‘Talk about weird’: Trump shares bizarre description of how Melania reacted to shooting



Donald Trump revealed his wife’s reaction to an attempt to kill him as he addressed a Pennsylvania rally earlier this month — and his description left onlookers bemused.

The former president was speaking with Fox News’ Laura Ingraham Monday when the host asked him how Melania took the news that he’d been shot and injured.

"What was Melania's reaction?” Ingraham asked. “I hope you don't mind me asking, I know this is very personal, when she learned about what happened on that field in Butler?"

Trump said his wife had been watching life when the shots rang out, leaving him with a blood-streaked face as his security rushed him off the stage. A supporter in the crowd was killed.

"She was watching … she was watching live, it was all over the place, it was on television, it was on your network, but it was all over the place and she was watching," Trump told Ingraham.

"And I asked her that, I mean I wasn't there, I was on the ground — when the world started to, when you could talk to people and said, 'So what was your feeling,' and she was ah, she can't really even talk about it.

"Which is OK, because that means she likes me or she loves me. Let's say if she could talk about it freely, that would be, I'm not so sure which is better but ah, she either likes or loves me, that's nice."

The reaction was considered bizarre by many who watched the show.

“This dude is just freaking weird,” wrote an X user with the name Alan!. “He thinks his wife either ‘likes me or loves me.’ He thinks.”

“‘My wife either likes or loves me,’ is weird.” wrote X user Stephen M. Thomas. “‘She can’t talk about how she feels about me being shot at’ sounds like indifference.”

“If you don’t know, it’s neither,” wrote Patti Vasquez.

Trump’s revelation was the first to describe her reaction, though she did issue a statement the day after the shooting.

"Let us remember that when the time comes to look beyond the left and the right, beyond the red and the blue, we all come from families with the passion to fight for a better life together, while we are here, in this earthly realm,” she wrote.
