It appears to me that Melania looks like a victim of domestic violence

Gaunt face
Her expression reflecting defeat
Her hair hastily pulled together
Her eyes look dead

While I don't especially have sympathy for her, I have seen this face before: my mother.

I have plenty of stories of “housewives” who dressed up and visited apartments and hotels during the day. One story involved a friend’s wife who is a retired cheerleader for a professional sports team. He thought he won the lottery when she attached herself to him. She’s 6’1”, and you can imagine the rest. He found out by pure happenstance that she was servicing several wealthy men, when he stopped at a store and the owner recognized the last name on the charge card. He asked if the customer was related and the adventure began.

After Trump was snubbed and ignored by her repeatedly, esp during his first term, maybe he told her something "special" that he has planned for her now that he is about to take office.......

She's not even going to be living with him in the White House, and she's just going through the motions at this point. And, doing so half-assedly.

Melanie isn’t the most sympathetic of women, to be sure, but no woman, of any station, at any place, at any time should be subjected to the degradation of domestic violence.

Any man who brags about sexually assaulting women is an abuser. No wonder she put as much physical distance between them as she can, when she can.

65. I bet they don't spend enough time in the same room to call her a victim of domestic violence.

Or even the same state. She made her bed, now she has to lay in it. I bet she never bargained for the spotlight though. Thought she could just coast along for a few years until he croaks, then she will have what she always wanted………the $$$. I also bet she will be sadly mistaken when that time comes. I am sure she has it in writing, but with him nothing is set in stone. She is probably in for a rude awakening that can’t come fast enough.

He's all about himself, and she pretty much minds her own business.

She looks frowzy in this picture - unkempt.

73. Her hairstyle looks bad from this angle. She's wearing a bun. It's tight and some hairs came lose.

Then combined with that high collar, she looks like a puritan.

Some of y'all give this chick too much damn credit and sympathy.

She is just as vile as he is, remember when she accused President Obama of not being a citizen? You must have forgot about that?

She is not worth any sympathy.

Malaria will soon be planted in that sand trap in the Trump National Golf Course in Bedminister, N.J. alongside and next to Ivana. Ivana had a $34 million dollar estate and just look at the hole she ended up in! Malaria well knows her fate.

She is not happy to be First Lady again. Her look was her protest.

I think she would kick his ass in a fight. She's around 26 years younger and in far better shape.

Because I wouldn’t want Donald killed by his wife in a domestic violence situation.

Then we would have to listen 24X7 about how Donald was victimized by Melania, and that he was killed by her when he tried to successfully beat her in one of his rages.

Then the Evangelical Christians will be crowing about how it is the wife’s duty to submit to beatings and thus Trump is the victim.

The GOP will rail against immigrants killing good rich, white American men who just happened to wed foreign women for their looks.

There then will be an effort to further strip rights away from women in America probably led by the female-protector Vance.

I won’t even comment on the possible State funeral that would be held for our former crime-boss President, held at a Honey-Bucket Headquarters with for-pay honey-buckets outside for public use.

Putin will speak at the State funeral about his mentee Donald and the Bigly work he was doing on Russia’s behalf.

Finally, Melania will get away with it - because the MSM won’t want to post anything negative about their crime-boss.

Melania will go on with her life - marrying another rich white man, probably a Senator, either Lyndsay, McConnell or Scott, and live a happily ever after sex free life.

A guy can dream.

99. Who would abuse her? The Great Orange One isn't going to lift a finger to do it. Too much work.

She's always looked gaunt and messy hair is probably the style of the day among the women who can afford $5,000 blouses and Hermes handbags. She doesn't want to be there, she doesn't want to be First Lady again. I doubt she feels the need to look like anything.

I think most compassionate people, including us, would have understood her absence. Michelle Obama wasn’t there, for reasons unknown. She also lost her mother this past year. Just pointing out facts without going into theory.

However, Melania’s outfit was truly trashy.

just business to her, (she must be getting money for doing appearances) they both hate or dislike each other. He's such an ass like he's so disinterested, just pure evil. Wait until his time comes, we will be celebrating the end of his destruction.
