Melania Trump says hush money trial constitutes "Election Interference".

Say what, Melania? Your cheating husband had sex with someone NOT YOU 10 years prior, paid her off to keep quiet about it when he ran for POTUS in 2016, and you believe him? You're as oblivious to reality as he is. You deserve your fate. Good Luck to you in collecting.

Melania has had numerous prenups.

It is said she has re-negotiated them on more than one occasion.

She just wants to make sure there is something left for her to re-negotiate.

And that Barron gets some cash.

My FOREVER Response whenever anyone tries to convince me I should care what Melania says about ANYTHING!

"This is evidence that America...and possibly the entire fucking world has not only crashed through the Looking Glass, but we are now using the broken shards to slit our fucking wrists.

Every fiber of my being, from the deepest depths of my soul, to the tips of my male nipples in the frozen-food section at Harris Teeter, knows with a crystalline, pure spar certainty, that I should NOT BE REQUIRED to give ONE-FUCK what this soulless, hell spawn "Netherworld Barbie" has to say about fucking anything!

My intellect, my psyche, my conscience, my decency and grace...all tell me that I shouldn't even be required to know who in the fuck these people are.

I know that these lifeless, grifting, vapid, empty vessels deserve NOT ONE SECOND of my serious thoughts.

These spray-on-tan, Loreal of Bakersfield, plastic, Axe-Body Spray wearing morons SHOULD BE THE MOST FUCKING INSIGNIFICANT PEOPLE WE EVER ENCOUNTER.

Their impact on our lives should have the same effect of a fucking gnat blocking the path of a charging rhino.

I will NEVER forgive fucking Donnie Shit for Brains voting morons for requiring me to take seriously A FUCKING BUNCH OF IGNORANT FUCKSTICKS that should NEVER be taken seriously

This fucking family and their supporters, are like dog-shit stuck in the grooves of your tennis shoes.

This tells you everything you need to know about Melania. She doesn't give a shit that he screws around on her. She only cares that he's able to keep the cash flowing in, and is A-okay with him committing crimes in order for that to happen. She and Donald deserve each other.

Fuck off, Melania. Nobody of any consequence cares what you think about this.

I'm talking about the Stephanie Grisham interview where she says that Melania was devastated when she learned about Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal. (I'm sure there were others.)

Link: https://www.huffpost.com/entry/melania-trump-stormy-daniels_n_66178640e4b011e99abd0ca6

Melania gave birth and cared for her infant son while Chump was out cavorting. Twelve years later Melania is the First Lady and learns about her husband's behavior in the most public and humiliating way. For Melania to turn around now and blame the courts and DoJ for "election interference" makes it sound like Chump's press staff wrote this release, not Melania.

She’s still very much a kindred spirit of TFG—she’s been with him for over two decades, after all.

They may not love each other like a normal couple with empathy and compassion, but they have enough of an “understanding” of shared self-interest for their “marriage” to work—and they have both used one another to their respective advantage, being the soulless narcissists that they are.

That’s my read, anyway.

Her english isn't that good. Remember "Be Best"? That's about her level.

I think she's looking the other way while his campaign (or his lawyers) are writing these releases in her name.
His political career will be over in November, and that's the last we'll hear about her.
