First lady Melania Trump just handed President Donald Trump his biggest humiliation yet as the president tried to outrun his decay, according to two political analysts.

Joanna Coles, chief content officer for The Daily Beast, argued during a new episode of "The Daily Beast Podcast" that President Trump is "decaying right before our eyes." She mentioned the president's ailing mental and physical health, as well as his seemingly erratic decision-making.

But there was one moment in particular that caught Coles's eye. Last month, Trump held Melania's hand tightly as he descended a short set of steps at the White House. While similar scenes have played out in the past and raised questions about Trump's health, Coles argued that this event showed just how bad Trump's health has gotten.

"It was also fascinating watching Melania standing next to him," she said. "I mean, two weeks after she gave her very peculiar speech about not knowing Jeffrey Epstein, and there she was again. And he's trying to reach for her hand, and she's flicking it away, and then she finally takes it when they have to walk down the stairs, because she knows he needs to cling onto her to walk down the stairs. He wasn't right next to a banister."

"So that was the sort of semi-tragic moment too, because her disdain for him was really very clear."

David Rothkopf, a columnist for The Daily Beast, added that it was "horrible" to watch her flick his hand away.

"She's sitting there stone-faced," he said. "You almost felt something for Trump in that kind of humiliation."
