So when is Melania's "news conference" regarding her questionable citizenship status?

Melania Trump will address immigration controversy, Donald Trump says
Updated 8:06 PM ET, Tue August 9, 2016

Fayetteville, North Carolina (CNN)Donald Trump announced Tuesday evening that his wife will hold a news conference "over the next couple of weeks" to address reports that she violated immigration laws when she first came to the U.S.

Trump said his wife would prove that "she came in totally legally."

I personally think that if this doesn't happen, and I don't think it will, it will be because there's some truth to it.

1. When will it happen? I know.. I know!! (waving hand wildly here!)

The same day he releases his tax returns!! Likely a joint appearance together at the press conference!

[Liberal_in_LA]

2. I wondered the same. I don't think it will happen. what is to gain if Trump stays down in the polls

??

[SaschaHM]

3. We're not going to see Melania again until he concedes on Election Night...

and whether he will do that is still a mystery.

[PearliePoo2]

5. Trump will be beyond ugly. And the day after the election...

Melania will likely divorce him.

[CK_John]

9. IMO, she will take him to the cleaners. His adult kids will have a hell of

a fight after Trump goes to the big convention in the sky.

[PearliePoo2]

12. Yes, she got to see him for the despicable creep he is.

She's a trophy on his arm and that is all. ('course she's a liar and a phony also) BUT, there may not be much inheritance left to brawl over after the Russian mob gets theirs. And they WILL.

28. I'm sure Melania knows what she's entitled to in the event of a divorce in her pre-nup with Donald.

You know darned well that people like Trump don't enter into a marriage without a pre-nup agreement.

30. I wonder if he's abusing her, either physically, verbally, or both.

His ex-wife Ivana made allegations suggesting abuse, if I recall. And a former employee of Trump's said that Ivana spent 90% of her time trying not to "anger" him.

It seems like Melania never speaks or makes an appearance unless it's in a very controlled setting. I wonder if she's afraid of incurring his wrath, because she seems unable to relax or be herself in public. I feel bad for her if that's the case; she probably feels trapped.

4. Still waiting on our lovely media interviewing McIvie

Sooooooooooooooooo, answers, NEVER.

[katsy]

6. I know!!!!!

When our FLOTUS Michele writes melania's speech

[trueblue2007]

7. DEPORT HER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[StrictlyRockers]

22. And build a wall around Slovenia!

And make the Slovenians pay for it!!!!11!!

8. Does not really matter if she holds a news conference

or not to me . If /when she does they probably figure it will be worth 2 to 3 days news . All she has to do is release her paperwork
immigration papers / which one she had also her citizen paper work . If she really wants to her college papers , also since Don is not going to release his taxes how about hers ?

[Hortensis]

11. Agree. But I'd just as soon leave her alone. She's not driving

his behavior, but I suspect he has had almost everything to say about what we've seen and heard of her. She seems like a not especially admirable but very ordinary person in way over her head. I could care less if her papers are in order, and my bleeding heart would spare her a defensive press conference.

[Kathy M]

17. Agree she seems rehearsed ...... I am sure he knows everything that she will say .

On one hand I do say leave her alone ... on the other hand her husband is running for President , as long as there are
questions I do not think she completely innocent and she should only reply by releasing her papers no news conference . Their son I feel for , he is just a kid mixed up in the middle of all this right now . Would be nice if she made a clean break of charade / marriage so the kid would have a chance to be normal .

[Hortensis]

18. Agree. She's part of it, and if tackling her

could help take down more bad GOP legislators with Trump I'd have to be all behind it. Just releasing her papers sounds good to me too, though.

I wonder how much the boy sees. Trump's gone most of the time, of course, probably always was. He looks a lot like his dad, and Melania calls him "Little Donald" because in personality he's supposed to be a lot like him, but that could just be stroking dad. Hope so. A disposition to personality disorder can apparently be inherited, but it's far from a guaranteed thing.

[Kathy M]

21. Lets hope there won 't be another Donald ......

[Hortensis]

23. Well, my guess would be the people who voted for

a mentally disabled man won't make that mistake again -- for another 20 years or so, when they'll have forgotten.


Seriously, at least after this more people will know personality disorders exist. A lot of people had never heard of them. Still haven't.

[Kathy M]

24. Lets hope they do not make that mistake again ......

As soon as you said personality disorder .... Some of the classes I took at Kent branch came flooding back ....... Have been trying
to put a finger on what is wrong and this fits very well . Thanks for the reminder .

[Hortensis]

25. Gary Trudeau's one of the few who came right out

and spoke, not of "temperament" or whatever, but of personality disorder. Of course he's an expert. Trump's been a butt of NY humor for decades (since they can't get rid of him, might as well laugh?), and Trudeau's actually put together a new book of 30 years of Doonesbury cartoons featuring Trump. I'd like to see it, but of course in a way we already have. He says Trump's not changed much at all.

[zappaman]

10. Around the same time Assange leaks Trumps tax returns!

[Sanity Claws]

13. I think she is too busy right now

She has had a lot of meetings with her divorce attorneys.

[PearliePoo2]

14. Whatever happens, I don't wish her well.

She made the rounds on TV spouting the "Birther" bullshit and asking for President Obama to release his college transcripts. THAT is especially rich since hers were falsified! Fuck her.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

15. Also, about three months ago Lewandowski said to a Cnn reporter that he would

get him a list of all the people Trump has donated to. Said something like, "Sure, I'll have that to you next week."

[Maru Kitteh]

16. He might shove her out there as a distraction. I can see him doing that.

To take some of the heat off of his tail.

But that being said - I have exactly NO sympathy for her. Those two deserve each other. Richly, if you will pardon the pun.

[sellitman]

19. This isn't a problem

He can always get another wife. That is one of his keen talents.

[Eugene]

20. November 9th?

Starting to sound like Trump's "proof" that Barack Obama wasn't born in Hawaii.

[Funtatlaguy]

26. I bet she divorces him after November.

Think she was very angry that she was thrown under the bus after her convention speech, then the nude lesbian Pix, and now the immigration thing.
She doesn't need this shit.
Just take as much money as she can and move back to Europe wit their son.

[NurseJackie]

27. Kick - her - out! Kick - her - out!

PS: There will never be a Melania Trump news conference. At most, a representative will read a prepared statement, but she won't be the one speaking, and there will definitely not be a Q&A session.

[relayerbob]

29. Right after

Manafort's conviction

[SummerSnow]

31. It's taking so long cause for one she doesn't want to do it and two, they are practicing

with her what to say...rehears rehearse rehearse.

[drray23]

32. right now its the least of Trump's problems

With the manafort debacle, I do not think Melania will go and talk about her immigration status.
In fact, she may need her dual citizenship to be able to flee the US after november 8th. At the rate its going, Trump and Manafort may also require asylum from Putin...

[NCTraveler]

33. I don't think she is willing to do what Trump wants her to do.

I can't imaging the conversations.
