Melania Trump is ‘focused on being a mom’ in the wake of Stormy Daniels’ interview
March 27, 2018
Donald and Melania Trump did not watch Stormy Daniels’ 60 Minutes interview together. Bigly flew back to Washington on Sunday, and Melania and Barron stayed behind at Mar-a-Lago, where they will stay all week (because this is Barron’s spring break). I would imagine that Melania isn’t too happy about Stormy, but I think the larger problem for Melania is that her current life is a hellscape of treason and sadness. So someone had the balls to ask Melania’s long-suffering press secretary for a comment about Melania’s reaction to Stormy’s interview. This is what happened:
If Melania Trump saw Stormy Daniels’ bombshell 60 Minutes interview on Sunday, she’s not letting the public know. When asked if the first lady watched the tell-all where the porn star detailed her alleged sexual relationship with Donald Trump in 2006 — a year after Melania and President Trump’s wedding — White House Director of Communications for the first lady Stephanie Grisham evaded the question.
“She’s focused on being a mom and is quite enjoying spring break at Mar-a-Lago while working on future projects,” the spokeswoman said.
Grisham also tweeted on Sunday, “While I know the media is enjoying speculation & salacious gossip, I’d like to remind people there’s a minor child who’s name should be kept out of news stories when at all possible,” referring to Melania and President Trump’s 12-year-old son, Barron.
“I’d like to remind people there’s a minor child who’s name should be kept out of news stories when at all possible.” Literally no one has mentioned Barron’s name in the Stormy stories. The Trumps are the ones using Barron as a human deflection shield. If the political parties were reversed and a Democratic president had an affair with a porn star and then lied about it and covered it up and paid hush money, I would imagine the Republicans would be SUPER CONCERNED about the Democrat’s children too. Oh wait, the Republicans constantly went after Chelsea Clinton and Michelle, Sasha and Malia Obama? Oh, right.
As for Melania focusing on being a mom… by all accounts, she’s a devoted mother. By all accounts, she adores her son and they have a special connection, and she’s even taught him her native language. So I guess what this vague statement is supposed to mean is that Melania will stay with Bigly no matter what because of Barron, because Melania values motherhood so much. I’m sure the Evangelicals will eat that up. Ugh.
