It’s so unfortunate that we attack a person’s spouse when the real target should be the policies of the president him/her self.

In 2009, an uproar over Michelle Obama show her bare arms seem to make news. In 2016, Melania Trump’s past history of modeling raises even more criticism.

The children and spouses of major political figures should be off-limits when talking about political policies.
