Mary Trump, a clinical psychologist who is Donald Trump's niece, told MSNBC that her uncle has "severe untreated psychiatric disorders." In an interview on Sunday, Mary Trump reflected on her uncle's recent debate with Vice President Kamala Harris. "She inflicted upon him a narcissistic injury so deep he will never recover from it, but I'm actually not being hyperbolic," she explained.

Let’s pick up in Miami-Dade where we left off a couple months ago, when we saw an obvious legislative “flip opportunity” for the hard-pressed Democrats to pick up. Remember, Florida’s severely gerrymandered House has 84 Republicans and just 36 Democrats— a Democratic “Super-Minority”that has engendered Stockholm Syndrome in Tallahassee. HD-113 is a nice blue district in southern Miami-Dade that includes Key Biscayne, Dodge Island, Shenandoah, part of Little Havana and the part of Coconut Grove.

In a speech at the Democratic National Convention last month, she declared that “fundamental freedoms” were at stake in the November election, including “the freedom to breathe clean air and drink clean water and live free from the pollution that fuels the climate crisis.”  A new study suggests Harris might be onto something if she’s trying to convince voters torn between her and former President Donald Trump.
