I'm sure I've forgotten at least half of the absurd, childish and completely embarrassing things he has said over the last year.
But for whatever reason, this one sinks to a new low for me.
Any reasonable person supporting this man should seriously consider changing their mind.

Oh so Trump is just supposed to take this shit thrown at HIS wife?
What shit thrown at his wife?
Melania was a super model in the 90's. She did a semi nude spread for GQ. I believe Heidi Klum did too for that edition.
Basically the super pac aimed that GQ cover at LDS women to slut shame her. It was a real low blow.
really? i don't like it but they didn't make any false or questionable claims about her, did they?
Come on. Even Vox and Slate were disgusted by what they did. There's no subtlety to what message they were sending.
Check this out. Cruz did not condemn the ad.
Anti-Trump Ads Try To Win Over Mormons By Slut-Shaming Melania
There’s No Need to Slut-Shame Melania in Political Ads. Trump Is Horrible Enough!

Mormons
don’t like Donald Trump, and it’s easy to see why. He’s a fan of profanity; Mormons think swearing’s a sin. Trump has founded his candidacy on draconian, xenophobic immigration proposals; Mormons, once the victims of discriminatory immigration policies, are
more likely to support immigration than the average Republican.
The conservative anti-Trump SuperPAC
Make America Awesome has proposed another reason for Mormon Republicans to ditch the current front-runner: his wife.
In the lead-up to Tuesday’s Republican caucus in Utah, Make America Awesome has run a series of extraordinarily low-budget, meme-like ads telling Mormons on Facebook and Instagram to vote for Ted Cruz. There’s one that cites Mitt Romney’s advice to back whichever Republican can beat Trump. (In Utah, where Trump trails Cruz and John Kasich, that’s Cruz.) Another, with a stock photo of an infant, pegs Trump as a pro-choice politician.
Then there’s this one, which pulls an image from a
British GQ profile of Melania, then Donald Trump’s girlfriend, from 2000.
It’s a cynical, short-sighted move from SuperPAC head Liz Mair, who is playing on voters’ impulses toward slut-shaming to turn them against a political candidate with actual, substantive, terrifying shortcomings that have nothing to do with his wife’s body.
Mormons disavow pornography and revealing clothing; Mair’s ad implies that Melania is an immoral, hypersexual woman with no modesty who’d embarrass America by association. (Mair did not respond with comment in time for publication.)*
