Am watching crazy Rick's speech at CPAC and he has his family on the stage with him. His wife looks so unhappy, probably because having all those kids has been very hard on her. He does not know about her pain, just his opinion about child-bearing. It can't be difficult, so she never has his sympathy.
He's crazy.

That said, I agree that RS is crazy.

Her face shows how domineering that creep is and I'll bet she'd rather be home with the daughter who is ill....

Do you really need to ask? 99% of the media is just the Propaganda Ministry for the 1%

She would rather be home with this little girl than Rick's having her "stand behind her man."
I'll bet she hates him...

You think maybe she has a right to be sad?
Barbara Bush supposedly went gray overnight when her daughter died as a young girl back when Babs was in her 30's. Something like that will never leave you.

(10,044 posts)But I doubt if Rick has any for her. He's driven by something other than love for his family, pure ambition.
I thought her eyes showed she was "alone" emotionally and doubt that she wanted to be there. Maybe she'd rather be home holding that toddler than trying to make that sociopath look good.
