Normally I won't discuss the looks of a politician's spouse

(Although Bill is looking a lot healthier of late. He really looked bad a month or so ago).

In the case of Melania, I will make an exception.

No, I don't care about the nudes, so long as Barbara Bush doesn't join in the fun. What really strikes me is her expression. Is it a sneer, is she myopic? What is she trying to say, other than "this is my trademark look?"

It really is off-putting, even strange. If that is the look that attracts Teh Don, wow.

By The NY Post owner and Rump to desperately try to change the subject. Period. Why would a paper owned by his pal Rupert and one that endorsed him try to do harm?

Typical model pose. Can't blame her for that. Wish you would self delete as I think this is unfair criticism.

are ironclad, as are his nondisclosure agreements. That is how he shut both Ivana and Marla up when they let slip a hint of negativity.

The older she gets the more she will get done. That toad of a husband of hers only values her for her looks.
