After Donald Trump was convicted of 34 felonies in Manhattan on Thursday, his estranged niece has said he should “absolutely” go to jail.

The former president and presumptive 2024 Republican presidential nominee was found guilty of 34 counts of falsifying business records in connection to a hush money payment made to adult film actress Stormy Daniels during his 2016 election campaign. Trump, who pleaded not guilty, and his allies have repeatedly called the case a form of election interference and, following the jury’s verdict, condemned prosecutors and Judge Juan Merchan.

Now Mary Trump—daughter of Fred Trump Jr.—has weighed in on the situation. She is a frequent critic of the former president and has publicly criticized him over everything from his potential second term to his family history.
