FLOTUS Melania Trump? [View all]

She hasn’t been seen in public going on 17 days now.

Is she seriously ill, recovering from cosmetic surgery, in rehab?

Or, should the American people accept the explanation that a minor medical procedure has her sequestered for over two weeks? Are we owed anything at all concerning the status of the First Lady?

I’m not implying something sinister is going on, but I do know that I don’t believe a single word that comes out of Donald Trump’s mouth...about ANYTHING.
