Melania Trump defended her husband, Donald Trump, on Monday in Wisconsin and claimed that he isn't sexist, NBC News reported.
Reading from prepared notes, she said, "As you may know by now, when you attack him he will punch back 10 times harder. No matter who you are, a man or a woman, he treats everyone equal."
The lengthy remarks were a first for Trump's wife, who is rarely on the campaign trail, and when she has spoken in the past has kept it brief.
Meanwhile, Trump was on offense regarding delegate allocation and wins. Comparing the delegate fight to a prize fight, Trump pointed to Louisiana as a sign of the unfair nature of the delegate system.
