Absolutely true. joshcryer Jul 2016 #55

That is increasingly the case for me. joshcryer Jul 2016 #71

Yes. I feel very sorry for her dem in texas Jul 2016 #52

I shouldn't be astonished by Trumps response. joshcryer Jul 2016 #56

As if she had something better to do than be trumps wife. She can go roll around in gold and cash Person 2713 Jul 2016 #46

What does her being a model or 'half naked" have to do with anything? Joe the Revelator Jul 2016 #59

Somewhere about 8 minutes intoi Melania's speech she did a rickroll. PufPuf23 Jul 2016 #48

Someone put a speech in her hand and she read it. What's to feel sorry for? Squinch Jul 2016 #53

Links to her being 'vapid'? That's the kind of shit I'm talking about. We wouldn't accept that type Joe the Revelator Jul 2016 #65

Gosh, sorry. No. I'm not going to go and find something for you that I read Squinch Jul 2016 #70

So in other words, you called someone vapid, but don't want to back it up. Joe the Revelator Jul 2016 #73

Now you're just being vapid. Squinch Jul 2016 #75

You brought absolutely nothing to the table. Joe the Revelator Jul 2016 #77

And you did? Ain't no muffins in your basket, binky. Squinch Jul 2016 #79

Aside from name calling, do you have anything else? Joe the Revelator Jul 2016 #91

Binky? That qualifies as name calling these days? Squinch Jul 2016 #103

So the answer is 'no' Joe the Revelator Jul 2016 #105

If you need to. Do you have anything else? Squinch Jul 2016 #108

Apparently, you are the only one. louis-t Jul 2016 #58

Seriously? OldHippieChick Jul 2016 #62

Let me cure that: she used her 7 year old son to sell her caviar-based moisturizer muriel_volestrangler Jul 2016 #63

Caviar based moisturizer. How creepy. It's ostentation that is trying too hard to be ostentatious. Squinch Jul 2016 #74

I was going to complain it cost $150 a pot, but then I found a similar product for $300 muriel_volestrangler Jul 2016 #109

When she finds out, she'll raise the price. No sense NOT being the most wasteful, if the purpose of Squinch Jul 2016 #111

No - she is trying to let Trump get his fingers on the nuclear codes Doodley Jul 2016 #64
