“The United States is in a terrible position because some members of our family, including the President, see illness as an unforgivable weakness. Whether in themselves or in others. ” Mary Trump, the niece of the corona virus infected Donald Trump, has stated this.

Mary Trump, who has long been dissatisfied with her uncle and recently published the revealing book ‘Too much and never enough: how my family created the world’s most dangerous man’, during the program ‘Fresh air’ on the American radio station NPR but look forward to her uncle. “He cannot admit that he is sick because he and some other family members see it as a weakness. Like something unacceptable. That sounds incredibly cruel, but it is. ”
That belief also influenced her grandmother, according to Mary Trump. “She was suffering from osteoporosis, so she needed care and physiotherapy after hospitalization, but my grandfather (Fred Trump, nvdr.) couldn’t bear that. As soon as she showed that she was in pain, he said everything was going great and left the room. My grandfather never admitted to being ill either. Never.”
According to Mary Trump, this “toxic” attitude is due to Norman Vincent Peale, a pastor who was close to the Trump family and who, among other things, ordained Donald Trump’s first marriage. “His ideas spread through our family at such an extreme level that there was no room left for the expression of negative feelings. Feeling sad or sick was not allowed. ”
