Mary Trump says her uncle was just given 17 free days to mock and threaten witnesses

The federal Appeals Court is letting Donald Trump be Donald Trump.

Psychologist Mary Trump, who is Trump's niece, is perplexed by the court granting the GOP frontrunner free reign to humiliate and throw mud at court personnel, attorneys, as well as potential jurors and witnesses.

With the D.C. Circuit court's decision to put a temporary administrative stay until Nov. 20 on a gag order imposed by by District Judge Tanya Chutkan, who is presiding over the 45th president's criminal trial accusing him of subverting the 2020 presidential election, Mary Trump is convinced he will use the time to bash anybody he sees fit.

Essentially, she believes the court gifted Trump a hall pass.

"So that gives Donald another 17 days to mock, insult, and otherwise threaten potential witnesses and jurors," she said on her Substack account. "We know he's going to do that because that's what he does."

The niece observed that it's only when a gag order is in effect has Trump for the most part colored in the lines.

"Generally speaking he stopped doing it when gag orders are in place," she noted. "The hold is standard operating procedure."

However, Mary Trump is suspecting that the soft-handed nature in the courts in dealing with the former president is giving him some leverage and the results might start playing into his hand.

"But given all the other things happening in the other trials — it continues to feel the deck is stack[ed] in his favor and increasingly so," she explained.

She took into consideration how New York Judge Arthur Engoron already fined the president $15,000 for twice breaching a gag order he put on Trump.

She called the amount "nothing" and said her uncle would simply send out a request to raise funds to remit it.

Today, the judge expanded the gag order to also cover his attorneys.
