and the pope himself performed last rites, his soul could at least make it to purgatory instead of hell?

This trophy bride is going to hang around old daddy warbucks once his gig is over. She is going to drop him like a hot potato...and she'll be set for life. She has suffered enough.

I didn't even mind the huge belt from the other day.

I'm wondering if this a Slovenic inspired outfit? It does look like a widow's outfit. Look at the heavy lace on the dress and the high button collar. The mantilla is interesting too. Compare this to Ivanka who wore a lightweight veil, pearls and simpler style. Melania could have worn a more modern style and still kept protocol.
