During Monday's edition of CNN's New Day, a brief discussion about the Trump marriage took place, where CNN Correspondent Kate Bennett did her best to play up the narrative that the First Couple is plagued by marital problems.

First Lady Melania Trump’s plans to speak at a White House luncheon today provided New Day’s Alisyn Camerota with a perfect opportunity to bring up the state of the Trump marriage despite the fact that CNN’s own reporting revealed that she plans to talk about the gun issue. Rather than focus on the substance of her upcoming speech, Camerota brought in Kate Bennett, who said that “2018 has sort of, so far, been a horrible, no good, very bad year for the First Lady” because of the allegations of extramarital affairs surrounding the President.

Bennett then went on to share some conspiracy theories about the Trump marriage, suggesting that the First Lady taking a separate car to the State of the Union address and cancelling her trip to Davos, Switzerland show that the First Couple has marital problems. Bennett dismissed the response of the First Lady’s press team, who argued that her cancellation of the Davos trip came as a result of a scheduling conflict, saying “One cannot help but wonder what might be going on behind the scenes.”

Camerota responded to Bennett’s gossip by saying “None of that seems typical.” She then turned her attention to her co-host Chris Cuomo, who was beside himself after recalling a moment last year where the First Lady appeared to slap away her husband after he attempted to hold her hand during an overseas trip to Israel last year.

Throughout the entire segment, Camerota and Bennett tried to drive home the point that Mrs. Trump has been an inactive First Lady, only mentioning that “we have seen her by his side at various times but we certainly have not heard from her very much.” Apparently, they did not notice when she traveled with the President to meet with the victims of the Parkland shooting as well as the Las Vegas shooting last year. They also forgot to mention that Melania has another role to play; mother to 11-year-old Baron. It should not come as a surprise that they conveniently left these stories out, as they do not serve the narrative of a Trump marriage on the rocks.

In addition to yearning for a Trump impeachment, this morning’s segment on New Day made it clear that the media may also wish to see another Trump divorce in the near future. If only they cared about covering issues that the American people actually care about.
