Donald Trump says wife Melania would be ‘an amazing first lady’

<...>

When will you get Melania out there talking about you?

Pretty soon. She wants to do it. She is a very confident person. You've seen her on The View, and you've seen her on different shows. Larry King. You've seen her being interviewed. She's got a great style, and she would be an amazing first lady with heart.

<...>

She would care very much about women's issues. We're talking about mostly medical issues but women's issues. She was very strong on that with me the other day. Ivanka and Melania said, "You're not getting fairly treated on your feeling toward women." My mother was this incredible woman. I have known incredible women. I have many women executives, frankly, that are better than my men executives. I pay them the same or more.

Does she speak English? If not, Jeb is in trouble. Repubs want English-only in 'Murica.

and that she was some kind of "foreigner"? It was probably Fox News leading the charge, too!

who compliments his wife's brains.

I disapprove, however, of a man who quotes his wife saying HE is being treated unfairly on the subject of women (geez, convenient quote from your pocket sockpuppet) and a man who does the "I respect women; I respected my strong mama!" crap, hoping to bolster his feminist bona fides.

I remember when Tupac used that line after his gang rape conviction.
