Mary Trump, the niece of former president Donald Trump, has made some shocking revelations about her uncle, who will be contesting his third election for the United States presidency and second against President Joe Biden, HuffPost reported. 

In an interview with CNN's Christian Amanpour, she said: "He has never evolved beyond the kind of person he was when he was very young, and it’s not at all surprising because he grew up in an authoritarian household."

"It's one of the things that should worry everybody about Donald," she added.

Recently, during an interview, former Australian prime minister Malcolm Turnbull called out Trump for being "creepy" and acting weird while meeting Russian President Vladimir Putin.

He said: "He's like the 12-year-old boy who goes to high school and meets the captain of the football team. 'My hero,'" adding, "It's really creepy."

Amanpour asked Mary what the reason behind Trump being like this was, to which Mary replied that her grandfather Fred Trump was "quite a straight-up sociopath," and Trump wanting to be in his good books "knew what he needed to do to stay on his good side, because he also understood what would happen to him if he didn't."

"So he (Donald Trump) is very comfortable in this milieu, and it is extremely important to him that he gets the benefits of associating with strong men like Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban and Russian President Vladimir Putin, but also that he be on their good side," she said.
