Too lazy to look it up right now, but I think I read it on huffpost.

How the hell does a person spend that much money in one night?

Melania's blatantly immigrant.

Sure, she just doesn't happen to feel like it. Right.

No doubt she could help a local candidate here or there, but she doesn't strengthen the nationalist, protectionist message and could weaken it. They don't want the talking heads talking about immigration = Melania. They're not putting her out.

Our new ultraweathly classes and the religious and social conservatives who are tired of losing the culture wars at the polls are coming to see authoritarian government as the answer to the problems of representative government.

The stakes are enormous. So I just think we should assume there was a lot of discussion and advice on this topic. Of course, we also know that Trump doesn't like to take advice and Melania takes pets.
