On Don Lemon's show CNN Tonight on Wednesday, liberal analyst Joan Walsh slammed First Lady Melania Trump for "whining" in a Sean Hannity interview about how the media mangles history on this presidency.

Fox's Gutfeld Blasts CNN's Joan Walsh

JOAN WALSH: She continues to whine about a situation that she's part of, and it's a great honor to be first lady. And I'm sure privately, you're allowed to grouse, but you know, if Michelle Obama had done half the complaining that she has done in her -- in her limited interviews -- She doesn't do many -- she'd be skewered.I mean, there's just like a constant sort of pity party when she gets in front of a microphone.

At least Republican CNN analyst Rob Astorino shot back: "She didn't need to complain, the media loved her," and then Lemon mysteriously babbled about "You don't remember when people talked about her sleeveless dress?...When she was first lady, she realized it was a high honor to be first lady."

Lemon poured sugar all over the Obamas. Here's two Lemon drops from just the last few years:

Earlier in the hour, Susan Glasser sounded the same alarm:

SUSAN GLASSER: I was really struck by her comment. First of all, she has this incredible air of aggrievement. Here is this extraordinary story of a woman who came to this country as an immigrant, as a model and is now the first lady of the United States and, you know, you would think in her rare public appearances, you know, that some terrible wrong has been done to her in this country.

I've always been surprised by that air of grievance that she carries very publicly with her, but I was struck by this comment that she just made about history and the idea that the history of the Trump presidency and of their family is being miswritten. 

On Fox's The Five on Thursday, Greg Gutfeld lit into Walsh when asked if Melania could be doing a better job: 

GREG GUTFELD: You know what? The people meanest to the first lady happen to be women. Have you noticed that?

DANA PERINO: Always, yes.

GUTFELD: Joan Walsh. It's very interesting that feminists are all about leaning in -- #MeToo, you go, girl -- until you disagree with them. And then they're -- they're as chauvinistic and sexist as the next guy.

PERINO: It's not that they -- they don't even disagree with her. They just don't like her husband.

GUTFELD: Yes, it's called Trump hate spillover. It hits everybody that's in his circle. Because she's kept a lower profile than Amelia Earhart. Let's face it. She's not out there, but they go after her.And I said this before. Imagine if your spouse ran for president in a foreign country and won; and now I became the first lady, you became the first lady. It's a job you didn't really sign up for. That's what happened to her.

Well, when one is the editor for such a 'reputable' rag..

What you think counts.. NOT!!!

[Skooz]

...but you know, if Michelle Obama had done half the complaining that she has done in her...

You media sycophants would nod in groveling agreement with your Queen and cluck endlessly about how her heinous is being mistreated.

[Kaslin]

You said it.

[trebb]

Too funny - she whines about her perception that FLOTUS whined....

[farming pharmer]

Well, Joan, Melania is three times the American Manchelle will ever be and a hell of a lot easier on the eye.

Women who let their seemier side rule, are catty and spiteful. When in a group, there is always ONE who fits that description.

When they see another woman who seems to have it all... looks, figure and a wealthy husband... the b woman will tear her apart... to bring her down to a lower level so she is not perfect in the b woman’s mind.

Now if a woman already has a flaw, she will be excused from the attack... she’s already down to that level (all this is in the eyes of the b woman).

A flaw would be: in a wheelchair, carrying extra pounds, poor and sloppy.. and so on. You get the idea.

The b woman can’t stand to think another woman is better than the b woman is. So the one that is being attacked.. it’s because she is beautiful and has it all! And the b type women can’t stand it!

It is the women who criticize Melania

But with Mrs Obama, is the men.

“For the first time in my adult life...” F’en n*gger. * = a, most times, some times a different vowel slips in between the first and third consonants.

When it does, the people will still be cipher'en, what in the hell is a consonant.

if Michelle Obama had done half the complaining that she has done in her

[pax_et_bonum]

Lol! What you said!

I’d like to add to your insightful list of looks, figure and a wealthy husband:

and/or self-confidence and/or lack of interest in the group’s pecking order.

I don’t know if you heard or read it but Moochele and 0bama are on the way to become soon Billionaires

Women want to be secure.. and the seemier type want it any way they can get it.

It has been said ...in school, young age, if boys have a disagreement, they either have a fight or somehow they take care of it, and go on with their day .. If girls have a disagreement, it goes on forever.. fussing, trying to get even with each other.. they spend their time trying to outdo the other one.

I had 4 sons and their moods were pretty even all the time. Add a daughter and her moods were up and down.. moody... Boys are easier to raise, and easier to associate with, for that reason. (my opinion)

Women bullies have much different ways of attacking than men do. This vid has a very interesting explanation of why.
A bit longish at 18 minutes but worth a listen.

I have known since I was a young girl that women were very different than men. Mren can. disagree with each other and move past it. With women, when we disagree, it’s PERSONAL!

Disgreeing with a female is hard. Making up is impossible. Men can make up. Women will remember it forever!

Yes! Have you seen the insurance commercial where the husband tells his wife the ins co doesn’t hold grudges.

In all my years, there has been ONE friend I can trust. ONE!
