Secretly recorded tapes show Melania Trump's frustration at criticism
Source: CNN
First Lady Melania Trump was secretly recorded in the summer of 2018 expressing her frustration at being criticized for her husband's policy of separating families who illegally crossed the southern border while at the same time needing to perform traditional first lady duties, such as preparing for Christmas.
"They say I'm complicit. I'm the same like him, I support him. I don't say enough I don't do enough where I am," she said in a tape secretly recorded by Stephanie Winston Wolkoff, a former friend and senior adviser to the first lady who wrote a book about their relationship, "Melania and Me."
The tapes were played exclusively on CNN's "Anderson Cooper 360" on Thursday night and were recorded by Wolkoff after she left the White House.
"I'm working ... my a** off on the Christmas stuff, that you know, who gives a f*** about the Christmas stuff and decorations? But I need to do it, right?"

Is it just me, or do you get the feeling that the Trump family doesn't engender loyalty among it's staffers?

(3,495 posts)Is for all Trump supporters to have to work with him for six months; pick any work environment. I don't think they would last 6 hours with him.
Now it seems all of his family, including his current wife, are cut from the same cloth. I can only imagine the number of books that are going to come out after this batch leaves office.
