Again, agree to disagree. All of the things you raise are reasons to criticise her about those things, but not a reason to take satisfaction in the fact that two different women have now given national interviews detailing their affairs with her husband while she was pregnant.

I’m old enough to have lived through that as a young woman and it was horrifying to watch then and the fact that Hillary was humiliated for less is not in my mind a reason to find this ok. Just to be clear, by ‘this’, I mean this article as well, not just that Melania was asked. She was asked, she isn’t going to…

She didn’t say she didn’t watch it because she was too busy being a mom. The writer of this article made that up, fyi. She said she is focussed on being a mom and enjoying spring break [which is where she is right now with her 11 year old son]. Pretty much any spouse who is a parent says that they are focussed on…

She didn’t say she was too busy. You realise that, right? You’ve taken the editorialising of this article and replaced what was actually said in the response with it?

I will say that if the McDougall interview hadn’t already aired (with no allegations of threatening behaviour and instead a description of a real months’ long affair with Trump allegedly telling her he loved her), if Stormy Daniels hadn’t already hinted that she has photos and texts that she was maybe going to show…

I would say it’s a response worthy of the question : )

Does McDougall make any allegations about being threatened? She spoke on CNN about how she was in love with Trump, in a relationship with him for nearly a year. She voted for Trump and said he was a sweet, caring man. Her beef is with the National Enquirer. I really don’t see what you expect Melania to say about that.

Her bullshit response being what exactly? That she didn’t watch it? That she’s enjoying being on spring break with her son? What exactly would be a non-bullshit public response that would satisfy you?

Yep, agreed 100%. Not the biggest deal, but it is lame as you say and not a good look for the people doing it. Trying to then justify it by giving it some deeper meaning or somehow not some petty, ugly, lame behaviour is even more lame. People should at least own what they are doing, but whatever!

To who? The general public? Her husband? Her child? I really don’t agree that she needs to speak to me or anyone of the general public about this. You really think Melania owes you an explanation about her husband having unprotected sex in 2006? I don’t.

Nonsense, this article is mocking her answer and specifically her statement about being a mom. If you don’t understand the point that I don’t agree with spouses being open season for any kind of attack because of who their husband’s are and how this situation and that of Mrs Cruz are comparable, I don’t know what to…

I’m really curious, do you really not have any sympathy for Melania in this situation?

It’s not about demanding sympathy, it’s about introspection of our own behaviour. To me, you are engaging in a form of ‘whataboutism’ in your response. All of those things are true and I am happy to criticise her for those things (well not the marrying a tabloid superstar part because I really would not care in the…

I know this from reading People magazine, I am pretty sure Barron is on spring break this week and is with her. So, to be fair to Melania, I suppose that gives a little more context to that part of her statement- she is in full mom mode on vacation with her kid.

Don’t Jewish people have some pretty intricate traditional dances that they perform at weddings or the like?

What is this guy even doing ‘explaining’ the beliefs of Catholics to a bunch of Baptists in NYC?? Is there some strange lack of general awareness of Catholicism in Harlem that I am not aware of? His whole thing is weird and lame. “Full disclosure, I am Catholic”- dude, what. Also, I bet Pope Francis can dance.

1. Err wtf, Melania’s spokesperson??? No one was talking about Barron until you just completely unnecessarily dragged him into this story!!

16 accusations.

Uhh....as much as I appreciate the idea of someone finally pushing back on Trump and his nasty bullying henchmen, I’m gonna go with, I get it really, but please don’t. Let’s be honest, unlike most all other accusers, no one really doesn’t believe that Trump had an affair with Stormy. I mean, really. His supporters are…

Exactly, thank you! Even here in the comments, people just seem to charge right over victims of sex trafficking and are writing again about how this could affect consensual sex workers. I understand concerns about overbroad legislation and am by no means championing this particular legislation as perfect. But, (not in…
