normal annoyances.

7. She is just humanizing him.

It is puzzling why you would be upset by this. This is the lighter side of politics not to be taken very seriously.

9. It's called semi self deprecating humor......since she's married to him....

Self-deprecation (properly, self-depreciation or self-effacing) is a form of humor in which a comedian makes jokes about himself, his shortcomings, or his culture.

The boundaries for this kind of humor are often more relaxed than for other kinds of humor. For example, whereas a Jewish joke told by a non-Jew may be considered anti-semitic and offensive, the same joke told by a Jew may be taken in good humor. The ability to laugh at oneself and the absurdities in one's own culture is often considered a good character trait.

Many comedians use self-deprecating humor to avoid seeming arrogant or pompous, and to help the audience identify with them.
