When it comes to the likes of dictators/tyrants/despots etc. do you think their women are at all culpable of the wrongdoings of their men? For example, when Mussolini was killed his mistress was as well, do you think she didn't deserve it? Or as I have seen on TV when guys like the aforementioned get arrested their women have TONS of clothes, shoes, hand bags etc. Obviously she herself may not be in power but clearly she is happy to spend the money off of her mans heinous deeds.

Another is Elena Ceaușescu, her husband was a commie dictator and she fully embraced it.

It depends on the details. Did they just love the wrong person, or did they help or encourage it? Did they protest their actions? Nothing is usually black and white. Its all grey.

I don't know. Is Melania Trump responsible for Donald's actions? Sometimes a woman just makes the best of things with the man who is the father of her children. Other women are co-conspirators with their malevolent spouses. Think Eva Peron of Argentina. Hitler AND his mistress both killed themselves before the allies could capture them. Of course, it might have been a murder-suicide with Hitler offing Eva Braun before doing himself in.

We do know that Hillary was complicit in her husband's corruption and in covering up his many sexual misdeeds besides Monica.

I don't know how much power Saddam Hussein's wives had over him or how much power Assad's wife does, though probably not much given in the Muslim culture women are simply property.

Ask Clara Petachi and Eva Braun. Maybe Imelda Marcos would know.

Why am I not surprised. Men wanting to blame women for men's bad behavior.


We can be civilized and punish those who actually commit crimes or we can go back to the dark ages where when tyrants in power were overthrown we gathered up their entire families and executed them. Guilty by association.

I was thinking the same thing.



I think the Left has it out for the entire Trump family. Have you noticed how the kids have removed themselves from the spotlight? The constant attacks and negative press has to be terrible.





Melania is an immigrant so she might get a pass if the Lefty mob was to storm the White House for Trumps head.

Mob rules knows no justice. Such as when Czar Nicholas II whole family was murdered by the Bolsheviks.

I think Melanie is just the trophy wife that has nothing to do with his dealings. She doesn’t strike me as someone smart enough to be complicit or even have any idea of what’s happening. Now his adult children are definitely complicit.
