Donald Trump called Andrew McCabe's wife a 'loser', ex-FBI official claims in new book

President Trump mocked Andrew McCabe’s wife as a “loser” during a conversation between the two, the ex-FBI deputy director claims in a new book.

McCabe detailed the alleged discussion, which was included in an excerpt published by The Atlantic, saying it took place shortly after the firing of FBI Director James Comey. The subject of McCabe's wife, Jill, a physician, came up when Trump asked about her failed 2015 bid for a Virginia state Senate seat, for which she received several hundred thousand dollars in campaign donations from a PAC linked to the Clintons.

“He said, How is your wife? I said, 'She’s fine.' He said, 'When she lost her election, that must have been very tough to lose. How did she handle losing? Is it tough to lose?'"

“I replied, I guess it’s tough to lose anything. But she’s rededicated herself to her career and her job and taking care of kids in the emergency room. That’s what she does.
