If I saw this photo of these two people & I didn't know them,

[Sugar Smack]

I'd be completely baffled. I'd think, "There's a beautiful -looking woman. Nice shades. What the everlovin FUCK is she doing next to that stupid idiot, and why is he looking directly at the sun and pointing at it, as if trying to identify it? He appears to be an adult. Doesn't he know better? She should probably ease away slowly before this weirdo does something just totally embarrassing."

1. The resident of The Asylum blinded after looking at the face of his god

[Sugar Smack]

7. Maybe he thinks he can appropriate more power by trying to challenge

the sun. Maybe he thinks it'll charge him like a battery. And the COMPLETE folly of ruining one's own eyes to ...What??!? To what end?

[DesertRat]

2. I watched the video and their body language is telling

Melania looked stiff and uncomfortable. She looked like she was forced to stand beside him and would rather have been anywhere else.

He also seemed to ignore his son who briefly joined them on the balcony.

[Sugar Smack]

9. It's the same look she had when her husband had his hand on that glowing orb.

I wonder if she's trying like hell not to look mortified.

And seeing the 3 of them- if you didn't know them--it's obvious the child there has a great deal more sense than his father.

13. There is no affection between DT and Barron. It's sad to see, except that

Barron is better off if he doesn't get sucked into the narcissist's sticky web.

It seems that his mother cares for him. Maybe that will be enough.

[DesertRat]

14. I agree

45 seems to only care about the children from his first wife.

[RKP5637]

27. I hope so. Barron looks like he could be a nice kid, but Trump will corrupt him. n/t

[LiberalArkie]

34. Barron is closer to his secret service person than his dad or brothers.

When Barron is with his parents and is wearing a jacket, he holds his jacket just like the guards do.

[secondwind]

16. She seems to hover over this boy too much

[Grammy23]

22. She probably feels the need to protect him from tRump

who has a history of being less than kind to his own children. And yes, he seems to barely give the boy the time of day. When they get on or off the plane, they don't interact in any way. Barron seems rather disconnected from either of them, but that could just be because he is 11. I get the feeling he spends a lot of time by himself with nannies, maids and secret service officers in attendance. He strikes me as a lonely kid. Contrasted with President Obama's girls, there is a huge difference. They interacted with their parents (at the same age) and seemed to genuinely be a happy, very normal acting family. The trumps? Not so much.

23. Humpty Dumpty doesn't give af about anyone except himself. Poor Barron has not daddy, just a sperm

donor.

[RKP5637]

26. I wish she and her son could get away from that creep! n/t

[3catwoman3]

33. I wish...

...WE could get away from him.

[Control-Z]

28. How long did he actually stare at the sun?

It's difficult to judge from still pics.

[DesertRat]

40. It was only a few seconds before an aide yelled "don't look"!

[irisblue]

3. really really bad date material. nt

[Sugar Smack]

12. Great understatement!

And a wonderful caption for any one of those photos.

[ADX]

4. Beauty's in the eye of the beholder...

...and this beholder doesn't find anything beautiful about the woman in the above picture.

She does have nice shades though.

[NurseJackie]

5. She looks like one of realistic toys from "Real Doll"

Seriously.

[cwydro]

19. Yeah, I don't see her as attractive at all.

Stepford wife kind of thing going on there.

[HipChick]

35. omg..thats what my mother says too..thing is

I had no idea that she even knew about those things..

[cornball 24]

8. AGREE!!

[JI7]

11. She was pretty before she got the new face

[Sugar Smack]

20. Within the context of the photo, I meant what I would have

if I saw any woman at all, standing on some balcony, with a complete -and potentially volatile- freak beside her, behaving in a way other people were trained from childhood not to do. I do think she has a nice smile, but the mug she's wearing there is acutely uncomfortable.

[Control-Z]

30. I wonder how much custom designer "solar" shades cost.

You don't find those in just any store.

[Sneederbunk]

6. Melania has been able to maintain her dignity while

Cheeto has wallowed in his lack thereof.

[DesertRat]

10. I disagree. Melania is complicit.

Melania supports Trump while he treats her like an ornament. We know from the Access Hollywood tape that he bragged about grabbing women and Melania brushed it off as "boy talk." She has consistently defended his actions and supported the birther movement.

[stevil]

32. Shit. I missed that one.

No sympathy from me. BTW, do you live in California? We call ourselves desert rats around here.

[DesertRat]

39. Arizona native

We call ourselves desert rats here too.

[Skittles]

17. gold diggers have zero dignity

[TexasBushwhacker]

29. What woman would marry Trump other than a gold digger?'

As Dr Phil says, if you marry someone for money, you earn every penny.

[Ilsa]

25. Melania puts on a dignity show, but

it's as phony as her love for trump and as phony as trump.

Her fans like her because she doesn't do anything but act like a trophy wife.

[CatMor]

15. I would think he is a wealthy man

and she is what's known as a gold digger.

[cwydro]

18. He really does have small fingers lol.

I'm a small woman, but my fingers are longer than his.

[Skittles]

21. same here

yes indeed

[NastyRiffraff]

31. Me too

I have small hands, and I'm 5'4" but my fingers are about the same size as his. His should be a LOT longer.

[d_r]

24. I 'd figure

She was embarrassed of her dad acting goofy

[apkhgp]

36. It ia too late to avoid the embarrassing situation. n/t

[RedSpartan]

37. Look at how short his fingers are.

I mean, seriously. It's comical. Stub city, population: Dolt 45

[SeattleVet]

38. I think he has a total misconception...

about what they meant when they told him he had to set up a 'blind trust'.
