WASHINGTON (Sinclair Broadcast Group) -- The second wife of President Trump's staff secretary Rob Porter tells The Daily Mail that she was abused by the aide.
Jennifer Willoughby told the online publication that she was "walking on eggshells" due to Porter's explosive anger.
"I can't remember what triggered it. He lashed out and was really angry and both under his breath and explicitly to me called me a f****ng b***h and f***ing ridiculous. He accused me of not caring about him or not caring about his needs," Willoughby said.
Willoughby continued saying, "over the course of the years of our marriage, I can think of several times where I was collapsing on the ground in tears and saying, 'just leave me alone, just stop' because the anger and the insults were too much."

(31,121 posts)1. Here are the defenses from the filth
When reached for comment, Trump's chief of staff John Kelly said Porter "is a man of true integrity and honor and I cant say enough good things about him. He is a friend, a confidante and a trusted professional. I am proud to serve alongside him."
Press Secretary Sarah Sanders also defended Porter, who is reportedly dating White House advisor Hope Hicks, saying that the aide "is someone of the highest integrity and exemplary character."

that Porter had a restraining order, thus could NOT get clearance to work in WH, but Trump hired him anyhow.

and of course tRUMP and cronies defend the abuser instead of the abused. Sounds familiar doesn't it?

(61,698 posts)9. Is anyone surprised that a trump aide who helps him write
these hateful policies is an accused abuser? The policies he helps articulate for dotus are abusive and cruel.
Fuck them all. Had to get that off my chest before Lent.
