of aluminum foil, sort of smoothed it out, and wrapped her in it. And looks like she either has on lots of mascara, or false eyelashes. And her hair is getting more blonde each appearance.

Loggers wear these, and they're something you make yourself: you buy a pair of canvas Tin Cloth pants from Filson in Seattle and soak them in molten paraffin for about half an hour. After you get them out and let the wax harden, you roll them around in your hands for a little bit to flake off the excess wax. How you wash them is by spraying them off with a garden hose. They're called tin pants because they're so stiff they sound like crumpled tin foil when you walk.

Maybe Melania heard about tin pants and decided to make herself some, not realizing they're not really made of tin.

Like the Kardashians and Martha Stewart, etc.

But she has no talent, no work ethic, and the Trump brand is toxic.
And being a gold digging Russian agent is not a good look.

She used to always wear dresses when she was with 45. In some ways, what she wore showed that she just doesn't care what 45 or the press thinks.

It’s amusing that she considers herself a leading designer/presenter.

Still, even at her worst, she outshines that sack of shit she’s married to.

By the way - Candace is putting out her new series beginning on Wed “Bride of Kirk” - I’m sure this series will also be taking down Turning Points. Love Reputations taking down Republicans. Candace’s podcast is now as large as Rogan’s, so tens of millions will be watching.
