President Donald Trump used his weekly message to say Happy Mothers Day with a tribute to his own mother, Mary MacLeod, who passed away in 2000.
So much of what Ive done and so much of what Ive become is because of my mother, President Trump said. She was just incredible. warm, loving, really smart, could be tough if she had to be, but basically she was a really nice person.
I miss her a lot, he noted.
But one mother President Trump did not mention is his current wife, the First Lady. Many found this to be odd, since Melania Trump is the mother of their child, 12-year old Barron Trump.
And they made clear their disappointment.

That's about $6 million of our tax dollars the republicans have just squandered this weekend to pamper the so-called "billionaire."

(12,563 posts)Remember all the candid photos of the Obamas with their daughters? Have you ever seen IQ45 interacting with his son in an affectionate way? Not that he has time; SHS says he works all the time for the American people. (The WH press lets her get away with this lie. No one ever challenges her with the number of golf games he's played since taking office, nor the cost to the public.)

(6,212 posts)I would think he should wish Ivana and Marla the same. He had children with them and that made them mothers too.

(63,221 posts)Probably because it repulses him to think of her as a mother. He has always said he could never be sexually attracted to a woman who has had children.
