Thank God she toned it down and did not wear that - "right boob is winking at ya gown" from the MAGA Lardo New Year's Party.

Don-OLD probably told Melania no porn attire to the Carter funeral. Wear your pilgrim costume so you look kinda bland.

I wish that every photo and portrait of the gruesome twosome would turn into a "Dorian Gray" type effect.

The "I really don't care, do you?" jacket worn by the queen bitch should have had worms and creatures and grotesque distortions all over it when first published. I'd LOVE to paint their portrait they way they truly are and I'd even do it for free. What a deal, right up the fucking moron's alley

Big man, pig man
Ha ha, charade you are
You well heeled big wheel
Ha ha, charade you are
And when your hand is on your heart
You're nearly a good laugh
Almost a joker
With your head down in the pig bin
Saying, "Keep on digging."
Pig stain on your fat chin
What do you hope to find?
When you're down in the pig mine
You're nearly a laugh
You're nearly a laugh
But you're really a cry

Bus stop rat bag
Ha ha, charade you are
You fucked up old hag
Ha ha, charade you are
You radiate cold shafts of broken glass
You're nearly a good laugh
Almost worth a quick grin
You like the feel of steel
You're hot stuff with a hat pin
And good fun with a hand gun
You're nearly a laugh
You're nearly a laugh
But you're really a cry

Hey you Whitehouse
Ha ha, charade you are…..

kissing is not appropriate for the funeral of a former president. Have to agree she seemed a bit weary and haggard looking. Designer clothes are not always a good look. Yippee, four more years of two ugly, soulless creatures. 🫣

Maybe it was another body double.

Trump had a Melania body double at one event.
She didn't look a day over 25 and looked nothing like Melania.
Then Trump started kissing her more than once and she didn't push him away.
So then I was sure it wasn't Melania.

Unless you can explain how wearing a jacket with an insensitive message, the "wrong" dress to a funeral (a black one with a white collar) or even "grifting" via Trump's position impacts public policy, I'm afraid it is true.

The first lady or man sets public policy by being a role model. If you support lawlessness/ fascism, grift etc. and show gross insensitivity, as she clearly has, you are affecting public policy. Those behaviors can also have an effect on public policies that may become part of public rules as well.

Long after Carter's Presidency. She likely only knew of him from what her sugar daddy and his pimp friends said. His life works and spiritual journey were completely divorced from her gold-digging and grifting clique. She came because her handlers said 'no come. no appearance bonus'.
