I give that marriage about a year after they leave the WH. Seems to me she made her distaste for her husband too obvious to hide, but couldn’t exit the marriage as long as they were White House residents.

Now my guess is she’ll take Barron and get the hell away,

I thought the amount of shit that she got for her Christmas decorations (and the rose garden) was completely unfair. I actually liked what she did, decorations wise. The garden too.

It was totally unfair. The Rose Garden was I think opened up for more distance due to COVID and frankly it made sense not to have a lot of shade trees in a rose garden.

She is the wife of TDS

To some that is all that matters

I'm sure they have a very happy and fulfilling union.

@bachophile I doubt it. People go into and stay in marriages for all sorts of reasons and I’m betting she stays.

Personally, I think the best thing we can do for Melania is to leave her alone. I don't think she wants our attention. Whether she stays with Trump or leave, I do not think that will impact me one way or another.

Melania Trump's comments wrt politics have always struck me as being awkward. I don't want to say insincere, but just...not heartfelt. I don't know if it's because of her accent or her speechwriters. Always looked a bit uncomfortable and strained.

And, as long as we're talking about it, I have to wonder why she married DJT in the first place. I wouldn't marry him for all the money in the world.

Money, prestige and power are all wonderful aphrodisiacs.

Can you prove she married him for his money?

The Europeans have always been suckers for urbane charm and self-deprecating humour.

I never understood why some choose to be harsh on Melania. While she wasn’t the most amazing First Lady in our lifetime I thought she had plenty of decorum and good causes that she participated in. I’m sure she was superb at State Dinners. Being ugly about her offers a wonderful moment of self reflection.

She always looks like she’s waiting patiently for Stockholm syndrome to set in.

Well, that opinion and $1 will buy you a cup of at McDonald's.

It has to be said, she generally looks almost as miserable as David Beckham's old lady.

I agree.

(I dont know if it is true, and I am only repeating rumor, but I read that she stayed in NY after President Trump was made president because she was re-working a pre-nuptial agreement.)

My guess is that they will stay married. She will spend most of her time in NY and he will spend most of his time in Florida.

As @jolly said, money and power pretty strong for someone to marry someone when there doesn't seem to be a match.

As someone said, "there are no ugly millionaires!"

It's easy to understand. Democrats are the party of hate. It isn't because she's Trump's wife. It isn't because she's a "bad" first lady. It's because democrats are the party of hate.
