Trump's Niece Reveals... "Demanded Large Inheritance from Dementia-Stricken Father on the Brink of Bankruptcy" View original image

[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Hye-min] Donald Trump, the President of the United States, was accused by his niece of pressuring his father to change his will after learning about his dementia, in order to inherit a massive fortune.


On the 27th (local time), The Washington Post (WP) raised this suspicion based on a recording of a phone call between Mary Trump, the president’s niece, and Maryanne Trump Barry, the president’s eldest sister and Mary’s aunt.


Mary Trump and Maryanne Trump Barry claim that when President Trump faced bankruptcy in the past, he took advantage of the fact that his father had dementia to secure a large inheritance. However, President Trump has consistently argued in legal disputes with his siblings that their father was "very sharp" at the time and showed no signs of dementia.


According to the report, Trump’s father, who was 85 years old at the time, was in such a deteriorated condition that he could not remember his own birthday and forgot conversations from just 30 minutes earlier. In fact, he was officially diagnosed with dementia in a hospital a few months after changing his will.


In the recording, Maryanne stated, "At the time of the will change, father had dementia," and that their father changed the will at the request of her brother, with the content effectively transferring all real estate to "Donald."



Jud Deer, White House Deputy Press Secretary, denied the allegations, calling them "old news and complete lies," according to WP.
