Yeah but he played golf.

I don’t see how having his brothers funeral at the WH is a good thing. You don’t want to kick things off with a funeral but maybe that’s just me.

Melania Trump was filmed appearing to refuse to hold her husband Donald's Trump's hand as the couple stepped off Air Force One.

The footage shows the First Lady, 50, trying to hold her dress down in the wind as she descends the steps of the presidential plane in high heels.

Poor kid is at that gawky stage anyway and his discomfort for the attention is pretty palpable. It can't be easy for him.

On the stairs, while walking, or in life, he's a liability to her. He will take her down with him when he goes and she knows it.

She's loathsome, but not stupid.

she isn’t refusing to hold his hand. She’s holding her purse over her skirt to keep it from flying up with the wind. I think it’s pretty damn obvious. Why invent shit?

I rather think she is holding her skirt in place in case of an unruly blast of tarmac wind. And don’t think that isn’t exactly what the guy with the camera is hoping for.

my first thought is "I really don't care. Do U?" For a rented whore, she has cost taxpayers more than enough already. Not to mention her free loading parents. She has as much "class" as her orange, bloated, dumb husband.
