Trump's wife posing with gun...Thong and Boots..And they had a problem with Michelle's bare arms?






Well there you have it… He thinks he is King of the World and she poses like she in an auditon for a James Bond movie. The NRA endorsed Trump.. HA. totally classless and they call themselves conservative. Hypocritical right wing trashed our First Lady because she bared her arms differently.

I guess to get millions of voters on the right has proven that all you have to do is bully, threaten violence and have a wife show her ass. So much class...Oh my. I just can’t see these people in the White House.

I suspect most Trump supporters will just ignore it. (I don't give a shit about her, either. I hate Trump and admit it. But I'm not going to pretend to care about her photo shoots in order to press upon society what a terrible example she will be in the white house.)

Meanwhile the biggest trend in jeans for white people for the last 5 years has been to show at least the top of your bare butt crack.

I'm not sure what Melania Trump is trying to be in that photo, but Michelle Obama is a LADY with CLASS.

When Mr. Obama was elected I remember telling my wife that Mrs. Obama was probably going to be regarded as our most stylish First Lady since Jackie Kennedy...except by the RW racists, of course.

I've seen pictures of Mrs. Trump looking genuinely beautiful, but to me this picture of her just looks trashy.

... the right wing & the corporate media are going to be sorry for what they've done and are getting ready to do. This is going to be an X-rated election. People are going to turn off their TVs and go to the beach, go to Europe, go on a road trip through the Rockies, go any effingwhere but to the couch to watch what comes out of that BOX. It'll be so titillating that men will start staying home and mom's and kids will hit the road to the bowling alley.

This shite happens for reasons too numerous to list here, but here are a few: multiple forms of election rigging, delegates/super-delegates, the electoral college, machines that flip the votes or does work correctly at all.

Can you imagine what our country would be like if our elections were not tampered with in any way?

REASON FOR ALERT

This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate.

ALERTER'S COMMENTS

The poster identifies Hillary Clinton as a slut. Not by name, of course, but let's not kid ourselves; the post isn't referring to Sanders or Trump.

Please consider.

JURY RESULTS

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Wed May 25, 2016, 07:43 AM, and the Jury voted 7-0 to HIDE IT.

Juror #1 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: bernie Supporter here. I can't stand Clinton and won't be voting for her here in Florida under any circumstance. Still, this is just a disgusting comment. So was the comment it replied to, which called Trump's wife a slut. Both of these posters should be ashamed of themselves.
Juror #2 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: June 7 can't come soon enough.
Juror #3 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: The word "slut" alone warrants a hide, IMO.
Juror #4 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #5 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #6 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: Horrible post. Hide.
Juror #7 voted to HIDE IT

The latest arms controversy embroiling the White House has nothing to do with the Second Amendment. Instead, it's sprung from criticism about Michelle Obama showing off her toned triceps and biceps in her first official photo as first lady.

The nation's first spouse, who often dons sleeveless attire, dared to show off her limbs in the picture that graces her Web site and was released Sunday.

We're going to have to fight Trump on his own filthy level to emerge victorious.

64. That is international model Melania Knauss according to snopes, from a photo shoot in 1999.

According to Snopes: ""Melania Trump's career as a model would commonly call for her to pose for men's magazine photo shoots as part of her job, but they've been used here as part of an unfair comparison given the age of the photographs and the contexts in which they were taken. Mrs. Obama is depicted posing in her capacity as First Lady, whereas Mrs. Trump is pictured from a time in her life when worked as a model and had yet to marry a man who would later seek the Republican nomination for the 2016 presidential election.""

The dress code at Buck House is a tad more conservative.

That won't work on me (straight female), but I don't doubt that image will play very well indeed with a whole bunch of Trump's target audience.

I'm really going to miss seeing her in that role.

Melania Trump is, physically, a very beautiful woman as well. She won the genetic lottery. But even on a superficial level, she doesn't have anything on Michelle Obama.

I don't see where the "sexy" is in that photo. She's twisted almost to the point of falling on her face and her knees are knocking together making her look like she trying to keep her balance. It's sad really what some women will do to please their husbands.
