In Melania Trump's response to her husband's sexist attack on Mika Brzezinski, supporting that and saying that he'll "punch back 10 times harder" she has removed any reason to hold back on her. In the past even rough and tumble journalists like Molly Ivins said that you don't go after a politician's wife but when a politician's wife supports their husband when he is a gutter level thug like hers, they have removed the presumed protection that someone might grant them.
As far as I'm concerned, any inclination I had to hold back on Melania Trump in my political writing ended with this. Everything from her call-girl appearance to her hypocrisy on her "signature issue" cyber-bullying (yeah, right) is fair commentary from now on.
