Check out this video of Trump and Melania

https://www.facebook.com/BlastAvenue/videos/1566668930011636/

It's strange. She's smiling. He turns and says something. The smile disappears and then she's frowning. It almost looks like she's about to cry.

It's hard to understand without any context, but still. The sudden change of emotion has me wondering.

The only place I can find this is at FB.

Clearly there is a problem. I hope there is someone trustful that she can talk to.

A gilded marble prison is still a prison. While i might comment on the dynamics of that family, she and her son are off limits.

I got out of an abusive relationship a few decades back. It's hard for me to witness something like this that could be possible verbal abuse.

My daughter brought it to my attention a little while ago. Domestic abuse, both physical and verbal, is something we're both pretty sensitive to. I don't care if it's someone I hate, no woman deserves it.

We're both bothered by this video.

and yeah, I think those of us who have are all capable of feeling sorry for the classic bird in a gilded cage, especially when a bully boy is part of the picture.

(and yes, it can go the other way but we're talking about Melania here)

and his children makes me believe that he is very abusive to those who are close to him (fortunately, that is very few people). She must feel very trapped because she knows that he would destroy her and take her son away if she ever tried to leave. She may have made a poor decision in marrying him, but she should have to pay like this.

Maybe it's my own imagination, but the wind got sucked right out of her sails on that interaction. I bet he is cruel as fuck(And I mean to be vulgar on this for emphasis).

and harsh words to them.
Obviously he has a high need to denigrate others. Sad.

a very short statement thrown her way that completely changed her body language.
