President Donald Trump’s niece is sending out a warning to the public after she revealed the ‘real reason’ behind the order for the attack on Iran.
Mary Lea Trump has spoken out about the potential long-term effects of the US going to war with Iran.
This comes after Trump announced on Monday (March 2) that he has plans to completely destroy Iran’s nuclear programme along with its missile capabilities and navy.
The president went on to say that he aims to ensure that Iran ‘cannot continue to arm, fund and direct terrorist armies outside of their borders’.

This follows Trump’s statements saying that the US has assumed ‘major combat operations’ against the Middle Eastern nation.
Now, Mary Lea is speaking out to claim that Trump is not targeting Iran because he cares ‘about the future of the Iranian people’, and has said that there is ‘no plan’ to help the country break free from its regime.
Instead, writing in a blog post, she said: “This war is going to cost untold lives and untold billions of dollars. And it’s going to cost us something else as well: whatever is left of our reputation.
“Our allies are already suspicious of us, and we will no longer be able to be perceived as a nation that can be trusted or taken seriously.
“The Middle East is a tinderbox, so there is also the distinct possibility that the situation will spiral completely out of control because the idiot who started it in the first place understands nothing of what is required to contain it.”
She said on Tuesday (March 3) that Americans will not economically benefit from the strikes on Iran, insisting that there was no credible threat against American interests to back up what they're doing.
“On some deep level, though, he clearly recognizes that this could benefit him politically or financially, and that is enough,” she claimed.
The psychologist and author pointed out on her YouTube channel that the president didn’t keep to the promises he made before taking office, such as replacing the Affordable Care Act and ending Russia’s four-year invasion of Ukraine.
She claimed of his true motivations: “For Donald, there is one reason and one reason alone.
“He’s in trouble, and he knows it. This isn’t simply about changing the subject. That, of course, would be bad enough.
“This is to keep himself and the world from knowing what an inept, depraved, compromised fraud he is. This is about his unfathomable desperation to avoid being humiliated.”
