The Real Reason My Uncle Renamed the Kennedy Center: Mary Trump

President Donald Trump put his name on the Kennedy Center because he desperately wants to be loved—something he didn’t feel enough as a child, his niece says.

Mary Trump, a psychologist and the author of Too Much and Never Enough, told the Daily Beast Podcast that her uncle’s renaming of the memorial to John F. Kennedy is an “absolutely obscene” attempt to do the impossible: “fill a black hole.”

“I’m trying to contain my contempt,” Trump, 60, told host Joanna Coles about Trump’s action, which ignores the role Congress must play in officially changing the name of the building.
