She couldn't get him to sit down and talk to her about it, and he finally gave her some pages he thought she could use. And it was all about the women who wouldn't date him and how they (including Madonna) were fat and ugly.

First of all, for how she was treated by Donald Trump and the other Trump siblings after her father died. Being cheated out of her inheritance. Talk about adding insult to injury. The family was just horrible to her and her brother and her brother's helpless, sick child.

Secondly, just for the fact that she is related to this horrible person. Even though she obviously has nothing in common with him (luckily), just the stigma of being a Trump must be a tough thing to come to terms with.

All her ancestors were pretty much deplorable people, but her father seemed decent and she and her brother seemed to have turned out well enough.
