Trump's Niece Stokes Reactions With 'Not Enough' Comment On Proud Boys Leader's 22-Year Jail Time: Barometer Of 'What Lies Ahead for Donald'

Former Proud Boys Chairman Enrique Tarrio was sentenced on Tuesday to 22 years in jail in relation to the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol Hill riots.

What Happened: Tarrio was charged with seditious conspiracy and leading a failed plot to obstruct the transfer of power, in the U.S. District Court of the District of Columbia, Washington.

Handing down the severest penalty so far in the Capitol riot case, Judge Timothy Kelly said Tarrio was the “ultimate leader of that conspiracy [seditious conspiracy]” and had been “motivated by revolutionary zeal.”

Commenting on the development, Mary Trump, the niece of former President Donald Trump, said in a post on X, “It's not enough.”

Replying to her post, one of her followers said, “It's a good barometer of what lies ahead for Donald [Trump].”

Tarrio’s sentence assumes importance because the DOJ is preparing to put Donald Trump on trial in the same courthouse on charges that he schemed to cling onto power despite his defeat in the 2020 general election.

Why It's Important: Mary Trump, who is a bitter critic of her uncle, had previously called for speedy meting out of justice in the Jan. 6 case, stating that the Department of Justice's delay in charging the former president was “infuriating.“

After the Georgia election subversion case indictment, which required Donald Trump to surrender at the Fulton County jail where he had his mugshot taken, Mary Trump said in the grand scheme of things, the surrender was the "smallest of victories."

“And, for what it’s worth, this was the worst day he has ever lived through—and it’s all downhill for him from there,” she said then.
