I posted this elsewhere, but also posting it here:
Senators have sought admission and were turned away. Congressman what to know what was happening in their district to be summerly dismissed. The press was as usual shunned like lepers and denounced as the enemy of the new "Truth". How was it that Malania were greeted with open arms. The gates magically opened and the Red Carpet was rolled out as the administration's peons knelt in admiration. The crass reporters of Fake News attempted to record the glorious occasion but were met with threats of imprisonment.
People stared and photographers recorded the mysterious message boldly inscribed on Malania's combat jacket: I REALLY DON'T CARE. DO YOU? Some gasped at what appeared to be approval of the separation children, even babes in arms. Others vainly searched for any justified explanation while the Republican base applauded the bold move to insulated their beloved nation from the contamination of what their leader called infestation of vermin.
The mystery of the message she bore was concocted in Washington as a secret code that would prevent anyone disguised as Malania from penetrating the baby prisons. It was carefully encrypted and sent ahead with a messenger who would be the sole person to authorize entry. It was inspired by the most appropriate tale of "Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves" who gained entry into thieves den when he discovered the secret password. That was the meaning of the cryptic message that would confound the enemy and admit only her to the Thieves Den of Stolen Children who were being held as ransom. Meanwhile their cohorts in crime in Washington were using their leverage to force the Democrats into submission to their demands. It was, they had thought a perfect scheme until some in their evil party of schemers rebelled and sought more concessions ending is a vicious knife fight between the thieves. Desperately banging the gavel until it broke, the session ended with a stalemate.
The story will be continued in the next installment. Stay tuned.
Mystery Solved!!!!!

(3,515 posts)That is the essential quality missing in the Trump family.
They pretend to have compassion when it serves their purposes, but they lack real compassion for those who are truly weak and needy.
That is why Trump himself can think up all the pejorative adjectives he uses on those who disagree with or displease him.
Instead of leading by example and by persuasion and logic, Trump leads by insult and injury. That is how he "governs."
We see this with the refugees.
We saw this with the leaders of other countries, especially Angela Merkel (maybe because she is a woman?).
We saw this during the debates, especially the debates among Republican candidates.
And unfortunately, Trump is demonstrating a "leadership style" that is respected and revered in our business community. Could that "leadership style" of insult and injury be part of the reason that our products don't always compete as they should in the world? Does it close our culture to others? Is it a form of arrogance? Is it self-defeating? I think so.
We need to value and develop a culture of compassion and caring. We aren't doing that.

(480 posts)I think this was a message for her hubby and his cronies.
Melania joined the other first ladies in condemning the crass use of children as hostages so Cheeto could fund his wall, etc.
I don't think Melania is anything more than a top shelf gold digger. But that said I don't think she ever signed on to be in the first lady fishbowl. And she clearly hasn't enjoyed the daily humiliations that go along with the title.
Trump and company were using Melania for damage control, an attempt to put something akin to a human face on this sociopathy.
I think the jacket was her way of saying to Trump 'Use me at your own risk' or 'leave me out of this shit.'
