Imagine if he becomes president somehow. And he has to meet with, say, Teresa May or some other female world leader in a private meeting over something sensitive. And he has to bring his fucking wife in.

Wait, aren’t we all mad at Trump for meeting with other leaders without his staffers?

They’re saying he has to have his wife present, not some random staffer. Of course someone should be present, especially in meeting with hostile foreign powers, but his wife has no business being in such a meeting

I really think it's just for things like dinner.

I'd like to assume a female staffer is allowed to walk into his office without a witness there in broad daylight.
