"I'll give her a week."

Seven months before an alleged tryst with porn star Stormy Daniels, Donald Trump told radio host Howard Stern that he would give his pregnant wife, Melania, a couple of days — or maybe a week — to regain her model figure after giving birth.

“You know, Howard, she’s got the kind of a body and makeup where, about one day after the baby, it’s going to be the same as it was before,” Trump said during an appearance on Stern’s show on Dec. 7, 2005.

“You’re giving her one day?” Stern asked.

“One or two,” Trump replied.

Moments later, the future president reconsidered. “I think I’ll give her a week,” he said. “No, I’ll give her a week.”

I try to imagine what we'll look like after Mueller clears the mob influence from our lives.

It can go on from there, and need not be limited to English.

Republican family values. Wasn't this scumbag the head speaker at the value voters summit?

So that the despicable thing someone said can always be walked back as "just a joke" for outsiders. But the people the joke is directed at know better, and they've been put on notice.

"Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them." Apparently it's been around for many years.

First of all, he is physically repulsive. Who does he think he is demanding perfection of any woman, especially the woman who just gave birth to his child. Secondly, why should he care what she looks like when he's sleeping around with porn models? It's all about his ego. He needs to be SEEN with someone who LOOKS like a model even though every rational person on earth understands that most women who have just given birth need some time to "get their figure back".

God, he just makes me want to vomit!

He was predicting that based on her "model figure".

He's a vile creature, but this seems to be unrelated to his vileness.
