Melania Staying ‘Far Away’ From Donald As He Nears Indictment In Manhattan: Report

As he faces the very real possibility that he will be formally indicted, fingerprinted, photographed, and processed next week in Manhattan for violating New York election law, failed one-term, twice-impeached former president Donald Trump is probably wondering which of his family and friends will abandon him first.

According to a former chief of staff to Melania Trump, Stephanie Grisham, the former first lady is, she suspects, keeping her distance from Donald.

Grisham, who briefly served as White House press secretary in the Trump administration, was a guest on MSNBC and noted that Melania has a history of staying away from her husband’s many legal problems and will likely do so this time, too.

Asked about the former president’s prediction that he will be indicted next Tuesday, Grisham replied, “This morning when the news kind of started to hit, I have to say, she is the first person I thought of and, of course, their young son who is a minor. And I just, thought there is still this family there that will also be affected in these are people I felt close to at one point.”

Grisham continued:

“She always had the attitude of ‘this is his problem, he can take care of it.’ about which I really always admired and respected. I don’t think I could’ve had that kind of attitude but I am sure that she has that same attitude right now, you know, this is your problem.

“I think she’s probably sticking kind of far from him, I think she’s doing her own thing, as she always does.”

Melania Trump’s Tone-Deaf Tweet For International Women’s Day Gets Her Shredded On Social Media

Today is International Women’s Day, which according to the website devoted to the day, is all about celebrating women and their awesome contribution to the world.

Imagine a gender equal world. A world free of bias, stereotypes, and discrimination. A world that’s diverse, equitable, and inclusive. A world where difference is valued and celebrated. Together we can forge women’s equality. Collectively we can all #EmbraceEquity.

Celebrate women’s achievement. Raise awareness about discrimination. Take action to drive gender parity.

IWD belongs to everyone, everywhere. Inclusion means all IWD action is valid.

Elsewhere on the website is this reminder:

Collective action and shared ownership for driving gender parity is what makes International Women’s Day impactful. Gloria Steinem, world-renowned feminist, journalist and activist once explained “The story of women’s struggle for equality belongs to no single feminist nor to any one organization but to the collective efforts of all who care about human rights.” So make International Women’s Day your day and do what you can to truly make a positive difference for women.

And yet here’s what Melania Trump had to say about International Women’s Day.

“On International Women’s Day, we are reminded that all women have unique gifts to share with the world, and we must lift each other up to achieve our collective goals and dreams. #InternationalWomensDay #IWD2023“

What exactly has the third Mrs. Trump done to lift other women up? What goals and dreams has she achieved? Marrying a rich old man? Posing for nude photos? Making excuses for her husband when he ripped immigrant children from their parents and wearing a jacket emblazoned with the words, I REALLY DON’T CARE, DO YOU? What has she “shared” with the world other than her heartless disregard for everyone who isn’t part of her elite social circle?

Social media took Melania to task for her bullshit tweet, and reminded her that she’s just as full of crap as we all suspected.

Trump Is Facing A Legal Dilemma That Could Wind Up Ripping His Family Apart

Disgraced and failed one-term, twice-impeached former president Donald Trump is about to be forced to choose between two equally terrible outcomes.

If the disgraced ex-president refuses to follow the advice of his attorneys, he’s facing criminal charges from Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg.

But if Donald chooses to listen to his lawyers, it’s very likely that it will destroy what remains of his marriage to Melania, cause a fracture in his relationship with his youngest son, Barron, and rip apart his family at the very seams.

According to Rolling Stone, the hush money payments made to adult film star Stormy Daniels are at the center of the decision Trump will soon have to make.

The Manhattan District Attorney’s office right now is laying out its case against Trump, arguing that the $130,000 paid to Daniels, an adult-film actress, in 2016 constituted violations of election and business-records laws. But according to two sources with knowledge of the matter, multiple Trump advisers — including at least one of his lawyers — have told him in recent months that he has a stronger case if he argues the payments had nothing to do with the election. Instead, these advisers would have Trump argue that the payments were entirely about preventing conflict with his wife, Melania.

