And poor Melania. This, almost inconceivably, is a much, much sadder picture than that of her step-daughter and son-in-law, though the meaning of each is equally obvious to the perceptive observer. This is both a confession and a cry for help, this portrait. Her smiling face, botoxed to perfection; her skin, seamlessly tan; her nails, faultless; she is about to chow down on a bowl of the finest jewelled creations.

This woman is in peril! She receives physical nourishment, but her spirit is malnourished! Her spirit dines on meals which cannot be digested! Her smile betrays the fact that this situation is not new, no, but rather is something to which she is well accustomed. A close look at her face, beyond its paralysed foundations, clearly indicates that she is but a second away from breaking silently into tears.

We must make special efforts to monitor First Lady Melania. She needs all our prayers!

I am so confused. Really confused. Like any film there has to be a "bad guy" and damsel in distress type shit. That is how I kind of think of this. She is playing a role, as one can tell, she always has. But why? She was not trapped, but now she is. She can go nowhere for the eternity of her life. No more shopping, no more strolling, no more photo shoots, no more hanging out with what friends she might have. She is trapped, just like her "husband" now is. One can tell she doesn't give a fuck about him.

The easy answer is Russian connections. But as with anything, I do not know. Too many details to absorb, but it is a given that there are some connections. This trump fucker obviously picked people of Russian descent, at least in name. There is a reason for this. And I think we "know" now.

Guy must be removed immediately.

Depending on p.o.v., one was classy the other is trashy ostentatious.

(Though it was long rumored that Jackie and Joe Kennedy Sr. agreed to a financial arrangement in exchange for her not to divorce his son.)

Not sure who is worse: Melania Trump for posing for such a photo or V.F. Editor Graydon Carter for fanning the flames.

Bonus spice: Trump hates Carter. Carter, when at Spy magazine, started the thing of Trump having tiny little hands, and making a habit of calling him a "short-fingered vulgarian."

Just to drive him a little bit crazy, I took to referring to him as a “short-fingered vulgarian” in the pages of Spy magazine. That was more than a quarter of a century ago. To this day, I receive the occasional envelope from Trump. There is always a photo of him — generally a tear sheet from a magazine. On all of them he has circled his hand in gold Sharpie in a valiant effort to highlight the length of his fingers. I almost feel sorry for the poor fellow because, to me, the fingers still look abnormally stubby.


Carter hasn't stopped teasing Trump. Atop the cover of Vanity Fair's holiday issue, Carter's byline appeared next to a provocative headline: “Trump: The year of living short-fingeredly.”

The Quiet Tragedy of Melania Trump


A small act of resistance highlights the public humiliation of America’s could-be First Lady.

October 14, 2016 10:12 am

Melania Trump never exactly warmed up to the role of campaign spouse. She’s been reluctant, reticent at best, and really mostly absent from the trail for much of the last 16 months. And why not? The third Mrs. Trump liked her semi-private life as the wife of a New York real-estate billionaire turned reality star. She flitted around from one gala to another and split her days between the Trumps’ gilded Fifth Avenue penthouse and country home, or flew on private planes to Palm Beach. So it makes sense that she was hesitant when her husband was mulling whether or not to throw his hat in the ring last year. “I said to him, ‘You really need to think, because our family life will change. The three of us will change.’ I know what it takes, traveling and all that stuff,” she told Dujour magazine earlier this year. Once Donald Trump did decide to run, she made it clear that she would “be a mom first,” often sitting out the primary state shuffle that was running her husband and his older children ragged, before the general-election campaign dragged her once again into the national spotlight.

When she did appear, she often remained a quiet presence, behind her poised, more comfortable stepdaughter Ivanka. Her introversion and desire to keep her personal politics private played a role in this. But the fact that Melania seemed to step into controversy without saying much at all certainly could not have encouraged her to be more public. When she did speak at the Republican National Convention, she was lauded for about three seconds before it appeared portions of her speech had been borrowed from a Democratic convention speech delivered by First Lady Michelle Obama eight years earlier. The media pounced on whether or not she had graduated from college with a degree, as an R.N.C. bio and her official Web site had boasted. And then there were questions about her immigration story—claims her husband said there would be a press conference to address.

The press conference never happened. But that’s not to say Melania has been silent. On the contrary, she’s been the subject of one campaign hiccup after another. She threatened to sue a handful of news outlets that published a story insinuating that she had once been an escort for hire, resulting in a round of retractions and apologies. She has been vocal about her immigration status. She issued a statement after tapes leaked last week in which her then new husband is heard talking about going after married women and groping others without their consent. “I hope people will accept his apology, as I have,” she wrote. She turned up to the debate with a so-called hot-pink pussy bow tied around her neck—what some said was a subtle sartorial nod to her husband’s recorded choice of words.

One couldn’t help but feel for Melania as a number of women came forward in the wake of those tapes, alleging they had been sexually assaulted by her husband (claims that Donald vigorously denied), particularly as one surfaced from a People magazine reporter, Natasha Stoynoff, who wrote a detailed account of visiting the Trumps on the occasion of their first wedding anniversary. When a then heavily pregnant Melania went to change, the writer claimed, Donald kissed her and told her they were going to have an affair.

I disagree. Donald would agree with me too, that Melania would look great in pink Chanel. In fact, I would encourage her to wear pink several time a week. :partydance:

That's a thing, I've found. Vain megalos with lots of hair. Can't decide if it is some virility perception thang or the fact that most of these guys settled on their haircuts in the 1970s (I think men tend to keep the cut we have in our late 20s).

