A soft image of Melania



She is holding the hand of the first lady of Israel. No, not the wife of Netanyahu who, I think, is not beloved in Israel and has her own scandals. But the wife of the president of the country - a ceremonial title.

The photos of Rivlin, who uses an oxygen concentrator, and Trump were shared across social media, with commentators lauding the two women for their demeanor.

She knows who she's married to. I have no sympathy for the Drumpf voters, why would I have ANY compassion towards her?

I truly hope she's miserable, and stays that way. But she's probably just fine, living her high class lifestyle.

She's got nothing in between the ears, except her looks, which is what Drumpf married her for.

where I feel sorry for her. Good ol' fashion gold digging took on a whole other world. I honestly think she is constantly put down and threatened if she "messes up" his image. Look how he treats others...I can only imagine what he's doing to her in private.

Honestly, I like the belts. Michelle wore them a lot for the first four years in office and I followed suit.

Usually when individuals want to run for office, especially for the highest office in the land, they first discuss it with their family. Especially the spouse. I am sure that with Donny, he just told her. And, like the rest of us, thought that it was another indulgence of him that would soon disappear. Fooled all of us.

I am not a fashionista but I think that for tall women, like Michelle and Melania, it breaks the image and perhaps softens it. On the other hand, short women are advised, I think, not to break the image but to create one fluid one.

ever since I read here that every day she scans the news for unflattering reports on her husband and presents them to him daily. When she knows it will totally piss him off. That's passive-aggression raised to nosebleed level.

Maybe she's hoping for a heart attack.

the wardrobe and look of the first lady of Israel?

Skirts, depending on the material, do THAT when you sit a lot.

came to visit President Rivlin. When the two women were walking together, Nehama Rivlin told Melania that she had to walk slowly because of her breathing problem. And Melania told her not to worry, that they would walk at Mrs. Rivlin's pace and hen held her hand.

I thought this is a contrast of when appendage tried to grab Melania's hand at the tarmac and she brushed him off.
