Donald Trump likes to think of himself as a gentleman, but a recent viral moment captured on video suggests otherwise. Donald and his wife Melania Trump were questioned by reporters in the rain, and throughout the exchange, Donald, who was holding an umbrella, seemed to forget that his wife was getting wet.

Donald Trump leaves Melania Trump out in the rain
In the video, Donald and Melania were walking hand in hand when Donald noticed the reporter, put down his wife’s hand and walked towards the group. “She was great on TV that night,” he told reporters, pointing to Melania. “I didn’t do a bad job, either,” he added, “but she was great on TV.” He then retreated to his waiting wife, who was wiping rain from her face, and took her hand again as they began to return to their destination. However, cameras followed them and captured Donald holding just the umbrella above his head, leaving Melania to continue to get soaked by the rain.

“Afraid that his hair will go flat and his makeup will run off,” another agreed.
Another noted: “Honestly, it’s just a lack of respect.”
“As always, he has no regard for anyone but himself!” added the next person.
“What man would let his woman get wet?” asked another.
“This man is not a gentleman at all. He has taken up all the umbrellas and doesn’t even cover his wife!” the end user posted.
