Melania rips report she didn't want to be first lady

http://thehill.com/homenews/administration/361954-melania-trump-rips-report-she-didnt-want-to-be-first-lady

First lady Melania Trump on Monday ripped a report in which a longtime friend told Vanity Fair that she didn’t want to be the first lady “come hell or high water.”

“Once again part of the liberal media, this time Vanity Fair, has written a story riddled with unnamed sources and false assertions. As a magazine tailored to women it is shameful that they continue to write salacious and false stories meant to demean Mrs. Trump, rather than focus on her positive work as First Lady as a supportive wife and mother,” a spokeswoman for Trump said in a statement to CNN.

“As has been stated on the record many times before, she is honored by her role,” the spokeswoman added.

In a Vanity Fair report published Sunday, the unnamed friend told the magazine that being first lady isn’t something Melania wanted and isn’t something that she expected to happen.

and come to Wash DC.

Edited to add: I am sure she worked out some sort of deal.
The Trumps don't do anything without a deal attached to it.

Except for when she compared the WH to a prison. Or when she told the asshole on her arm, she didn't want him to run. Maybe people got that impression when the asshole on her arm 1st wife said you would be bad for the job because you refuse to participate. Which is why czarina had an office in the WH before you even moved in.

So was you arm turd lying then or are you lying now?
