In reply to the discussion: This Melanie Trump tweet - does she not see the irony? [View all]Doreen
(11,686 posts)16. I have a feeling that what they say about Ivanka's speech being great and acting happy
about getting a picture with Melania is an order given to them by their men. How can Melania encourage them to be successful when she is not far from where they are as far as being respected from her husband. No matter how successful Melania and Ivanka might be it would not surprise them in the least if they saw trump treat either one of them badly because no matter how successful a woman in that country may be she is still under the tight rule of a man and if you really think about their success it is really the mans because they are only doing what they are allowed or told to do.