Haircut Grounded Clinton While the Price Took Off


By THOMAS L. FRIEDMAN,
Published: May 21, 1993

WASHINGTON, May 20— It may have been the most expensive haircut in history.

Two of Los Angeles International Airport's four runways were shut down for nearly an hour on Tuesday, some incoming flights were delayed and Air Force One sat on the tarmac with engines running -- all so that President Clinton's Beverly Hills hairstylist, Chistophe, could come aboard and give Mr. Clinton a high-price trim before he took off for Washington.

Questions about Mr. Clinton's runway razor cut dominated the White House news briefing today, with the communications director, George Stephanopoulos, scrambling to explain why the populist President tied up one of the country's busiest airports to have his hair trimmed. Everybody Does It

Federal Aviation Administration spokesmen were quoted by The Associated Press as saying that while Air Force One sat on the runway on an indefinite haircut hold, two of the airport's four runways were shut down and some commuter flights scheduled to land were forced to circle instead. The White House insisted, though, that the Secret Service had not sought any special hold on air traffic while the President was getting his locks shorn.

"Everybody has to get their hair cut," Mr. Stephanopoulos said. "I think the President normally gets his hair cut sometime during the week. It happens at different places. As you know, he has a very busy schedule, and he just tries to work it in when he can. That was when we were able to work it in."

And who paid for this haircut?

"The President and his family have a personal services contract with Cristophe to cover things like this," Mr. Stephanopoulos said. "They pay for it. It's for the whole family."

In light of Mr. Clinton's haircut by a stylist to Hollywood stars, Mr. Stephanopoulos was asked whether his boss was still the President of the common man.

"Absolutely," he answered. "And if you look at his economic package, it's a package that's designed to turn this around and to really get some real benefits to middle-class Americans. And that's what's important."
http://www.nytimes.com/1993/05/21/us/ha ... k-off.html

Later debunked, sort of..........

"Air Force One at Los Angeles airport last month.

The runway haircut by Beverly Hills stylist Cristophe became such a metaphor for perceived White House arrogance that the president himself felt compelled to apologize for the reported flight delays.

But the reports were wrong.

"According to Federal Aviation Administration records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, the May 18 haircut caused no significant delays of regularly scheduled passenger flights - no circling planes, no traffic jams on the runways.
Commuter airlines that fly routes reportedly affected by the president's haircut confirmed they have no record of delays that day.

The FAA records, generated by the regional Air Route Traffic Control Center, show that an unscheduled air taxi flight had the only delay attributed to the closure of two runways for an hour in anticipation of Air Force One's departure. The air taxi took off 17 minutes after leaving the gate -- two minutes late, by FAA accounting.

"If you understand the air traffic system, you'd find that statement [that planes were circling] ludicrous," said Fred O'Donnell, an FAA spokesman at the agency's Western-Pacific regional office, which responded to New York Newsday's May 21 request under the freedom of information law.

O'Donnell said that although two runways were closed, traffic was light that afternoon and arriving flights were simply diverted to the two other runways. "It did not cause any problems," he said.

However, an air-traffic controller union official said the runway closings did increase the workload in the control centers. "If you close two runways, you take away 50 percent of the capacity and increase the complexity by 100 percent," said Karl Grundmann, regional vice president for the union."

Meanwhile, Melania moves closer to not moving to The White House (though she's hiring her First Lady staff):


Report: Melania Trump may not move into White House at all


First lady Melania Trump may not move to the White House at any point, Us Weekly reported Wednesday.

"They will reevaluate toward the end of the school year if they will keep this arrangement or if Melania and Barron will move to Washington," a family insider told the publication.

"They could go either way right now. They will ultimately do what's best for Barron."

In November, reports surfaced that the first lady and her 10-year-old son Barron would not move to the White House immediately.

Instead, the two planned to stay in New York City so Barron could finish out the school year.

The source told Us Weekly that although Melania Trump is not in the White House, she has been "actively building her team" since her husband assumed office, including "hiring a chief of staff, a senior adviser and a social secretary, among other key positions."

"While she is a mom first, she is very much embracing the role and responsibilities of first lady," the source said.

When the president was asked last month about whether he was lonely not having his wife in the White House, he said: "No, because I end up working longer. And that's OK."

When asked if he misses his wife, he said no? I don't know about anyone else here, but I've never had a wife who'd've appreciated a public statement to that effect.

Melania's got the goods on Trump. She's got him by the short hairs now - she's not staying in the White House, and Trump hasn't made it to New York yet to see her. I hope someone tracks their time together, because it looks to me as if she made a deal: you stay away from me, and I won't spill the beans.

http://edition.cnn.com/2017/02/01/polit ... index.html

It's been 12 days since the last public sighting of first lady Melania Trump, who had been planning on splitting her time between Washington and New York, where the couple's son, Barron, is completing the school year.

And when a solemn scene unfolded Wednesday afternoon as Trump boarded Marine One to pay his respects to a fallen service member's family in Delaware, he was accompanied by first daughter, Ivanka -- a reminder that she is his closest family in Washington.

Melania Trump's last public appearance was on January 21, when she went to the post-inauguration multi-faith prayer service at Washington's National Cathedral. The next day, which coincided with the couple's 12th wedding anniversary, Melania Trump returned to New York City, Barron in tow.


Of course there has to be also a frisson of incest with this guy.

There is practically nothing not weird about this presidency.
