(14,930 posts)"She was born in Kraków, the child of Julian Kornhauser, a well-known writer, translator and literary critic[1][2] who dedicated a book of poetry to her in 1981,[3] and Alicja Wojna, a Polonist. She has one brother, Jakub, a poet and translator.[4] Her paternal grandfather was a Polish Jew.
.....
She is a German teacher at the Jan III Sobieski High School, Kraków,[6] where she has worked since 1998. She has been described as a demanding but fair and dedicated teacher, and during the presidential campaign only took one day off, vowing to stay with her students until the end of the school year.[7] The school is her husband's alma mater, she herself attended its rival Bartłomiej Nowodworski High School.[8] She wrote her dissertation on the tetralogy of Horst Bienek[9] at the Jagiellonian University,[10] where she and her husband met.[11]
.......
In terms of her own political beliefs, she has been described as more liberal than Andrzej Duda by her brother.[13]"

(9,426 posts)Maleria is a former nude, lesbian porn model and escort!! She can speak 5 languages (yeah, right!) and has two degrees from somewhere. Scratch that, they had to take it down when it was revealed that she dropped out of college.

but nevertheless, I confess to feeling some sympathy for her, which is what I believe the awesome Agata was demonstrating by shaking her hand just after bypassing the toxic maelstrom.

(4,037 posts)Her act may have been an oversight, not necessarily a slight, though I think any woman of substance would realize the only way to deal with His Excrement is ignoring him. He looks pissed. And he'll probably hold a grudge...or want to grab her p***y.

(113,941 posts)OldRedneck
(1,397 posts)On top of ignoring Trump, she likely spoke some obscure European language to Melania, saying: "When you divorce this asshole and clean out his bank account, we'll welcome you and your son to Poland."

MoonRiver
(36,926 posts)anneboleyn
(5,611 posts)And it is beautiful -- he actually stopped shaking her husband's hand because he assumed that she was running to pay homage to him so the slight is even more beautiful as he knew that she dissed him. He stands there pouting like a toddler (as he always does when things don't go his way -- waaaaah waaaaah waaaaaah). A beautiful and very accomplished woman slighted him in front of the world -- his poor ego will never recover.
