"A lot of wives wouldn't give a damn," Trump says, explaining that he knew Steve Scalise's wife loved him because she was upset when he was shot.

Trump of Rep. Steve Scalise: "He got whacked." He then vividly recounts Scalife's wife's devastation after Scalise was shot. He says she was "a total mess." He says other wives wouldn't have been that upset.

Trump just said GOP Rep Steve Scalise wasn’t good looking until after he got shot: “I think you’re better looking now. You’re more handsome now. You weren’t that good looking.“ Trump then talked about the shooting and re-enacted a gun being shot. Unreal, unhinged and demented.

Trump is cracking a joke about how most wives wouldn't care if their husbands were shot like Steve Scalise.

Speechless.

MF45 is clearly confusing a "lot of wives" with Melaria. I'm pretty sure she wouldn't give a damn

When he speaks of others' pain, there's a lightheartedness, some laughter, some undercutting. When he speaks about his own pain, he's deadly serious.

During the Jodi Arias trial, she only cried once: when she was watching video of herself crying in a police interview. It was like the only pain that she could relate to was her own suffering.

alternate reality. An actual US president said this. Beyond bizarre.

Well, he must be thinking about Melania if her husband got shot.

He said, “Most wives would not be upset. At least, I known mine wouldn’t.”

He knows her well. She probably tells him to drop dead regularly.
