Trump threw a fit on Saturday and had a meltdown over the books that are being written about him, specifically Mary Trump’s book.
Trump tweeted:
About the only way a person is able to write a book on me is if they agree that it will contain as much bad “stuff†as possible, much of which is lies. It’s like getting a job with CNN or MSDNC and saying that “President Trump is great.†You have ZERO chance. FAKE NEWS!

..Even whether it’s dumb warmongers like John Bolton, social pretenders like Bob Woodward, who never has anything good to say, or an unstable niece, who was now rightfully shunned, scorned and mocked her entire life, and never even liked by her own very kind & caring grandfather!

What appears to have set Trump off is that Mary Trump has been releasing audio recordings of Trump’s sister Maryanne Trump Barry that are revealing the Trump family secrets and breaking down the mythology has spent his entire adult life creating about himself.
Trump is trying to paint his niece as unstable and kicked out of the family when the reality is that a number of books from people close to the Trumps are coming out revealing that the Trump act is and always was a fraud.
Trump’s real personality is being revealed by people who know him best and are related to him less than two months before a critical presidential election.
The truth is finally being revealed, and Donald Trump can’t put the skeletons back in his closet.
