Melania Trump says she
disagrees with her husband on ‘many things’ and wishes he hadn’t called Ted
Cruz a ‘p****’
In her second ever solo
interview, Melania Trump spoke out about her husband calling Ted Cruz a pussy at a campaign event in New Hampshire. When a woman shouted out the derogatory
word during the event, Melania says she was thinking ‘Don’t repeat it’.
While she admits that she
and her husband have many differences, Melania says she respects The Donald and
doesn’t try to change him. With Donald Trump charging towards the Republican
presidential nomination, his wife Melania is taking a more active role in his
campaign.
In her second ever solo
television interview, Melania tells CNN‘s Anderson Cooper that she and The
Donald disagree on ‘many things’ – especially his crass language.
Melania referenced in
particular an incident that happened at a campaign stop in New Hampshire
recently, when Trump echoed an audience member’s shout that ‘Ted Cruz is a
p***’.
Accepting:
While Melania admitted that she confronted her husband about his use of
language, she says that she doesn’t try to change anything about him and she
thinks it’s healthy that they have differences ‘I was in New Hampshire when the
woman was shouting out the inappropriate word, and I was there,’ Melania
recalled.
‘And I’m thinking like, “Don’t repeat it,” in
my head, for him, “Don’t repeat it. Just don’t say it because the next day,
media, all they will talk about is that.” But he repeated it. ‘He’s with the
momentum, he goes with the flow, he goes with the people. They’re having fun,
everybody was cheering.
And
he said it and the next day – but he repeated the word. That was not his word.’
Trump later admitted that he wouldn’t use that type of language if he were
indeed elected president.
Repeat
offense: Trump pictured above at the New Hampshire rally where he repeated the
derogatory statement about Ted Cruz after someone yelled it in the crowd.
While Melania admitted that she confronted her
husband about his use of language after the rally, she says that she doesn’t
try to change anything about him and she thinks it’s healthy that they have
differences.
‘We are both very independent – I let him be
who he is and he lets me be who I am.…Share’I don’t try to change him. He’s an
adult. He knows the consequences and so I let him be who he is. I give him my
opinions, many, many times.’
She
added: ‘I don’t agree with everything that he says, but you know, that is
normal. I’m my own person, I tell him what I think, I’m standing very strong on
the ground on my two feet and I’m my own person, and I think that’s very
important in the relationship.’
