Could be... I mean if you think about it she's hiding out in the one state where he can't really do anything. She also seems to be subtlety egging him on with criticizing Florida's weather and by association the Trump abode. Now she's contradicting her hubby's view on abortion. Like goading him to slip up and either run away or break one of the stipulations.
She could also be playing a long game, of sorts, and just doing it to increase his stress level. If you think about it, with his very likely unhealthy diet, his age and physique, along with the seemingly increase of droning on; adding the stress of even more controversy on top (other than his legal woes) could easily lower his life expectancy like a stone.
Either way, we won't know until after the dust settles following the election. But I do stand by my opinion that there is trouble in "paradise" and something has to be brewing.
She had clearly lost interest even before the last election. The kids played along, because they got to hobnob with various heads off state, and play like they were actually running things, but they're all conspicuously absent this time around.
If he has dementia - and it's been hard to tell whether he does or if that's just his natural state - then it's hard on them to be around him. Dementia doesn't differentiate: everybody gets the mean.
