TBM wife jokes about resigning?

My wife is out of town hanging out with a daughter today at the zoo. I just had a really interesting text message exchange with her. As background, she is very anti-Trump.

Me: Trump finally found a music group willing to play at his inauguration. Guess who...
Her: One direction, Miley Cyrus, The Wiggles ?
Me: Mormon Tabernacle Choir. No joke.
Her: Shut up!
Her:Thats it
Her: I'm leaving
Her: Put me in touch with that lawyer

I sent her a link to the news article I read and she hasn't texted again for several hours. I'm taking this as a joke at this point, since she could conceivably joke like that but there is a small part of me that is wondering if she is really pissed about this. I guess I won't find out until late late tonight or tomorrow...

Maybe the winter solstice helped?

Was there an solar eclipse recently?

She did watch an r-rated movie recently. Holy Ghost was probably grieved. Now Satan has taken her over.

I know my wife is very different from most TBMs but joking about resignation surprised me.

Just go with it. Send her the contact info for the lawyer, without additional questions or comments.

I'm so jealous, even if she is "joking." You don't say something like that if you are a die hard TBM. She is having doubts. I wish so badly that my husband would wake up from his delusional Mormon fantasyland.

Might also be a good segway into sending her a link to that Deseret News story on using the essays in GD for 2017.

Something like "Not only is the TC performing for Trump, but it looks like we might finally have some interesting lessons in GD about magic rods." (See Hagoth's post about the Rod of AAron).
