I took it to mean that Melania wouldn't have anything interesting to say on a talk show. Melania does come off as airheaded.

Nothing interesting to say on a talk show?
The new FLOTUS?

Chelsea is a c-list celebrity who without a camera in her face gets no paycheck. Controversy and conflict out of the mouth of Handler spells Cha- Ching.

She's a stand up comedian.

You know, live shows. Camera optional

The reason Chelsea Handler said that is quite simple - she is intimidated by the hotness and intelligence of the First Lady, so, . . .

Chelsea intimidated?

LOL LOL LOL LOL

One of the lessons I've learned in this life: Everyone had something important for you to hear. You'll never know what that was if you didn't have the patience to 'listen'.

I was immensely successful in my last job ... way more successful than any of my peers, because it's rude to dismiss someone who struggles to communicate with you in YOUR language. Once you 'win these people over' they are a persistent force that bolsters you ... as you increase their relevance in day-to-day affairs.

Deaf people ... same category.

As far as I know she's got a show on Netflix and isn't on tour right now so no, I'd say she needs the cameras.

Cameras and twitter, rather.

Which would you choose? Your own TV show or Stand Up tour?

She's a stand up comedian whether on tour or not.

I followed her years ago.

K well when you have a tv show you need cameras right? Whether you're also a comedian or not is pretty immaterial to that.

Totally, she knows that she cannot measure up to Melania in any category related to being a female.....so best send out a dog whistle to the Trump haters by way of a subtle dig at Melanias intelligence.

Why can't she just be partisan?

Seems like the most obvious reason.

Watching Trump sexually harass his daughter was equal to the sexual harassment of every woman watching. Yes, women have the right to call out sexual harassment when they see it, whether or not the victim is aware of their rights or not.

Grabbing a woman's [SNIP] without consent is sexual harassment/assault, whether the woman being assaulted feels guilty or thinks "she asked for it, or not!. It's NEVER OKAY! Normalizing and/or ignoring that kind of behavior potentially traumatizes all women!

Yes, we all have the right to call out sexual harassment when we see it, in fact we have a duty. We don't walk by someone being sexually assaulted, thinking, "meh, maybe she's okay with it!"

Then why are there no weekly protests about the TSA?

Your language and thought processes seem to match Chelsea's perfectly.

I find that ridiculous and probably a man's point of view. Why would I be jealous of Melania? I can't think of one reason.

Measure up? Measure up to what? Chelsea is an independent, financially successful comedian and author. And she doesn't have to kowtow to any Narcissistic male.

I wouldn't be in Melania's shoes for anything.

I don't hate Trump. I think he's a fascinating character. I've read his books (even if he didn't write them).

However, I do not support him in the position of president.

That's a pretty weak argument.

Melania's silence while Trump was trashing women along the campaign trail, including sexually harassing his own daughter in public several times and then saying that women who are sexually harassed in the work place should look for another career, makes her an "enabler". That's one reason she may be shunned by feminist like Chelsea Handler.

. Pfft ... sexually harrased his daughter because he kissed her on the cheek ? When does this ridiculousness end 🙄

There are rare occasions where I find the need to expose my tender underbelly to ATS.

Thanks for your reply. It means a lot.

It's been my experience...that when a woman says "I'm not jealous of that woman"...She's jealous.

Amiright, guys?...(you KNOW I am)
