She was noticeably absent throughout the entire campaign until the last few days of their effort. I suspect she's not returning to DC.

I believe her plan was always to hang around until he went to prison, and then take over all the money for herself. Now we’ve literally blown our chance to send him to prison, and she’s stuck with him forever.

33. Melania's mental state:
Wed Nov 13, 2024, 01:33 PM
Nov 2024

We know she is very angry at Trump based on her behavior with him in public.
And we have seen how badly he treats her in some public appearances.

He is also angry at her because he had to pay her to move to DC last time and she made him renegotiate their pre-nuptial.

Melania of all people knew that Trump would never spend one day in jail.
She knows he is a vicious and ruthless psychopath who gets what he wants.

She recently moved to NYC to be with Barron who is going to school there.
So they are separated. They lead separate lives. Trump has girlfriends, etc.

She is probably again making money deals with the Trump people about moving back to DC.

Melania probably has zero intent to divorce Trump.
She is on the federal dole, money and benefits as prior First Lady and wife of current President.
And she can now yank around Trump and his staff about refusing to do any First Lady jobs
without adequate payment.

Trump didn't offer her enough cash to show up.

You know, sexism and misogyny had a huge part in Kamala's loss. It's far past the time to knock it off.

2. Melania's past history is fair game.
3. She and her ilk are in the bedrooms of American women, her bedroom is fair game.
4. Melania wants us to forget her questionable past with Epstein and his pals, she could start acting
like a decent human being.

There are many other words that would have applied.

Not knocking down the people who are on our side.

I grew up in a military family, you don't knock down the people who have your back
and save your lives.

Splitting hairs/playing word games is not productive.

speech. It does not apply to private entities like DU.

Further, this is a DISCUSSION board, you know, where people DISCUSS things and even, shockingly, maybe disagree once in a while?
