Scottacular @Scottcrates Jan 9Poor Melania, she was so tired after churning butter and feeding the men who were erecting the new barn out back.

(42,036 posts)She looks unwell. Maybe she was sick or coming down with something.
But, I dont really care. She is a terrible person.

(141,926 posts)Maybe she's thinking about her mother, who passed 'recently,' or maybe she's thinking of the upcoming misery we'll ALL suffer soon.

"Amalija Knavs (née Ulčnik; July 9, 1945 January 9, 2024) was an Austrian-born Slovenian-American woman who was the mother of Melania Trump, the First Lady of the United States from 2017 to 2021 as the wife of Donald Trump, the 45th President of the United States.[1][2]"...
Thanks for looking further than I did.

(415 posts)Alice Kramden, please don't take this as disagreement with your sentiment. I think you are correct.
I hope this post merely expresses my disdain for the person who really doesn't care if children are locked in cages.

(11,030 posts)She looks really distressed. Her face is quivering in some videos.
ProudMNDemocrat
(20,981 posts)Almost 10 years have passed since she first made the scene. She is looking a tad haggard in photos I have seen of her from the Carter funeral. Her hairdo makes her look older and tired.
In the photos from NYE at MaL wearing that black dress that nearly exposes her right kidney, she appears to be thicker around the waist and hips. Or perhaps the camera angle is doing that. We know the DonOLD likes his women tall and svelte. Svelte and glamorous so he looks glamorous.

She just got a $40 million deal with Amazon to make some crappy documentary about herself and shell grift even more no doubt.

https://wwd.com/pop-culture/celebrity-news/melania-trump-dress-jimmy-carter-funeral-1236797951/
..."Melania embraced a somber look for the occasion, wearing a black trench coat dress by Valentino with a belted waist and a contrasting and dramatic collar. The collar featured a black and white print of a couple kissing among roses and butterflies. The print was presented in multiple pieces from Valentinos fall 2019 collaboration with Undercover."...(more)

(134,016 posts)never saw a clear image. That was. . .tasteless. ..to say the least. But, given that it is her, not surprising. We still remember her "I Don't Care" jacket.

(11,450 posts)However, she's in a pew with other women - Hillary Clinton, Laura Bush - who are also aging but aging gracefully. Her hair looks like mine on days I'm just planning on staying home and doing some work - unstyled and just pinned up out of the way.
As for channeling the Amish - AFAIK printed fabrics are not often used among the Amish. Aren't they considered vanity? I'm sure Mel's outfit would be.

(1,329 posts)so hes kind of obligated to show up at such events. But being the narcissist that he is, he revels in the opportunity to be present.
Which goes back to Melanias mom death anniversary. I know I am too damn logical, if I were Melanias spouse, would have paid more attention to her than chatting up Obama
