Mary Trump Sounds Alarm on President’s Health, Citing “Disturbing” Behavior
Rumors swirling in Washington’s power circles have taken on new weight after an unusually pointed warning from inside the First Family itself.
In a candid online video, Mary Trump — niece of President Donald Trump and a trained psychologist — openly questioned the Commander-in-Chief’s mental and physical condition, suggesting his recent conduct reflects “a steep decline.”
Mary’s remarks, posted just months into her uncle’s unprecedented second term, arrive amid an already turbulent political climate.
Since returning to the Oval Office, Trump has reignited fierce debate with a crackdown on immigration and sweeping import tariffs branded “Liberation Day” duties. These controversial moves have triggered protests in major U.S. cities and strained ties with key trade partners.
But for Mary, the political battles are secondary to what she sees as troubling signs in the man himself. She cited a string of peculiar incidents — from the President appearing inexplicably on the White House roof to an offhand suggestion about putting a nuclear reactor on the moon — as evidence that his judgment and focus may be faltering.
“We’ve all grown used to him stumbling over words, forgetting names, wandering away mid-event, or inventing facts,” she said in the video. “But lately, it’s looking less like habit and more like he’s truly losing it.”
Physical concerns have also entered the conversation. Recent photographs showed the President with pronounced bruising on his hand and swelling in his legs — conditions the White House attributed to chronic venous insufficiency.
While officials have ignored Mary’s speculation about possible dementia, her status as both a family member and mental health professional has amplified her warning far beyond the usual partisan chatter.
The reaction has split sharply along political lines. Supporters dismiss the remarks as politically motivated, while viral clips of the President seeming disoriented have fueled unease among some conservatives. One political analyst summed it up: “If his own niece is saying this publicly, even his allies may have to stop ignoring it.”
The “nuclear reactor on the moon” remark gained further attention after NASA confirmed plans — initiated before Trump’s term — to deploy a small lunar reactor by 2030. Insiders say the President has also pressed advisers to explore the strategic potential of a permanent military base on the moon, though the Pentagon has not confirmed any such request.
If Trump serves out his second term, he will leave office at 83, making him the oldest president in U.S. history. Although the Constitution prohibits a third term, whispers in Washington suggest he may try to extend his influence through legal maneuvering or by grooming a loyal successor.
