Jake Tapper: Melania Trump's Ex-Aide Reacts To Absence of Former First lady During NY Hush Money Trial

Source:CNN talking about former First Lady of the United States & Defendant Don's wife, Melania Trump.

"Stephanie Winston Wolkoff, a former senior adviser to Melania Trump, tells CNN's Jake Tapper why she doesn't think the former first lady will accompany her husband to court." 

From CNN

Generally when high profile people become criminal defendants and are on trial, they have the support of their families. Their spouses, their children, their children-in-laws, their close friends. Even O..J. Simpson had that with his kids in the mid 1990s in Los Angeles and even freakin Italian Mafia boss John Gotti, who either ordered the hits on multiple people, or personally murdered people himself, and did both like with the Paul Castellano hit back in 1985, he had the support of his wife and kids when he was on trial in New York in 1992.. 

But like with every rule in life, there are exceptions to every rule. Just look at the MAGA political playbook: 

Adultery is a bad thing. Except when Donald Trump does it. 

Pornography is a bad thing. Except when Donald Trump does it. 

Lying is wrong. Except when Donald Trump does it.

The rule of law is a great American value that we should always cherish. Except when it threatens Donald Trump's personal freedom and political career. 

Rules are meant to be broken, when Donald Trump breaks them. 

And perhaps the most interesting exception here: wives stand by their criminal defendant husbands, except when they don't believe them. 

I'm not going to claim that I know Melania Trump well, or even personally. Very few people do. She gives new meaning to the term human confidential. (Actually, I think I just invented that term) She's one of the most private people in the world. 

But, as Melania's own former aid Stephanie Winston Wolkoff told CNN anchor Jake Tapper and SW Wolkoff does know Melania very well, I mean she worked for her in New York and at The White House, her marriage with Donald is transactional. 

Every relationship that Donald J. Trump has ever had has been transactional. So why would the relationship with his youngish and still very youngish looking, gorgeous, babydoll wife, whose still better looking than his daughters, be any different? She's with Donald as long as that's good for her. 

Melania has been taking a beating at her husband's criminal trial so far. It's not just his affair with Stephanie Clifford (also known as Stormy Daniels) that's now public, but the details of it. But not only that, how her husband paid her off. But add to that, she didn't seem concern by it and was behind the strategy as far as how the Trump Campaign would play the voters in the media about the Access Hollywood tape back in October, 2016. 

If Melania Trump is the loving wife who stands by her man, you would think she would make a public appearance at her own criminal defendant husband's criminal trial. If for no other reason to get the media and voters to believe that she stands by her man. Even if she actually thinks he's guilty as hell privately. Unless of course she believes the case against him and perhaps even knows her husband is guilty. And is staying away from him sort of as marital retribution.
