72. Well, I cannot be surprised at this.

Yes, Melania married him, and yes she has a son. But it is hard for me not to feel some compassion for her, at least. Can you imagine the horror she must be feeling knowing her husband is now the laughingstock of the world, that he has lurched from crisis to crisis without anything resembling a plan, that he is totally unqualified to be president, and that he quite possibly has committed a variety of crimes up to and including treason, for which he may well be stripped of all wealth and end up living out his life in a cage.

And, now, she must also deal with the personal humiliation that her husband slept with other women while she was recovering from giving birth to his son.

Trump is a dirtbag.

I suspect Melania is a victim of abuse, and I know without doubt she is a victim of circumstances.
