Quoted word for word from huffpost.com.
- In their own words
- “If there’s a dog house at the White House, the president just might be in it, marriage therapists say. President Donald Trump isn’t winning any husband-of-the-year awards as he campaigns for Republicans ahead of the midterms. The president made two speeches last week in which he joked about his wife, first lady Melania Trump, disapproving of two of his signature speech moves: his tendency to act out the debate over transgender athletes and his herky-jerky “YMCA” dance .” About page
