Trump reportedly pissed because Melanie's power play made him look like "a bossed around husband."

“He’s pissed at damn near everyone,” one White House official told CNN.

Tapper added that the network learned that the president’s “intense and bitter mood” appeared to escalate after Republican losses in last week’s midterm elections.

The host also noted that a source told White House correspondent Kaitlan Collins that Trump “was furious” that First Lady Melania Trump issued a rare public statement condemning a national security adviser prior to that adviser’s ouster.

That move, Tapper said, made Trump worry he looked like “a bossed around husband.”

Anything above the level of subservience and silent worship from women just sends his needle into the red.

Got him the news cycle and less of the bad to Veterans story. He does it every time. Can’t ever get our teeth into one story when he throws red meat to the media wolves.

Plays them like a fiddle.

Then, Playmate Karen McDougal.

Then, a second, somewhat less-publicized Playmate, Barbara Moore.

It's one thing to "suspect" your spouse of "infidelity"...it's another matter to be a public figure and have "proof" all over the media, 24/7.

Because I don't see her as a "good person"...largely because of, but not limited to her "birtherism"...I "really don't care."

We know she cares about Barron. Regardless of who she is and what she is, I think that's a "given."

I see no evidence that she cares at all about Trump's other children.

So it all comes down to the pre-nup, and the emotional scarring that Barron would face in the wake of a divorce.

Then again, I know nothing about his comprehension / awareness level at this age. I have no idea if he's aware of the headlines about his father, if he understands them, or cares about them. One day he will.

It's all part of the rich legacy Trump will leave behind. He's the poster child for every unrepentant male P.O.S. on the planet.

Yeah, I've read the official reasons Mel objected, but those are not always the real reasons.

Many people are saying. I'm not saying. Many people are saying that Dirty Donnie has been grabbing the wrong ... people.
