Apparently America Disagrees With Donald Trump Melania Not the New Jackie O

Donald Trump recently tried to claim that his wife Melania Trump is the new Jackie O. As you all most likely already know Trump referred to his wife as Melania T. Well, America seems to disagree. I know a poll on a website like MSN.com is not scientific and people likely can respond more than one time. However, we can still discuss the poll knowing that it does not hold much, if any, weight.

An msn.com poll reported results of about 67% of the respondents disagreeing with Donald Trump on the question of whether or not Melania Trump is the new Jackie O. Once again, I know the poll is not scientific, but we can still discuss the results.

I have no doubt that his cult think she's the classiest, most brilliant and cultured First Lady, ever.

I think she's a ambitious and successful gold digger who got where she is, thanks to lots and lots of plastic surgery and very few, if any, standards.

I mean if I said something like, first, she'd need to be the widow of a President too, then people might take that the wrong way.

But I have noticed over time that their results skew conservative. For example, if Trump has a 42-53 favorability rating, an MSN poll will often show those numbers flipped. An MSN poll that runs 2-1 against Trump is probably indicative of much worse public sentiment.

if, you know, her husband was out of the picture....that would make melanie just a little similar to Jackie O. Still it is something I can dream about.
