(3,921 posts)40. She has free will/agency, and chose her path.
I agree we shouldn't judge her on looks/hotness, has nothing to do with anything, as many women of the younger generations like to show off their looks/swag.
The issue is her character.
She's a craven opportunist who married/stands by a ruthlessly corrupt fascist (he never hid this fact), and is likely a fascist herself.
The fact that she plays the role of the idealized and innocent white wife shouldn't absolve her of agency.

Melania is really pissed. Apparently Trump's hat maker couldn't even spell FLOUTS correctly.

No, I can't either, and so much for all the people who think we should be giving her a pass.

I think Melania is smarter than she looks. We shouldn't judge people by their looks.

?? No, the obvious point was that Melania is an adult woman with free will. That's obvious.
