What didn't he just pat her on the ass on the way out?

her contract only pays off if she pretends to be his happy, contented "wife" Gold diggers gotta dig, so she stays. He stated that she was a "very successful model"" He left out the "lesbian porn" bit, and the "escort" bit, too. What a disgrace, people worldwide can view naked photos of the "first lady" nude, posing with another nude "model" Top models do not have to stoop that low, they get paid to WEAR clothes, not shed 'em.

I've been married 26 years. I honestly cannot remember the last time I shook my husband's hand, if ever. Maybe when we first met, but I don't think so. We kiss and hug a lot and HOLD hands. But not shake hands. I shake hands with people in my business, or when formally introduced to someone. Outside of that, it is just weird and shows utter lack of personal intimacy.

I can't believe he shook her hand like some business partner. Nothing wrong with that technically, but it's just so strange to shake your wife's hand. I'm sure this won't be the last goofy thing he will do.

She got that dark Melania-at-the-inauguration expression and backed away.

I'd imagined that afterwards they were off to the country club in NJ, aka Melania gets to escape to the tower (and her lover?) in NYC.

just another one of his employees. That's the strangest relationship known to humankind.

I think the only reason they're not divorced already is because he's the acting ( and a very poor act it is ) "president" at the moment. I think the minute he resigns, is jailed, or serves out his first and only term, that marriage dissolves faster than sugar in water.

Now in a Democratic administration the media would be speculating 24/7, but since he's a Republican they'll just leave it alone. "Family values" and all that.

she is SO classy, so beautiful. Yeah, right. He once claimed that when he walked into a NY restaurant with her, he saw "grown men cry". He REALLY said that! They were likely plastic surgeons seeing her when her eyes looked oriental, and knew they could do better work.

white trash with money. All the money in the world still can't disguise that fact. That's why Trump's "deplorables" think she's so "classy".

For those that say he was trying to reach over to kiss her as she was walking away, I don't think so. To me, it looks like he leaned over to whisper to her something like "OK, you can go sit over there now." Like, "ok, ok, you've done your part, now scram!"

She always knew who SHE was, but even family members were seen as strangers, and she puzzled over things like seeing her car, in the driveway, (we had taken the keys) and wondering who was parking there. At first it was spotty, but then it became more and more frequent.

and in the case of trump and melania i'm pretty sure they don't spend much time together outside of public appearances so i could see him kind of forgetting her for a moment.
