DONALD Trump’s nephew has written a bombshell book with allegations that the former president showed aggressive and manipulative behavior towards his own family members.
Fred Trump III said his uncle encouraged violent family fights and even told him that some people with disabilities should “just die” — marking just some of the disturbing allegations made against the Republican candidate in the upcoming memoir.

Fred is the youngest son of Donald’s older brother, Fred Trump Jr., who died in 1981 after struggling for years with alcoholism.
Following in the footsteps of his older sister Mary, who published a novel about her estranged uncle in 2020, Fred opened up about the dynamics of the Trump family before Donald’s presidency in his new book All in the Family: The Trumps and How We Got This Way, which will be published next week.
The memoir details how Donald allegedly provoked physical altercations within the family for his own entertainment.
In the book, Fred recalls a ball game between Donald and his nephew David, where Donald threw the ball harder and harder “until he was shooting rockets at his nephew as hard as he could.”

“David definitely wasn’t enjoying it. I don’t think he understood what Donald was trying to do or why he was doing it,” Fred wrote.
“And as the balls kept flying, Donald kept laughing out loud. No one ever enjoyed a game of tag as much as Donald seemed to be enjoying this one.”
Fred said the game continued until a ball knocked David down, causing Donald’s sister Mary to come over and shout at him to stop – but Fred said Donald wasn’t apologetic at all.
“That was Uncle Donald. For him, a win was a win, it was a win whether or not the other person knew the game was starting,” Fred wrote.
“There was nothing that couldn’t be turned into a competition and nothing more gratifying than another victory.
“And for Donald to be the winner, someone had to lose.
Even if it was your nephew.
‘LIKE A DOG’
Fred noted another example of Donald’s supposed interest in violence when he was president and his assistant told him that an ISIS terrorist leader had been killed in an attack led by US Forces.
Donald reportedly bragged about killing the terrorist to his nephew.
““I killed him,” said Donald, according to Fred.
“I killed him like a dog.”
Fred also details in the book how his son William was diagnosed with infantile spasms, a rare seizure disorder, when he was just three months old.
Willam’s diagnosis encouraged Fred and his wife to become lobbyists for people with disabilities, leading them to arrange an Oval Office meeting with Donald in 2020 to advocate for more research and education for the community.
The Trump brothers
Donald Trump was born on June 14, 1946, to Fred Trump and Mary Anne MacLeod Trump.
The former president, the second youngest of five, has two brothers and three sisters.
Donald’s older sister, Maryanne, who served as a senior federal judge on the Third Circuit Court of Appeals, has a son, David William Desmond.
The second oldest brother was Fred Trump Jr., who died in 1981.
Fred had three children, but the youngest died after a battle with cerebral palsy.
His two surviving children, Fred III and Mary, have written books about the Trump family.
Trump’s older sister, Elizabeth Trump Grau, is married, has no children and lives in Florida.
Born in 1948, Robert Trump was the president’s only younger brother.
He died in August 2020 at age 71.
However, Fred reported being shocked by what Donald took away from the conversation.
“I thought he was moved by what (a) doctor and advocates at the meeting had just shared about his journey with his patients and his own families. But I was wrong,” wrote Fred.
“Those people,” Fred claimed Donald said before stopping and continuing his sentence.
“The situation they’re in, all the expenses, maybe these kind of people should just die.”
Fred said he and his wife relied on family money to help with William’s medical bills – but discovered they were cut out of Fred Trump’s will, along with Mary, when he died in 1999.
Fred and Mary sued, claiming that “Donald and two of his siblings, Maryanne and Robert, unduly pressured their frail, elderly father, who was already in profound mental decline, to exclude us.”
In other shocking allegations, Fred claimed Donald manipulated Fred Sr. into disinheriting his two grandchildren as he suffered from dementia.
“As we discovered in shocking detail as the case progressed, Donald did this with cunning and persistence,” Fred wrote.
“He methodically manipulated his vulnerable father, exploiting some long-held prejudices and deep-seated disappointments in our family history, most of it involving my late father.”
Donald’s team did not respond when asked about the claims in his nephew’s upcoming book.
The book is scheduled to be released on July 30th.
IN MOTION
Meanwhile, Donald has been busy on the campaign trail.
The former president survived an assassination attempt at his July 13 rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, that left one attendee and the shooter dead and two seriously injured.
A few days later, with a bandage on his ear, he traveled to the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, where he accepted the party’s nomination.
Donald resumed campaigning in the following days, most recently holding rallies in Detroit, Michigan, and Charlotte, North Carolina, earlier in the week.
He also met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the Mar-a-Lago Club in Palm Beach, Florida, in an attempt to mend the relationship after years of division.
