Melania and Donald together? Creeps me out!

[Nancy Waterman]

Does anyone else find them a totally creepy couple? It always feels to me like she is acting
out the good wife, but really is repulsed. Maybe I am projecting, but I don't think so.

[Nancy Waterman]

1. This started for me

when they were dancing at the Inaugural balls. Ugh!

[Tess49]

14. Started for me several months ago. She looks miserable. If you caught any of the republican

convention, at the end they were all on stage. He kept Melania at arms length. And he groped Ivanka's rear end. Really telling image. Not to mention unsettling.

[lunatica]

40. When they were dancing

She looked like she wanted to straight arm him to keep him away and she kept turning her head away from him and even leaned away a bit. It made me think his breath stinks and she also didn't want to get his orange makeup on her face.

The dress she wore also seemed to scream "don't come near me!"

[onecaliberal]

2. It's not natural. I was watching them in church yesterday, it's all forced compared to Pence

[LastLiberal in PalmSprings]

3. It's why he's followed around by TWO military personnel rather than the traditional one

The first carries the "football" which contains the nuclear launch codes.

The second carries a briefcase full of Viagra.

[rurallib]

7. !

[sheshe2]

8. Now that he has the launch codes...

I doubt he needs the Viagra anymore.

[JudyM]

30. That's gotta be true.

[sheshe2]

32. ;)

[FSogol]

34. Conan O'Brien said the unprecedented extra security was to keep Melania from running away.

[Jack-o-Lantern]

4. She Works Hard (if you get my drift) For The Money.

[w100jmi]

5. I think you are right, I also think they are recently seperated

and thats the reason why she and Barron will not be staying at the white house. I wouldn't be surprised if they get a divorce or he ends up beating on her.

Look at this picture from early 2015 of Trump & Melania. Her smile actually looks genuine. http://www.pictureicon.com/image/melania-trump-2015-images-and-photo-galleries-fameimages-com

[napi21]

6. Awe, I actually believe she's staying in NY till the kid is through school. Let's wait until June

to see if she moves into the WH.

As to The Con and Milania, she always looks to me like she's his daughter, or someone way too young for him.

[mnhtnbb]

11. Maybe she knows he'll be out of office by June, so why move?

[napi21]

12. The only reason I don't want him to leave is that Pence is worse, and if we somehow could bypass

Pence, Ryan is the worst of all!

[nini]

41. I disagree

While I can't stand Pence.. He's not quite and insane as Trump.

Trump is unstable. Pence is just a dick.

[RazzleCat]

29. Yes that is the public statement, and I am fine with it but

[link:

|I also have the gut feeling that Mrs. Trump knows that she will not be accepted at all in DC society. If you watched the Gilmore Girls re-boot think of the Emily scene with the young woman and the DAR interview. I think Mrs. Trump knows that is what persons are thinking of her in DC. edit to add link

[erinlough]

24. Smile genuine, still creepy.

[pnwest]

26. She does seem quite genuine when she smiles, I think

she just has a severe case of resting bitch face. When she's not smiling she looks like a bond villainess plotting to destroy the world.

[astral]

33. I had a problem clicking on that link.

Started to show picture, then a bottom popup and a new tab and some other thing loading I think I escaped unscathed.

[Tess49]

9. I think she can't stand him. No connection between them at all. n/t

[localroger]

10. Oh there are MILLIONS of connections between them.

All of which have a picture of George Washington on them.

Melania has been looking really pained throughout the proceedings, and I think a lot of that is that this Presidential pageant is not what she signed on for. This was not her arrangement with the Donald, and being from Russia she knows what a microscope is about to be focused on everything. I will be really surprised if she returns to DC after the end of the school year. I think her priority is keeping HER son (yeah, he's Donnie's too but maternal instinct is what it is) out of the meat grinder. And she probably knows where enough of the bodies are buried that, despite the prenup, she has some leverage here. Thus Ivanka being "first lady." I don't expect that to be temporary. Melania clearly has no interest in the role.

[Tess49]

13. Absolutely agree. I don't think she'll ever move into the White House. Why would she want to?

The thought of sex with that hideous man probably makes her gag.

[3catwoman3]

15. It certainly makes me gag.

Trump is an argument FOR celibacy.

[Tess49]

18. No kidding! Just ....yuck!

[localroger]

16. More to the point, it made her a lot of money

And of course the Donald is hideous, which is why I think the money is the THING. And this presidential thing does not fall under their arrangement.

[Tess49]

19. Yes it did make her a lot of money, and she probably just wants to stay home with her gold crap.

She'll probably show up for events at the White House. That's about all. I can't see her taking on any platforms as other first ladies have done.

[DawgHouse]

21. She's from Slovenia, not Russia.

I agree that she has no interest in being in the political arena.

[LandrosT]

17. I can barely stand looking at them

Frankly, those two deserve each other.

[Kaleva]

20. She's repulsed by the strong smell of Russian hooker urine.

[DawgHouse]

22. She is a possession to him, that is all.

[potone]

23. They strike me as creepy, too.

I don't think that she wanted to be First Lady. She always looks miserable to me, and he seems closer to Ivanka than to her. The whole family is creepy, except for the youngest son, who always looks miserable, too. Imagine having Trump for a father!

[Buckeye_Democrat]

25. There were parts of the GOP convention when Trump's children were all...

smiling and clapping, but Melania just sat stone-faced.

It was after her plagiarism was uncovered, so maybe that was part of it? I think she's just not comfortable around them except for Barron.

[kennetha]

27. They probably regard her as little more than a gold digger

And then she goes and has Donald's child. That upsets their inheritance somewhat I bet. It's like the emperors of old and their succession of wives and struggles over whose child would be named they imperial successor. That kind of stuff led to lot of intrigue, including lots of mysterious and untimely deaths.

[JudyM]

31. Eric always looks uncomfortable/out of place.

[hamsterjill]

35. He looks like a serial killer to me.

Yes, I know. But I'm being honest. That's what I think of when I see his face. Yuck!

[Mike Nelson]

28. She is...

...very well paid.

[logosoco]

36. I can't really see her eyes!

That always makes me suspicious of a person. With Bu$h and Cheney you could see the evil in their eyes. Her facial expression always looks superficial. Or like she is trying to remember something but can't quite get to it in her mind.

On a similar note: I am NOT a fashion oriented person. My entire wardrobe comes from rummage sales and thrift stores. Some clothes I wear I have had for 10+ years. On inauguration day, in WINTER on the EAST coast why was she wearing baby blue? Michelle had on a nice winter color. Light Blue is for spring time!!

This is petty compared to all the other issues, but I had to get that off my chest!

[spiderpig]

38. Maybe she's a secret Democrat.

(baby blue)

[skypilot]

37. I'm hoping...

...that she files for divorce and then goes on "The View" to tell everyone what a pig he is.

[lunatica]

39. I think she knows he has bad breath
