US President Donald Trump's niece has said that one personality trait in her uncle's character could be disastrous for the rest of the world.
Mary Trump is a psychologist and author and one of her uncle's biggest critics. She is the daughter of Fred Trump Jr. who is Trump's late older brother.
Speaking on her YouTube channel, Mary Trump Media, the president's niece spoke about her uncle's personality and how it could spell trouble for the rest of the world.
"Nobody's stopping him. But, what he's doing is what weak people do. It's also what Donald has always done. He pushes the envelope to see what he can get away with," she said.
"When nobody stops him, he pushes the envelope further and gets away with more. When somebody finally does stop him, he doesn't course correct like a mature human being. He doesn't come up with a different strategy."
Mary continued, explaining that Trump's tendency to 'double down' is extremely 'dangerous'.
"No, he doubles down. He quadruples down. It's extremely dangerous behaviour, especially when we're talking about somebody who has the power to bring this world to the brink of economic chaos and a war nobody but him wants," she added.
"But it's a pattern we've seen again and again throughout his life and throughout his political career. The person who initially stands up to him eventually backs down. That gives him more room, more power, more oxygen."
Mary also claimed that when somebody backs down from Trump, it 'emboldens' him further. She added: "To be fair, though, those moments are rare. Rarely has somebody stood up and said no in a way that sticks. But things may finally be shifting."

Most recently, the Trump administration has put together a 15-point plan to try and end the war in the Middle East.
According to reports, it begins by demanding that Iran 'must dismantle existing nuclear capabilities' and 'must commit never to pursue nuclear weapons'.
The BBC report that Pakistani officials have said the plan covers sanctions relief; civilian nuclear co-operation; a rollback of Iran's nuclear programme; monitoring by the International Atomic Energy Agency as well as missile limits and access through the Strait of Hormuz.
Iran’s state broadcaster, Press TV, has claimed that Iran has rejected the proposal and outlined five conditions. These are:
- A complete halt to 'aggression and assassinations' by the enemy
- The establishment of concrete mechanisms to ensure that the war is not reimposed on the Islamic Republic
- Guaranteed and clearly defined payment of war damages and reparations
- The conclusion of the war across all fronts and for all resistance groups involved throughout the region
- International recognition and guarantees regarding Iran's sovereign right to exercise authority over the Strait of Hormuz
