President Donald Trump has spent years calling his opponents crooked, stupid and criminal. His niece, Mary Trump, says those insults tell you more about him than about them.

Mary Trump is a clinical psychologist and the author of a bestselling book about her family. In her Friday newsletter, she wrote that “every accusation Donald makes is really a confession.”

“When Donald says that somebody is stupid, has a low IQ, or is corrupt, criminal, or traitorous, he is literally talking about himself,” she wrote. “He just isn’t aware of it because acknowledging those shortcomings in himself is unthinkable to him.”...

Mary Trump says her uncle’s recent comments about men’s bodies point to a problem with his brain.

The clinical psychologist and author appeared on her Substack, The Good in Us, in a conversation with SiriusXM host Dean Obeidallah. Obeidallah asked whether President Donald Trump had always commented on men’s looks or whether he had simply lost his filter.

“Oh, I mean, it’s what we call disinhibition, and it is a sign that all is not well with him cognitively speaking,” Mary Trump said....

Mary Trump says her uncle’s push to police the midterm elections is no longer just talk, and she’s urging voters to treat it as an emergency.

“This is a five alarm fire, and it is indeed the most important election of our lifetimes,” the psychologist and author wrote in her Substack newsletter, The Good in Us, under the headline “SCAM: Donald’s Plan to Rig the Midterms.”

Mary Trump argued that for President Donald Trump, the stakes are as much financial as political. “Donald’s family has made billions through its business and cryptocurrency ventures, while wealthy allies and donors have benefited from an administration that makes decisions based on how much money it can make them and their cronies,” she wrote. “That is why hanging onto power matters so much to him.”...

Mary Trump has spent a decade studying her uncle's psychology, but Natalie Harp's relationship with him stands apart from anything she's seen.

The president's niece, a trained clinical psychologist, told host Joanna Coles on Wednesday's episode of "The Daily Beast Podcast" that devoted White House aide Natalie Harp has "the qualities of a stalker" and that Trump has welcomed it.

"Natalie Harp is a different type entirely. There's something seriously wrong with her," Mary Trump said. "I think there's something psychologically wrong with her. She needs help. She has the qualities of a stalker. And it's the only case I've ever seen in which the stalking victim has welcomed being stalked."...

President Donald Trump is set to address the United Nations General Assembly on Tuesday as public support collapses for his handling of foreign policy.

Only 36 percent of Americans believe the U.S. is winning the war, compared with 64 percent who say it is not, according to a CNN poll conducted last week, and White House reporter Alayna Treene noted that only 29 percent of Americans approve of how Trump is handling foreign affairs broadly, versus 71 percent who disapprove.

"These are just abysmal poll numbers when it comes to foreign policy," Treene said, adding that she expects the numbers to loom over the president's remarks even as he tries to use the speech to reshape his image on the world stage....

A conservative editorial board warned voters in one red state that defying President Donald Trump at the ballot box carries a steep price.

Kimberley Strassel, a member of The Wall Street Journal's editorial board, wrote Thursday that Alaska risks losing Trump's favor and possibly facing his retribution if voters oust Sen. Dan Sullivan (R-AK) on November 3.

In her Potomac Watch column, Strassel cast the Senate race between Sullivan and former Democratic Rep. Mary Peltola as a choice between continued federal support and what she called "political and economic suicide." She credited Trump with reversing dozens of Biden-era restrictions on drilling, mining and logging in the state and with pushing a long-stalled natural gas pipeline that Sullivan supporters chanted about at a Tuesday rally in Wasilla....
