Any actual proof of this much repeated claim?

Yeah, I didn't think so.

CBS and CNN, who aren't exactly Trump friendly have both reported it

I have no problem with Melania. I think her accent is lovely.

I could

You vote for primarily people with R by their names, you attack people with D by their names, and you go on and on about how you arent a Republican or Democrat despite acting like a Republican on primarily. This is based on a review of your posting history.

Just like me, I vote primarily for people with D by their names, attack primarily people with R by their names, and then we separate...I'm not constantly using what people define me as as a argument point, despite having voting for some Republicans, and being pro guns, and anti illegal immigrant. I try and discuss the topic.

Speaking of the topic....

even at tens of thousands going on about it, its trivial in comparison to the Democrats. For the most part-no one gives a darn about this. Im STILL seeing this nonsense being brought up more by Republicans on my feeds then Democrats.

Its a fake outrage being driven primarily by those on the right.

Even though Melania willingly married Trump, presumably for his money, she didn't sign up to be First Lady and you know he didn't consult with her before deciding to run. She seems to be doing the best she can with the situation, along with the added insult of having his nasty extramarital affairs paraded around for all to see.

What I don't understand is why her staff and advisers do things like plagiarize speeches for her to give and not suggest a name besides #BeBest, which anyone would half a brain knows sounds awkward and is going to invite criticism. Why didn't someone suggest #BeYourBest? Like the rest of Trump's staff, Melania's staff seems to be limping along and not up to job.

I don't feel sorry for her, because she's a very beautiful, very wealthy woman who lives a life of luxury. But I certainly don't envy her being married to that creep and being thrust into public view with what appears to be very little support.

I'm looking for something like video tape of her fluently speaking these 5 languages, besides her native Slovenian, and I'll give her credit for English as well even though I don't know that I've ever seen her just speaking rather than reading prepared remarks. But if she fluently speaks French and Italian and whatever, surely there is some video of that?

You can make all of the assumptions you want, but you are wrong

Dems hate women.


Look at the years they spent mocking Palin.


To mock MT's speech and looks is the height of bullyism, sexism and of course xenophobia. And we all know where that leads, Nancy told us that sort of rhetoric leads to violence.


So much for the purity of the liberal left having run short of tolerance and any shred of humanity.


the LiberalLeft is scaring migrants away from our country with all the hate they direct toward persons not born here.

There is video of her speaking to children at a French hospital that she visited, but I'm not here to be your personal google search assistant. I guess everyone thinks we have "fake news" now?
