It's a marriage of convenience obviously.

He likes women much younger than himself. He judges women on a scale of 1 to 10.
And she's in it for the lifestyle it affords her.

There's no love lost.

In one respect, yes.

It's really evident to all of us why Melania distances herself from him.

My goodness what would some people do without twitter and FB. Seems they dont realize there is an actual world outside of social media.

Reminds me of a co-worker who was upset that her sister in law only "liked" a photo of her kid but she didnt "comment" on it. OMG! First world problems.

I feel so sorry for Melania. Money can't buy love no matter how much you got.

You may be right, but how does anyone really know? Is Bill and Hillary a marriage of convenience? Trump and Melania may have a great marriage and may actually love each other. One thing about Trump, he raised his kids properly and was actively involved in their upbringing.

Try telling that to Trump.
He spends his life on twitter.

No he wasn't!
He admitted he had nothing to do with raising his kids.

Its blatantly obvious from body language how Melania feels about Trump.

Why does everything in a public person's private life need to be of interest to you OP? MYOB.

I can agree with the 'sometimes'. But our long time rule of thumb has been 'character counts'. I can see why, now better than ever.

This is the guy who, by his own admission turned away in disgust from an older man bleeding onto the floor right in front of him. There was no effort to assist nor even to comfort the man, and all he could think of was all that blood on his beautiful marble floor.

Imagine not one single individual, but 331 million of them. Trump turning away in disgust.

There is something deeply flawed about the man. He knows what he has to say to people to gain their confidence, but it's like he doesn't feel it personally, he is not actually invested in it, it is a purely academic exercise. He is strangely detached.

This is the kind of guy that on some level knows people don't want to die, so he would tell them they won't die if he wants something from them and by saying that he might get it, then he let's them die and shrugs it off.

In a national crises, a man like that is not prioritizing what is best for his charges, but what is best for himself. It's a cold unbalanced calculation.

I am reminded about something someone told me many years ago: "when you park your car don't leave so much as an apple on the car seat, because if someone is really hungry they will break your window and take that apple". You are out the cost of a window and all that person gained was the cost of an apple.

Trump is like that hungry man, but actually he is not hungry, he is a glutton. Trump's actions show that he would break our country's window for an apple he doesn't need.

Deeply flawed.

At $130,000 a pop, for what is reportedly quite short a period of time, i should hope so.
