1. Well, at least Melania isn't whinnying about it, like a certain...

Manchild, who couldn’t take that news personally before crying on Twitter.

2. Yet

I'd bet that she IS whining, but probably only to her family. I don't think she's all that bright, but I think she learned her lesson about speaking out to anyone outside her VERY small circle of trust.

4. Trump thinks he ought to be woman of the year too?

Now that is an ego!

3. I have no faith in gullop nor the hill . . ..

especially after reading that shitty display of Rasmussen. Mrs. Obama is a statute of integrity, enough said.

5. They are all deserving as is

RBG and I would like to add Savannah Guthrie as an honorable mention. Crazy Uncle line was genius.

6. I'm reading her book, Becoming, right now, and it's amazing.

I honestly thought it would be ok, a pleasant read. But it's way more than that. I won't bore anyone with details, but I have totally connected with her on several levels she's so real in the book.

11. I read it last summer and also

felt a connection when reading it, except that she is a far more accomplished person than I am.
