In 2005, the newlywed Melania Trump addressed a business class at New York University. A student asked the supermodel if she would still be with Donald Trump if he was not rich.

“If I weren’t beautiful, do you think he’d be with me?” she quipped.


And the O Henry irony is she is not beautiful and he is not rich.

I also think she got screwed on the prenup.

So while not as successful a gold digger as she may have been, that was/is her motivation.

So in other words, she married him - and presumably participates in the physical activities one would expect - because/for the money?

I don't feel at all sorry for her, but if she was just going after a big score, she could have done so much better.

Worst First Lady Ever.

(I'd be pretty hypocritical to judge her for her past whilst being a huge fan of Breakfast at Tiffany's and pro unionization of sex workers.)

She is as bad as he is - if not worse. She can take him down in a heartbeat yet stays on. She's in on this whole nightmare.

not b/c she wants to or believes in it. 1st ladies are traditionally supposed to lead a cause so she probably has been told she has to do something.
