Donald Trump’s nephew, Fred Trump III said Tuesday that he plans to vote for Vice-President Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential election.
“I believe in policy over politics and without question, Kamala Harris’ policies are what I get behind, so I will be voting for Kamala Harris,” he said.
“And if I’m asked, I will campaign for her without hesitation,” he added.
In an interview earlier on Tuesday with “Good Morning America,” Trump also criticize his uncle calling him “atomic crazy”.
“Within every family, people know this, families are complicated. Every family has their crazy uncle,” he said. “My uncle Donald is atomic crazy. And he has put his mark on the family history.”
Fred Trump has been making the rounds in the media promoting his new memoir All in the Family: The Trumps and How We Got This Way.
In the book he made several bombshell claims about Former President Trump, including that he uses the n-word when speaking with family members and said Americans with disabilities should “just die” due to “expenses” and “the shape they’re in.”
Fred Trump said his uncle made the comment during a discussion about his son William who was born in 1999 with a rare genetic disorder. Fred explained that he asked Trump to setup a medical fund to help his son and when it ran low on cash he called his uncle who told him “your son doesn’t recognize you. Let him die and move down to Florida.”
“I can’t explain how anybody could say that about another human being, least of all your grand-nephew,” Fred Trump added.
Trump’s communications director Steven Cheung denied the allegations, falsely claiming that all such reports have been “debunked.”
“This is completely fabricated and total fake news of the highest order,” Cheung said in a statement. “It is appalling a lie so blatantly disgusting can be printed in media. Anyone who knows President Trump knows he would never use such language, and false stories like this have been thoroughly debunked.”
“This is nothing more than a cheap shot to sell copies of a book that belongs in the bargain bin of the fiction section,” he added.
