Mary Trump: My uncle is 'dissolving before our eyes' and he'd be ruined by a night in jail

Filmmaker and entrepreneur Andy Ostroy began his latest "The Back Room" podcast by mocking Donald Trump's rants in the Manhattan court hallways during the break in his criminal trial.

During his podcast, Ostroy predicted that "I think this man is going to totally lose his f--king mind by the end of this trial" on the grounds that Trump still has "four to six weeks left that he has to sit through it in court and basically be told, 'Shut up and sit down!'"

Co-producer Matty Rosenberg cut in to point out, "The elephant in the room is that he falls asleep and farts all the time."

But it was Dr. Mary Trump, a psychologist and the ex-president's niece, who stepped in to dispel some assumptions about the former presisdent and his risk of jail due to gag order violations.

Prosecutors have 14 examples of Trump's violations of the gag order, which demands he not attack witnesses or members of the jury.

The assumption has been that Trump wants to be thrown in jail for violating the gag order because he'll be able to raise more money for his campaign off of it.

As Manhattan District Attorney prosecutor Chris Conroy explained last week, "We are not yet seeking an incarceratory penalty" on the grounds that "the defendant seems to be angling for that."

Reacting to this last statement, Dr. Trump said she has a hard time wrapping her head around anyone being afraid "of this pathetic, weak, person who can't even keep his eyes own at his own criminal trial."

She called it "demoralizing" to watch the Manhattan District Attorney's office stand before Justice Juan Merchan and claim they were not asking for jail time because "we know that's what Donald Trump is angling for."

"Who cares what he's angling for!?" she exclaimed. "And by the way, you seriously think — yes he's angling for the martyrdom — you seriously think that guy you know 'Mr Hair Product' and bronzer wants to be in a jail cell overnight without any of his products and without his cell phone? Imagine what he's going to look like in the morning!"

Dr. Trump said that just being in court for three hours a day is leading to her uncle "dissolving before our eyes."
