Mary Trump Accuses Donald Trump of Bringing 'Poisoned Water' to Ohio [View all]

Mary Trump, political analyst and niece of former President Donald Trump, accused her uncle on Friday of giving "poisoned water" to the residents of East Palestine, Ohio.

Donald Trump made the visit on Tuesday, a few weeks after the rural town was devastated by the crash of a Norfolk Southern train carrying hazardous chemicals. The fallout of the accident exposed the community to dangerous chemicals and raised serious concerns about safety and regulations in the railway industry.

During his visit, in addition to giving speeches and visiting an area McDonald's location, the former president also distributed palettes of bottled water branded with his last name, as he has commonly done with numerous products in the past. This led to speculation that the water was from an old line of Trump-branded water that was discontinued 13 years ago, which would now be potentially toxic to drink given the nature of plastic bottles over time.

Mary Trump, an outspoken critic of her uncle and his political career, echoed these claims during an episode of her podcast series, The Mary Trump Show, while comparing Donald Trump to President Joe Biden.
