Melania Trump, the most inactive and docile First lady to grace the Whitehouse.

What is she doing in her role as First lady?...how utterly inactive and docile Melania Trump is as First lady... inactive and docile. Is this just a ride for her?

An outsider is forced to ask; why on earth does it matter?
Yes, I appreciate that the United States has become an intensely ritualistic country, and the "First Family" mystique is part of the ritual structure, like cheerleading, but in most other parts of the world the role of the leader's wife is to be a wife.

...
Aside from a few ceremonial activities she hasn't been involed in any political activities and has not rolled out any White House initiatives. That and the fact she couldn't be bothered with the whitehouse for the first number of months. Has been seen arriving to ceremonial activies by herself and has

Melenia has the psychological profile of a previous high class escort. Such a person would shy away from publicity, and be uncomfortable in this role, since they would be conscious of their past, and worried about revelations affecting their image. Donald probably "rescued" her from that career, by taking her in as wife, instead of just paying for services.

nope lol

She's in a very influencial position to make a difference in something and yet she couldn't be bothered.... with anything. Complete waste.

The last REALLY ugly first lady (man?) wouldn't shut up and helped divide people and cause unrest. I think it's probably a good thing that Melania stays in the background - as long as she still makes appearances so we can be reminded how beautiful she is.

I think it might be a leftist thing - the whole Hollywood celebrity and gossip culture. They seem to love it and get upset if there is not some intrigue and entertainment for them to consume.

Must be a rightest thing also after reading the post before this one mentioning Michelle as a man.
So it is okay to pick on Obamas wife but not Trumps?....you are all as bad as each other.
Hypocrites.

I'm sure you all will go after Trump's gold fish next if he had one...

I don't think the press likes her much do you? Something to do with her husband...she could discover the cure for cancer and they would report it as bad, so I would suggest it isn't her...

Pretty stupid comment... but then typically...

Is there actually any evidence of that being true?

How would shying away from the public stop people digging up dirt on her?

Out of sight, out of mind.

a reply to: vonclod

She’s the First Lady.

She may be out of sight, but definitely not out of mind.

Not for those trying to find dirt.

Case in point, this thread.

a reply to: Chadwickus

Sure, this thread, outside of here I haven't really heard her talked about too much lately.
You're right though, she is the first lady so there will always be some interest.
Out of sight, out of mind though..generally works.

Personally. I cant stand trump or his family. I also cant stand the clintons ans rhe idea or Oprah runnung makes me punch myself in the face.

As a non American... i think this 2 political party system needs to change

Who cares?

The position of "first lady" is contrived anyway.

maybe everyone deflecting the fact that if she were to take on traditional first lady roles, she would have no escape from her hubby's habits

she doesn't have any platforms she can speak on and not have the shadow of her husbands words and actions negating everything she says.

paying for sex is illegal in California, maybe she can be an advocate for that, or bullying, or ethics or the environment.

she best just lay low and never open her mouth. i think thats what all those excuses in the first few pages really wanted to say but the gulp is too hard to swallow

There's that name Hogg again in connection with Parkland. At least it is undeniably correct to use the term "First Lady" this time.

a reply to: Southern Guardian

I don't know maybe she is struggling because every time she tries, or even opens her mouth the oxygen thieves on the far left rabidly attack her accent, her speech, her plan, or her desire... heck they even attack the way she dresses.

Maybe because the issues and the facts concern me more.

Why is a woman, who was not elected, minding her own business a concerning issue to you?
