58. Well, I feel for her...

and while what goes on in their marriage is none of our business, I can't help but feel compassion for her and her young son. I think that's why she liked Michelle Obama so much, because she had found a kindred soul who was genuinely kind to her for just being her--not Trump's wife. I imagine Michelle was warm, welcoming, and personable, just like a friend would be. Melania probably needed that feeling of genuine kindness. She doesn't seem to have any friends and that can get REAL lonely, especially being married to someone like Trump. I really feel for her...
