Why isn't Melania out there

reading books online to little kids, comforting high school kids who are missing graduation and prom, offering solace to those of us who've lost loved ones, giving messages of hope and unity, just Eleanor-Roosevelting the hell out of this emergency?

Oh. That's right. Our First Lady can't speak English.

She "doesn't really care." Totally forgot about that.

And I think you're mistaken. I think what English she speaks is rudimentary, and I think one reason she has her parents living with her is that they are people she can talk to.

This would be such a simple thing for them to do! Her husband has zero empathy, but they can pretend that she does. But she is in deep hiding at her parents' house. She only shows up in her $2,000 shoes to dig pretend holes in the garden.

The kids are not old enough for the kind of comforting she has been trained to provide, and the rest of us are not looking for that right now. She speaks Escort, from what I can see.

Now, if you would like to arrange...

She also is an illegal alien, as are her chain-migrated parents. She needs to be stripped of all wealth (via stripping Trump of all his, plus seizing all her separate wealth as well) and all 3 need to be tossed back to Slovenia. They can live off Melania selling her diminished assets in a backroom of a Ljubljana strip-club.

All those things she could certainly be doing. Show a little empathy for the American people who are going through such a tough time!

No, she has been hiding away and silent as a ghost. Shows you how much she cares and what her priorities are.

Those two are the most worthless people on the entire planet.

Hubby destroyed the credibility of her anti-bullying campaign.

She could take on the public mask-wearing issue and be zero for two.

Which suits Melania just fine because Michelle is kind, empathetic, intelligent, well-read, educated, caring, generous, classy, accomplished and hard-working. And Melania is the polar opposite.

She married and supported this jackass during all this evil since the election, so yeah she gets zero shade from me.

I don't care do you and Be Best, that person, I'm suppose to take seriously or any interest in whatsoever?

good book. the Obamas know words... the best words... big words. LOL I wonder if this is shade?

Michelle and I want to do our part to give all you parents a break today, so we’re reading “The Word Collector” for

. It’s a fun book that vividly illustrates the transformative power of words––and we hope you enjoy it as much as we did

I doubt she'll ever say anything, even after a divorce settlement. She'll find some other rich schmuck to marry.

And other than occasionally standing stiffly beside the moron, she hasn't taken on the usual duties of First Lady. I doubt she and her child live at the WH.

Here she is reading to children in 2017. She's barely intelligible. "I will ask the wise ool" "on the farum"
