Trump has a problem with women, especially if he thinks they (Melissa) make men look weak

Trump’s biggest problem with McCarthy’s Spicer impression on ‘SNL’ was his portrayal by a woman: report

Comedian Melissa McCarthy’s widely-revered portrayal of White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer on “Saturday Night Live” did not find a happy viewer in Donald Trump, Politico reports.

According to sources close to Trump, Spicer’s portrayal by a woman was “most problematic in the president’s eyes.”

“Trump doesn’t like his people to look weak,” a Trump donor said.

The New York Times’ Maggie Haberman reported Spicer’s performance, from his ill-fitting suit to his lacking a sense of humor, left much to be desired.

“Trump wanted him to be in command/project strength,” Haberman tweeted. “He did neither. … He wanted Spicer to be a derivative of himself -Trump almost always takes q’s & slices it with humor.”
