I wonder what is in their stockings?

1. She doesn't like doing focking Chreesmas decorations anyhow.

Laura Benanti’s “Melania Trump” Is Here to Make America Christmas Again

by Katherine Cusumano
December 21, 2018 5:37 pm
"Melania Trump—as interpreted once again by Laura Benanti on the most recent episode of The Late Show With Stephen Colbert—will be thrilled. In a new sketch, which aired during Thursday night’s Late Show, Benanti sang and danced her way through a scathing holiday-themed satire of the first lady, unable to restrain her delight at the prospect of a Christmas spent alone."

23. This! I'm sure she's hoping she doesn't have to

Do any of this sh$t any longer.

[Cha]

37. lol.. right.. melania is only too happy

for this to be her last Christmas Decorating gig at Our WH.

[lastlib]

49. She isn't the only one!

I think 75 million other Americans (including me, including the REST of DU) are ECSTATIC that it's her last one in OUR White House.

[Cha]

50. Right! It's about 77 Million Votes now but

who's counting? That would be me.. 5 Million more than trump..

That is not chickenfeed.. lol!

It will be a Delightful Joy for FL Jill Biden to be in Charge of that

[bluedigger]

2. She is so fired.

[wcmagumba]

3. If true, this is hilarious....

[MyOwnPeace]

4. About the picture................

Is that to be her escape helicopter?

[The Genealogist]

5. I can hardly wait to see how she does up the place this year.

Her homages to Tim Burton movies are ugly. Maybe this year, instead of traditional Christmas decorations, she'll deck the tree in pages from her divorce filing.

[fierywoman]

8. I'm seeing burnt pine tree skeletons from the fires that ravaged the West Coast.

[The Genealogist]

13. Maybe she can wear her "I really don't care, do u?" while she trims the trees

[Hekate]

31. After the red hellscape along the colonnade, that actually would be perfect

That cheap window-dresser she’s been hiring should be thrilled at the “concept”!

[lunatica]

19. I think she'll use the theme from the movie The Grudge.

There’s more than enough material for any grudge theme right there.

[fierywoman]

54. (Oh!!! I played on the soundtrack of all three Grudges!)

However I'm much too chicken-shit to actually watch them.

[lunatica]

55. You must watch the first one to get the full import of my thought

regarding Melania. But don’t watch it alone! It’s creepy scary! I suspect on the inside Melania is scary creepy like that.

The guys who made the movie were really pressured by the fans to continue doing the grudge movies even though they wanted to move on because it was such a huge hit in Japan.

6. Appears to be fake.

From the bottom of the page: This website is not officially associated with The White House.

Note the URL: https://whitehouse.gov1.info/

From the primary URL: gov1.info

This website was created in 2009 as parody of whitehouse.gov called "not The White House". In 2012, a parody of the NSA website (Domestic Surveillance Directorate) was added. In 2013, 'IC OFF THE RECORD" was created to track the Snowden revelations.

In 2016, "White House Info" was launched providing detailed information about various White House related topics such as White House Tours, Easter Egg Roll, Camp David, and others.

You can also visit my blogs About Camp David and About Site R.

11. Nancy is a senior reporter for Bloomberg.

[Ms. Toad]

20. That doesn't mean the site accurately quotes Melania.

The site linked to by Nancy expressly says it is not an official site - and if you explore further it expressly says it was started as a parody site.

Not something I'd rely on if I were looking for informaiton about what someone in the Trump administration sayd.

[mobeau69]

27. True.

[kst]

40. May or may not be fake, but definitely unofficial.

The official White House web site doesn't say anything about it being the "final" holiday season.

https://www.whitehouse.gov/christmas/

[Ms. Toad]

48. To the extent it purport to be Melania conceding -

it's fake. (And it's pretty slimy to use the white house icon (upper left corner) and name (whitehouse.gov1.info) when it isn't an official site.

Yes, it has disclaimers - but you have to hunt for them in what otherwise appears to be an official site.

7. Backdoor costs extra.

[flibbitygiblets]

39. Thread winner 👆

[LuckyCharms]

45. I don't get it?

I just put up a new back door. It cost the same as my new front door.

[Nevilledog]

46. I'm totally not surprised you don't "get it".

[LuckyCharms]

47. Um...

[Midnight Writer]

10. I take personal umbrage at her use of the word "holiday" instead of CHRISTMAS!

Whose side is she on?

[Tommymac]

17. Not Her Husband's. nt

[marylandblue]

12. That's a great helicopter ornament! I hope she leaves it for the Bidens.

[FSogol]

16. That was the official WH Christmas Ornament in 2019

It honored Eisenhower's Presidency. The helicopter is because he was the 1st President to take flight in one as Presidents.

This year's ornament features JFK.

[marylandblue]

25. Thanks, didn't know about that. Still love it.

[Midnight Writer]

22. Is that the helicopter Trump has put up for sale?

[Liberal In Texas]

38. No. That's a model of Marine 1.

[mobeau69]

14. Final holiday this year.

[bdamomma]

15. She

doesn't want to do "Fucking Krismas decorations!"

[KY_EnviroGuy]

18. Lumps of coal in all Trump stockings this year.

And, Kentucky's governor would be delighted to supply the coal........

[BumRushDaShow]

24. What was wild at that site

was that there were copies of earlier Christmas cards and the signatures caught my attention -



WTF?

[kskiska]

26. Electrocardiogram Results

[BumRushDaShow]

28. And people used to gawk at Jack Lew's sig

[Mr. Evil]

42. LOL!

Seismic activity?

[Ms. Toad]

29. What is the WTF about?

If you're talking about the similarity between signatures, that's been discussed quite a bit already. Am I missing something else?

[BumRushDaShow]

30. Yeah perhaps you are missing that I don't "get into Melania" like some people must do on DU?

So she was rarely worth any discussion as far as I was concerned.

[Ms. Toad]

32. It's popped up as a conversation at least every year when the cards roll out. n/t

[BumRushDaShow]

33. I always received a holiday card from the Obamas every year, all of which I still have

I wouldn't want anything to do with or from this current WH occupant except for their quick exit.

[Marcuse]

43. Polygraph results

[BumRushDaShow]

44. ...

[UTUSN]

34. K&R!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

35. "Facking Kreesmas!!!" nt

[Cha]

36. LOL.. I just texted that to my sister

in North Carolina! "Holy Back Door Concession!"

[Person of Interest]

41. Her statement would qualify as being passive agressive!

[NBachers]

51. Has someone explained to her the difference between Christmas and Halloween?

[LudwigPastorius]

52. She's either hinting that Donald lost the election, or...

"Who geeves a fuck about Chreestmas stuff or decoration?" is official White House policy from now on.

[MyMission]

53. I thought she was angling for irreconcilable differences

as the reason the divorce.

And i got very excited for a moment, then bitter disappointment.
