In a surprising turn of events, Fred Trump III, nephew of former President Donald Trump, has endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris for the presidency, describing his uncle as “atomic crazy.” This bold statement was made during his appearance on The View, where he promoted his new book, All in the Family: The Trumps and How We Got This Way.
Fred’s endorsement marks a significant deviation from his family’s political stance. “I believe in policy over politics, and without question, Kamala Harris’s policies are what I get behind,” he explained. His commitment to Harris’s campaign is firm, stating, “I will be voting for Kamala Harris and if I’m asked, I will campaign for her without hesitation.”
Fred shared insights into the tumultuous dynamics within the Trump family, emphasizing the complexity and cruelty he has witnessed. “Every family is complicated, every family has their crazy uncle at the Thanksgiving table… Donald’s atomic crazy and I’ve seen first-hand how he’s evolved from crazy to atomic crazy,” he remarked, illustrating the dramatic evolution of his uncle’s behavior.
The nephew’s revelation is not isolated; Fred and his sister Mary have previously criticized Donald Trump. Mary’s 2020 book, Too Much and Never Enough, also delves into the former president’s controversial behavior. Fred’s latest comments add another layer to the ongoing public discourse about the Trump family’s internal conflicts.
Donald Trump, currently vying for a second term in the 2024 presidential race, continues to stir controversy with his focus on the so-called “war on woke.” He has pledged to revoke President Biden’s policies on gender-affirming care and pass a law prohibiting “child sexual mutilation” across all states. In stark contrast, Kamala Harris has a well-documented history of advocating for LGBTQ+ rights, earning her endorsements from celebrities like Charli XCX and George Clooney.
