We all make/create/break/author our own relationships. That's all.

At first, it seemed that idle speculation on the state of the Trump marriage was pointless, However, I've come to realize that it means the cost of protecting the first family doubles when they do not share the same residence.

Trump was in Mar-A-Lago, his "winter White House" writing his inaugural speech. As the school year was underway and there were no photos of Melania and their son, one assumes they were back in NYC. Ivanka and Kellyanne had no qualms about enrolling their kids midyear in DC schools, so you can't help but wonder what's up with the Trumps.

NYC has lodged complaints about the cost of providing protection ($500,000/day) and received federal funds to assist with this.

Taxpayers are now paying for security at the actual WH, the Mar-A-Lago winter WH, and the Trump's penthouse. With the national debt as high as it is, this seems a wasteful use of taxpayers' funds.
It seems to me that Melania wants an extended vacation from her sugar daddy. Who can blame her? But the taxpayers shouldn't have to foot the bill. Since Don the Con is too "smart" to pay taxes himself, the bills should be sent directly to him to pay.

Im going to do this one time and one time only. But you people need to seek help. I'm being serious.

And I'm not kidding...please get away from politics for awhile or talk with someone. This is unhealthy.

Backdrop: It was during the prayer portion post-Trump's speech. Everyone is in somber prayer mode. Ever been to church? I was raised Catholic. That's game face or hell for the entire mass.

We got a holy man up there breaking the religious seriousness with a remark about rain being a good sign...Biblically-speaking. And letting it be known he mentions it as a lighter note on the proceedings.

Trump breaks somber mode and turns back to Melania to share in the light-hearted moment with a smile. She breaks and returns the smile. Trump turns back around and we all go back to somber church mode as the holy man continues his spiel.

Hour 2 and 52 minutes below in this full ceremony from Time via YouTube. But don't just go to 2:52:00. Start at like 2:49:00 and get the context I'm talking about.

Now if you'll excuse me I'm off to dissect the Zapruder film for someone else on another message board.

It seems that whenever the idea of a total revamp of the tax code is suggested, Democrats oppose it.

Blame the Democrats for tax laws that allowed Trump to LEGALLY pay less than you want him to pay.

Uh huh. You can spin it anyway you like, we all saw the video, unedited & from two different views. Nice try.

As for helping his wife out of the car. Why do women who are not disabled need help getting out of the car? I understand that it's a manners thing, but from what century?
From this century. It's something that I have spent a lot of time working on with all three of my children. Mr. Obama (he was not yet president at the time of the Bush meeting) did not help his wife out of the car. He waited patiently for his wife to join him and lovingly offered his arm to her, so they could ascend the stairs to meet the first couple together. It was a sign of deep and mutual respect between the two of them. I don't think Donald Trump hates his wife; I just think he's a cad, and I further believe his fundamental lack of manners is going to be a detriment to his time in office.

Okay, it looked like it was played backwards, but this provides context. She smiled and nodded and he turned back around. Liberals are sad.

Yeah, everyone on stage is in "church mode".

Run it from 2:49:00 to 2:54:00.

It's as plain as day.
