-president's mental health.
In a recent interview, Fred Trump III, the nephew of former President Donald Trump, expressed concerns about his uncle's mental health, suggesting he exhibits signs consistent with a family history of dementia. Fred Trump III pointed to “warning signs” he has observed, including erratic behavior and difficulty adhering to prepared remarks during campaign events. He drew parallels between Donald and other family members who have experienced similar issues, stating, “I know what I saw in my grandfather. I know what I saw in Donald’s older sister, my Aunt Maryanne.” Fred Trump III, who is the son of Donald Trump's late brother, Fred Trump Jr., has become a prominent critic of the former president. His remarks come on the heels of his endorsement of Kamala Harris, a move that surprised many given the family ties. He highlighted the personal challenges faced by his own family, particularly regarding his son William, who has a rare seizure disorder that has led to significant cognitive and physical challenges. In response to Fred's comments, Donald Trump defended his support for his nephew and his family, claiming he has provided substantial assistance, including facilitating meetings with top medical professionals regarding William's condition. Trump expressed disappointment over Fred's criticisms, suggesting that they stem from influence by other family members, particularly Mary Trump, who has also been vocal against him. The ongoing family rift underscores the complex dynamics within the Trump family amidst the political landscape.
