Mary Trump had an 'emotional day' after her uncle was brought 'to his knees' by judgment

Donald Trump on Friday was hit with a massive financial penalty for his fraudulent activity in New York, but the money wasn't the only thing that was on the mind of his niece, Mary Trump.

Mary, who has been critical of her ex-president uncle in the past, wrote about how she felt following Judge Engoron's order that Donald Trump pay hundreds of millions of dollars and refrain from business in the state of New York for three years.

"It’s the end of my grandfather’s legacy," Mary Trump said.

She also said it "has been a long time coming and today is an emotional day."

"It’s taken over half a century, but Donald's ability to commit fraud with impunity has come to an end—at least in New York—and believe me, that matters to him," the former president's relative said Friday. "With this judgment, Engoron finally vindicates what many—from the seminal work of Wayne Barrett, the unrelenting reporting of David Cay Johnston and Tim O’Brien, and the staggering investigative work of Sue Craig and Russ Buettner at The New York Times—have been shouting from the rooftops ever since Donald stepped into the New York City real estate scene in the 1970s: Donald, along with my grandfather, Fred, engaged in deceptive business practices, covered over with brazen lies, for years."

Finally, Mary Trump said the judgment would prove to be "ruinous" for the former president seeking to occupy the White House once again.

"Between today’s ruling and E. Jean Carroll's righteous victory, it's hard for me to overstate just how ruinous this is likely to be—both financially and psychologically—for Donald," Mary Trump added. "These are the kinds of judgments that will bring Donald to his knees because money and the illusion of his success are all that matter to him."
