On Tuesday, at a private fundraising event for top Republican fundraisers, Donald Trump went a little rogue. At first he was just reminiscing, thinking about that time the Rep Steve Scalise (R-LA) got shot.
But then he came out with this gem of a line:
[Scalises wife] cried her eyes out that fateful day
I mean not many wives would react that way to tragedy,
I know mine wouldnt.
We can only guess that Trump said this in jest, of course. But that line can be read in so many ways that soon, it was an online talking point for people eager to share their views on his and Melanias relationship.

Rep Scalise got shot, and Trump thinks its weird his wife was "crying her eyes out.
Then says, if it had been him, Melania wouldnt have cried?
