Former First Lady Melania Trump is hurting after her husband was indicted on 37 federal counts involving his retention of classified documents in their Mar-a-Lago home, he said Sunday.
During an interview with Roger Stone on Sunday, Trump said, “ She’s hurt when the family’s hurt, because the family gets hurt.”
He made his comments after extolling the virtues of his wife, who he said was smart and successful, but very modest.
He also said, when he was speaking to GOP supporters in Georgia and North Carolina on Saturday, the outpouring of support for his wife was overwhelming.
“We love our first lady, pictures of Melania all over the place,” he said.
Melania Trump has been totally silent since the indictment came down Friday, as has Trump’s daughter Ivanka, who is said to have “disappeared.”
