"Practically every member of [President] Trump's family will be giving a speech this week" at the
Republican National Convention,
Trevor Noah said on Monday's Daily Show. "But one person who won't be speaking is President Trump's older sister, Maryanne, who's a retired federal judge. In fact, she almost never says anything publicly about her brother at all. But now, we're learning what she's been keeping to herself." Noah played some of the comments from Maryanne Trump Barry, covertly recorded in 2018 and 2019 by Mary Trump, her and the president's nicec. "Come on — are we living in the 12th season of a soap opera now? When in real life does a sister come out of nowhere to start a feud with the main character?" he asked. "You know things are bad for Trump when he's having a hard time wrangling the Trump vote. It's going to be hard to win independents and swing states when you're polling poorly with people you share parents with. And I've gotta say, this made me a fan of Trump's sister — not because she dislikes her brother, but because she's 83 years old and she apparently loves cussing. I just want to go out to dinner with her." He imagined Barry ordering for the table.
The
Late Show created its own, more flattering "secret" recording from another Trump sister, "Donna" Trump. Watch below.
