57. That makes sense. She is used to him.

As a woman who has been married to the same man for 52 years, I will say that after many years of marriage (27 for Bernie and Jane), you learn to communicate with each other by gestures and just looks that can easily be misunderstood by outsiders to the relationship.

You don't stay married for 27 years unless you are pretty used to the way that you interact with each other. This gesture by Bernie was understood by Jane. Very doubtful that she felt in any way disrespected. She appears to be 100 % on his side and happy with him.

Hillary has been treated far more disrespectfully by Bill. We all know the stories.
