At youth opioid awareness event in Baltimore for a speech to attendees mostly of high school and middle school age, @FLOTUS was loudly booed upon introduction. Talking continued throughout her five minute remarks.

In my three years covering @FLOTUS at events, that was the worst booing she has received at a public event where she has given solo remarks.

It might BeBest if she just stays home...

(6,699 posts)It is seriously a parody and she should be booed every time she's in public.
Bernardo de La Paz
(48,988 posts)She doesn't care, really. She's just trying to burnish her image and do "something". She has Barron and her millions and a separate bedroom.

(9,760 posts)she certainly would not have been FLOTUS, because her husband could not have been elected. If he had been and the pix came out later, Rs would probably have tried to impeach him. The hypocrisy is mind-boggling.

maxsolomon
(33,310 posts)She didn't want to be FLOTUS, she doesn't enjoy it, and she seems miserable all the time. His omni-directional Gaslighting abuse of everything that is not Donald Trump has been visited on her to the point that she has to be psychologically battered. The public humiliation he so richly deserves get visited on her instead.
OTOH, she enabled all of this and continues to participate.
Why? IDK, maybe because of a pre-nup and Barron.
When he dies (he will die, sooner or later, trust me), I suppose that's when we'll see the real Melania. She's going to stay till then; she wants what she's owed.

(33,310 posts)His Narcissism is pathological and boundless; he truly thinks he knows how things should work.
Melania probably thought it was more bullshit, but should have taken him at his word (and divorced him immediately after Barron was born).
Farmer-Rick
(10,154 posts)Then I don't feel sorry for her. After all she really doesn't care about the orange mass caging babies.
I did feel sorry for her except she plagerised Michelle's speech, Michelle's first lady program and pretends not to be a Slovenian sex worker with lies about her education and speaking abilities. She uses first grader slogans and she doesn't care about babies being caged.
She's as awful as the wannabe facist dictator she has sex with.
maxsolomon
(33,310 posts)Part of me feels like that, but also that she's been abused by him.
the Gaslighting is real.

(33,310 posts)There's racists, and there are RACISTS. Melania is definitely a minor player.
I recognize she supported her husband on the Birther crap. She may be in on the con, or she may sincerely believe that horseshit; I don't have any way to tell. In a lot of ways, Melania is a sphinx; no one really sees her emotions or thoughts. She is NOT a relaxed, open personality.
Again, she is having to take the heat that TRUMP deserves. He's only experienced what the hoi polloi think of him twice: the WS game and the MMA event.
Aquaria
(1,076 posts)She wore that jacket to go check out brown kids held in concentration camps--we have to stop calling them cages, and call them what they are: CONCENTRATION CAMPS.
And she didn't care, because what mattered to her more than those kids in CONCENTRATION CAMPS was getting in a dig at the press that hurt her worthless fee-fees.
No decent human being ever does something so disgusting and hateful as that. Only a scumbag racist does.
Face it: She's as vicious of a racist as her traitor spouse is.
stonecutter357
(12,695 posts)Aquaria
(1,076 posts)Because she's as much of narcissistic racist trash as her worthless spouse is.

Or, she wasn't elected to anything. She could have said "no" to flotus duties.

(2,849 posts)She's married to that thuggish piece of shit for the money. I hope she never gets it, and instead ends up in the pen with the rest of them.
Trumps for Prison 2020!
LanternWaste
(37,748 posts)I simply don't think she has the breadth of wisdom to realize how bad she looks to the American people, or that what she says is at best vapid and without substance. Her perspective is effectively narrowed by her own limitations as well as those placed upon her by the role she so poorly chose many years ago.
maxsolomon
(33,310 posts)The milieu she's been in since she immigrated from Slovenia is limited at best; outside of NYC, Florida, and campaign rallies, where has she been? She knows nothing about this nation except privileged spaces and the racist bullshit her husband and his buddies spew.
The best thing I can tell that she's done is keep that asshole at some distance from Barron.

dewsgirl
(14,961 posts)booed by kids. I said, I love it delicious.😋this poster then said, it's disrespectful. I am now wondering where they have been the last few years. If they go low we go high, is no longer an option.
I hope you have a Happy Thanksgiving Pigman.🦃
BigmanPigman
(51,584 posts)I would have found a way to reward them (in a subtle way of course, as to not offend anyone/parent who would say it was disrespectful). That is the sort of thing I did in my classroom, like not even telling the kids that Bush was the POTUS when we learned and celebrated Presidents' Day. When Clinton and Obama were in office my kids definitely knew who they were and respected them. It was easy with first graders, but still do-able with 6th graders.
I learned a lot as a teacher. One thing was that there were likely no turkeys at the first couple of Thanksgivings. They had a surplus of lobsters and seafood (I prefer that myself). You have a Happy T-Day too!

(51,584 posts)(they voted anonymously on blank paper, their own issues, and they did the tallying, etc.) It was a reading, writing, math and civics lesson all in one. I also made the classroom FAIR. Kids, and I, really value "fairness" and I drilled that into everything in my classroom since I was in control of my classroom. I wish I could do it with the country and world...very frustrating! I hope they remember these things as they get older.
dewsgirl
(14,961 posts)always remember. I will always cherish my memories of the couple teachers that really made a difference in my life. I think you are likely one of those teachers.
BigmanPigman
(51,584 posts)even though they are now in their twenties, and I still remember them! That surprises them the most.

(14,961 posts)very sweet.
As we are writing I am watching his rally, because apparently I'm a sadist. They are really shoving the judges down our throats.
BigmanPigman
(51,584 posts)That would put me over the edge and I am already ill to begin with.
dewsgirl
(14,961 posts)If Chris Hayes or Maddow were on, I certainly wouldn't be watching. I usually just check the fact checkers timelines in Twitter, but they aren't there tonight. I think this is the first rally, I have watched live in years.
Aquaria
(1,076 posts)But I know I wouldn't have appreciated an idiot school forcing me into a stupid assembly to listen to a half-witted racist tramp married to the worst being ever vomited into existence. She's so repulsive to me that I would have preferred being in class than listening to her stupid blathering for even one second.
Which is saying something, because I hated every second I spent in K-12 school.
And don't even get me started on how ticked off I would have been to listen to this cut-rate call girl mangling the English language because she's too stupid and lazy to learn how to speak it properly. I call fricking BULLSHIT that this liar knows five languages. As a foreign language major, I know plenty of people who speak that many languages and not a single one of them sounds as sloppy and idiotic as this ignorant radish on legs does--in ANY of the languages they speak.

I tend to think that Melanie takes a lot of *medications*. I noticed that at the turkey pardoning she was breathing weird too.
