It's bad enough that she minced off to Air Force One in those 6-inch stilettos, but she also clearly had at least two different outfits planned for the trip, as if she was a bride getting dressed in a going away ensemble. But this hat just takes the proverbial cake.

But when they were in France awhile ago, Macron's wife spoke to her in French and says Melania did not understand a word.

Problem is, Trump is broke. In deep deep debt, has been living on all the loans he took on his properties, and when the loans come due, he simply gets another. In some places, he has 1st, 2nd, 3rd, loans on a property.

Which means Melania won't walk away with much if she files for divorce now.

I agree we shouldn't judge her on looks/hotness, has nothing to do with anything, as many women of the younger generations like to show off their looks/swag.

The issue is her character.

She's a craven opportunist who married/stands by a ruthlessly corrupt fascist (he never hid this fact), and is likely a fascist herself.

The fact that she plays the role of the idealized and innocent white wife shouldn't absolve her of agency.

One of Trump's hack writers wrote it and gave it to her. Maybe even KellyAnne for all I know.

Anyone who's speaking english as a second language would have a problem writing a speech in english, so I don't hold that against her. But the real writer never owned up to it, they just let her take the blame.

Well, Michelle was and is STILL called:

An ape in heels.

A monkey.

A silver-back gorilla.

Uppity.

A man.

A communist (Third-lady's daddy was a commie).

An angry black woman.

Ghetto.

The N-word.

Pickinanny.

Bed Wench.

Mooochelle.

White House Welfare Queen.

Amongst OTHER things.

NO ONE (Except the 11 year old) is off-limits in that tReasonous, filthy, disgusting, grifting, racist crime family.

Not even plagiarizing, "5-inch stiletto heel wearing during a disaster but changed into WHITE tennis later" Melania.



Disaster Barbie Melania went all birther on Pres. Obama just like her husband did. Guess HER birth-certificate was more valid than Pres. Obama's because she's White-European and because he's BLACK

Sorry, but she doesn't get a pass from me and apparently not from a lot of other people. IF Michelle had gone out to a disaster area where people are dying and losing everything they have and fighting for their lives dressed like she was on the Red Carpet ... MY GOD, I could only imagine.



And Pres. Obama's STILL catching racism, lies and hell, and he's out of office.

if I could add one other thought and that is no adult woman can be made to do what she doesn't want to do. She can simply say NO, I don't care who she is. She is as despicable as her husband and is behind him 100%.

Actually ....

MUCH better than them, because I could NEVER, EVER take away anybody's health care KNOWING that 22 million or more people would lose their health care which could lead to countless DEATHS all across this country. But, I guess YOU'D be okay with having your health care taken from you because you wouldn't want to get down there with them and fight to keep your health insurance

Got it!

99% of thuglicans showed that they'd take health care away from 22 million people, many of whom would die without health care/treatment. People who protested that shouldn't have gotten down there in the gutter protesting. Nah, just sit there like pious bumps on pickles and accept that

Got it!

Hey, why not let the ruSSIa investigations go too, because there's no WAY Democrats should investigate him and his racist crime family--NO need to get down into the gutter investigating tReasonous tRumputin. Oh no, let the ruSSia investigations GO. Let fatso continue to be a big, loud, ignorant, tReasonous, racist BULLY--Uh huh, keep letting him punch those of us in our noses who cannot stand his nasty, mentally-deteriorating, lying old ass

Got it!

While we as Democrats (as supporters of women's rights) shouldn't judge her on her looks or choice of dress, she should be judged on her overall actions and character - as an opportunist who married/stands by a fascist, and/or is a fascist herself.

Playing the role of the idealized white wife shouldn't absolve her of criticism, especially when 'rebel' first ladies like Hillary and Michelle were brutalized by the right and the media.

Great commentary

Especially: "Playing the role of the idealized white wife shouldn't absolve her of criticism, especially when 'rebel' first ladies like Hillary and Michelle were brutalized by the right and the media."

Read so many insults--especially of the racist variety about Michelle YESTERDAY (As if it ever stopped), and I was sure not going to sit back and take that racist crap, especially with this racist, low-life, grifting, crime family installed in the White House. tRumputin's already gotten enough passes in his rotten, miserable life and so has his birther wife. 'Bout time Liberals spoke up and held Melania accountable for her birtherism, especially when in the context of highly accomplished person like Michelle (And even Barack) being brutalized as you rightfully say and amongst other things called "Trash in the White House" by the likes of a low-life, mentally-disturbed, right-wing scum bucket like Tammy Bruce who says Melania's doing a "great" job as first lady, unlike Michelle Obama.

Melania's done very little to NOTHING as first-lady. Where'd her cyber-bullying campaign go? Oh that's right, she had to embarrassingly drop that because her husband is the biggest cyber-bully out there, and the optics of HER speaking out against cyber-bullying
