Donald Trump’s nephew is releasing a new tell-all memoir that’s chock-full of some of the scandal-plagued and felony-convicted former president’s worst secrets.
Already, we’ve seen revelations from Fred Trump III that left our skin truly crawling — ranging from his uncle’s relentless use of the N-word when he found one of his vehicles had been vandalized to Donald’s disgustingly flippant suggestion that Fred should simply let his disabled son “just die” so he could “move to Florida” when Fred approached his uncle for financial help surrounding his son’s expensive medical care.
Now, Fred is exposing a deeply disturbing angry outburst Donald Trump allegedly had on his personal private jet, as well as his wife Melania’s truly unsettling reaction to her husband’s temper.
In the new tell-all, All in the Family: The Trumps and How We Got to Be This Way, Fred recalls a trip he took with his uncle to Palm Beach, aboard Donald’s private plane.

Fred writes that, at the time, he considered himself pretty close to his Uncle Donald and recalled a 2012 trip he took with the then-New York real estate mogul and his wife Melania Mar-a-Lago “before reporters started calling the plane Trump Force One.” Fred describes his uncle’s private jet as a “stunning” custom Boeing 575 with “Italian leather seats embroidered with the Trump Family crest,” among a variety of high-ticket luxuries.
“stunning” custom Boeing 575 with “Italian leather seats embroidered with the Trump Family crest,” Fred III pens.
He goes on to write that he had been drinking a bottle of Coca-Cola, just before the plane took off and recalled leaving the bottle “empty in a cup holder next to my seat” as he made his way up to the cockpit to ride out the trip up front. However, he then heard his uncle scream, “Fred! F**k!” just as the plane was taking off.
“I didn’t realize that as we were accelerating, the coke went sliding out of the cup holder and tumbling onto one of the leather seats, spilling the last few drops. I swear, it was just a few drops,” he said. “‘That’s a hundred thousand dollars worth of damage,’ Donald roared.'”
Donald’s inappropriate outburst is bad enough in its own right, but what was even more unsettling, was the way Fred described Melania’s reaction.
“Melania didn’t say anything,” Fred recalled. “She was just taking it all in. But Donald was seething mad.”
The younger Trump goes on to write that he apologized repeatedly and profusely, and quickly helped clean up the mess. Within just a couple of minutes, his uncle came and patted him on the shoulder, “realizing, I guess, that maybe he’d overreacted a bit.”
“I’d heard him dress down people, including his brother Robert, but I’d never been on the receiving end of his outrage, unless you count the day he and Rob had threatened to send me to military school,” Fred wrote. “I can’t say I enjoyed it too much.”
