I'm outraged. The swamp creature strikes again. What do think he would do if someone said what he said today about Ivanka or Melania?

Mika is a dignified woman from a dignified family. Where did you come from, Trump?

Women are outraged and fed up with this President. Impeachment isn't enough. Should we explore exile?

When Trump goes to kiss Putin's ring at the G20 meeting, maybe he should just return to Russia w/ him & their favorite amb. Sergey Kislyak.

Who knew how prescient she was, knowing her husb would be elected President and this would be happening ...

(561 posts)She can barely speak English and she wanted to see President Obama's birth certificate? What a nerve.

You had the chance today to show your true character, and you did. Everything's fine in your solid gold snowglobe of a world as long as it's sugardonnie throwing all the punches.
I heard you're married to an asshole.

(1,089 posts)I don't know why today of all days, with all the stupid shit Dump has done, pissed me off more than almost any other. I'm not eve na fan of Scarborough and Mika, as IMO they played a part in this dirtbag being elected in the first place.
I guess it's just the utter misogyny on display yet again and its cumulative effect. That and his asshole wife backing this up. She's just as bought and paid for as her shithead husband is by Putin.
I'm having beers tonight. So ashamed of our country and this trash that the world sees as our "leaders."

(24,605 posts)She is probably abused herself, but frankly I find it impossible to feel any compassion for her. She made her bed....
sheshe2
(83,901 posts)Yes, I believe she is abused and no I feel no compassion for one that enables a man to abuse others. Silent abuse is painful and I feel for those victims, yet when they cheer and enable abuse of other women there is a far deeper problem.
brer cat
(24,605 posts)pushed a lot of buttons. Would she have said the same if he had gone on the set and punched Mika or Joe in the face? It's ok because that is just who he is? Of course not. He is a bully and he needs to be condemned when he pulls crap like that. It would have been better for her to say nothing than to excuse him. Of course, the best would have been for her to take the opportunity to actually do something that would be meaningful in the context of cyber bullying, but that is just all talk with her.

(19,567 posts)I know people try and and romanticize her plight, but I believe she knew what she signed onto when she chose him. I don't feel sympathy for her and I always keep a side eye on her actions.

(83,901 posts)That does not excuse her for the enabling of other women to be abused. Some of us know about abuse. She is our first lady and she stands for the abuser.

Lady_Chat
(561 posts)She had the looks and he had the money, it's more a business deal, than a loving relationship like the Obamas had. He likes to show her off and she likes the lifestyle, like a 25 carat diamond ring, the homes, the money and and all it provides. If she ever wanted to leave him, now would be the time..he'd give her whatever she wanted to avoid a scandal. So she's not "stuck."
It's obvious they lead separate lives, they always have. She didn't want to leave NY, and I doubt he even missed her, Ivanka could fill in with the social engagements. But I think between the expense (30 million a month for her to remain in NY, was getting bad press) and all the talk about their marriage being one of convenience, Donald wants to make sure it looks like his wife misses him, and he misses her. It's' embarrassing to have a 1st Lady who doesn't show up, so she had to go to DC.
Until tonight I didn't know she was also a birther. So it should be no surprise that she's defending him. She makes me miss Michelle even more, and our President Obama too.
