Why Does Trump Care About Allegations of Affairs?


March 25, 2018 at 10:48 am EDT By Taegan Goddard

“But in that final month on the trail, there was something else weighing on Trump’s mind, even more than the assault allegations. According to three top campaign officials, speaking to the Daily Beast on the condition of anonymity to discuss private conversations, Trump began pressing senior staffers about the specific dates that the women were alleging that the assaults, affairs, or harassment took place.”

“If the date fell within the time period of the early stage of his marriage to Melania Trump—and the birth of their son Barron—Trump would suddenly care more about the story and quiz campaign aides more closely about it. Officials concluded that Trump’s true concern was not so much being accused of sexual harassment as it was, in the words of one aide, about ‘pissing off Melania.'”

since he seems to have little respect for her and they don't seem to spend much time together. I suppose he didn't want to run the risk of a messy divorce, which would be a drag on the campaign.

Why would he care? He does not care about anyone but himself. Melania?? He hardly knows she exists as a person. She is a merely a prop that he currently owns.
