Former President Donald Trump’s Niece Mary Trump recently said on a podcast that racism runs in her family.

Her disclosure came as she was being investigated on the Karen Hunter Podcast about how she became “radicalized” despite being raised by her parents in a semi-privileged home and then in the Trump empire.

Mary Trump, psychologist by profession and host of the “Mary Trump Show” said She was raised in Jamaica, Queens while her father grew up in the nearby Jamaica Estates neighborhood. The two communities are “light years apart,” she added.

Jamaica Estates was a 100% white, upper-middle class neighborhood at the time, while actual Jamaica, where she grew up in the ’60s and ’70s, was 70% black and 30% white, Mary Trump said.

Most of the people she met as she commuted to and from school and the people she interacted with in stores were Black, she added.

“I would listen to the racism in my family and then I would have my own experience as a kid growing up in Jamaica,” Mary Trump said.

Donald Trump’s niece said she didn’t know what her family members were talking about and why they were “degrading this whole class of people”. Her comments were so far removed from her experience and it didn’t make sense, she added.

“My parents didn’t have any black friends and practically everyone in my school was white, and it was just this weird cognitive dissonance.”

She noted that she grew up “with this kind of unformed notion” that “racism is just absolute nonsense and anyone who subscribes to it is an idiot at best.”

during one interview to the Washington Post in 2020, Mary Trump said that her experience growing up in her family was “a knee-jerk anti-Semitism, a knee-jerk racism.”

“Growing up, it was kind of normal to hear them use the n-word or anti-Semitic terms,” ​​she told the Washington Post.
