when the woman is all about her looks. She prides herself on that more than anything else.

I often think it is harder for beautiful women to age. If you are a homely woman, it's not so much worse and you can be a lot happier than the beauties must be to see it all fade.

Because society has made it about women's looks. Trump has said that if a woman is flat chested it is hard for her to be a ten. Saying it is about a bad boob job is still saying it is about the way her boob job LOOKS and therefore the way she looks. Not cool at all.

I saw it only because MSNBC covered it when I wanted to watch Chris Hayes, Rachel Maddow and Lawrence McDonnell. She looked like she wanted to straight-arm him. She obviously didn't want his face to touch hers.

He probably has terrible breath and he looked like he might be sweating. For the first time I actually felt for her. Even the strange dress she wore screamed don't come anywhere close to me.

He seemed clueless. He crushed her dress by clutching her tightly to him and kept making moves that he wanted to have her dancing cheek to cheek. She danced leaning away from his face.

Probably didn't want to get his make-up on her face.

President Trump himself is a fast-food aficionado -- he told CNN's Anderson Cooper at a CNN town hall last February that he loves McDonald's.
"A fish delight sometimes, right? The Big Macs are great. The Quarter Pounder. It's great stuff."

President Barack Obama famously snacked on almonds in the White House. The New York Times reports that his successor prefers Doritos and Lays potato chips.

25. This "Family" is the least affectionate couple I've ever seen.
Sat Jan 21, 2017, 03:56 PM
Jan 2017

The sons shake their father's hand when they greet each other. (It happened at each of the debates.) Yesterday after the Inauguration Ceremony, the Mrs stuck her cheek way out in a rather awkward way for him to plant a likewise forced kiss on her well made up cheek. Later, the First Couple during their First Dance at the inauguration had enough distance between them to drive a truck through. It all seemed so forced and pretentious.

I wonder how long it takes before he's going home to Trump Tower every night at taxpayer's expense, out of boredom. I can't see him wandering around the White house during the week, alone every evening, after all the WH staff has left for the day with only the Household staff and his Twitter Account to talk to. And I don't think Melania will ever come to live permanently at the WH. It's just beneath them, especially after those Kenyan's lived there. I don't see him lasting a full term out of boredom. He needs constant attention and stroking of his fragile ego so unless he plans on taking Air Force 1 and doing daily rallies across the nation, I don't know what he will do. I think he'll go stir crazy. He's not smart enough to actually do the job he ran for and was elected to do, because that's too much like work. Nor does he like to do those mundane things like READING or LISTENING to those loathesome Daily Briefings and other reports that Obama used to do, late in the evenings after the family had gone to bed. So he'll probably just delegate all his daily duties to Pence, and spend his evenings watching porn.