In order to bring felony charges, New York law requires that prosecutors prove defendants falsified records in order to cover up a separate crime. In Trump’s case, District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s office is reportedly attempting to prove that the paperwork detailing Trump’s reimbursement of former fixer Michael Cohen amounted to an effort to cover up an illegal campaign contribution. Trump’s advisers hope that by casting the payments as marriage-related, they could remove any basis for the felony charge Bragg reportedly has in mind. 

Donald told Melania he never had an affair with Daniels, and if it’s proven he did, it could not only end the marriage but void whatever prenuptial agreement he had her sign before they married.

But the argument would leave Trump facing some tough questions. Because if the payments to Daniels had nothing to do with the election, then Trump would have to explain why he was willing to spend six figures to prevent his wife from hearing about an alleged sexual encounter with a porn star — a tryst that he for years has claimed never happened.

Trump knows that he’s facing having to shell out a cool fortune it it’s proven that he cheated on his wife, according to his former attorney, Michael Cohen, who made the hush money payment to Daniels and reports that his former boss once said the $130,00 he paid to keep Daniels quiet was “a lot less than I would have to pay Melania.”

So which will Donald choose? Either way, he appears to be screwed.

Report: Jill Biden And Melania Trump Absolutely ‘Despise’ Each Other

While we’ve known for some time now that President Joe Biden and disgraced ex-president Donald Trump don’t care for each other — Biden once said he’d “beat the hell” out of Donald for his crude comments about women — not much has been known about how First Lady Jill Biden and her predecessor, Melania Trump get along with each other.

But a new report from OK! is pulling back the curtain on the two women, and it certainly sounds like they cannot stand each other, either.

“They despise each other and constantly bad-mouth each other among their own social circles,” an insider dished.

The cause of the animosity between the two women is tied to the waning days of the Trump administration and the beginning of Biden’s term in office.

The reason why the two ladies don’t like one another goes back to when Melania, 52, who is married to Donald Trump, 76, didn’t help Jill, 71, get situated into the White House back in 2021.

“Jill was livid and never forgot the slight — especially as she’d been waiting and waiting for the call to come. She pointed to it as another example of Melania’s bad manners,” the insider spilled.

Also, Melania didn’t bother to attend the swearing-in ceremony for Joe Biden, which enraged Mrs. Biden:

 “She said it was downright disrespectful of them and violated another long-standing tradition. It was hard not to take the freeze-out personally.”

When the Bidens moved into the White House, a primary focus for the new first lady was to change many of the decorations that had been instituted by Melania.

“Jill hated the changes Melania had made to the second and third floors especially. She thought Melania had awful taste and made the rooms look tacky,” an insider previously shared. “Stripping the rooms of Melania’s choice of drapes and furniture was one of the first things Jill did as first lady. It gave her a lot of pleasure.”

Since leaving the White House in 2021, Melania has made it clear her only focus is to grift as much cash as possible with bullshit projects such as non-fungible token sales and auctioning off articles of clothing she wore while serving as first lady.

Capitol Insurrection January 6 Melania Trump

Melania Trump ‘Knew Something Was Going To Happen’ On January 6: Report

As the Justice Department decides whether or not to file criminal charges against one-term, twice-impeached former president Donald Trump, they may also want to take a close look at his wife, Melania, who clearly knew that something bad was going to take place on January 6, 2021.

According to a transcript released Thursday by the House Select Committee investigating the Capitol insurrection, Stephanie Grisham, a former close aide to Ms. Trump, has testified under oath that Melania “knew something was going to happen” on Jan. 6.

Specifically, Grisham recalled that she had suggested Melania send a condemnation of the Jan. 6 violence via tweet, but was rebuffed by the former first lady. She later shared that text message between her and Melania on social media.

“She just says no with no explanation. You know, by that point, again, she had been starting to change and evolve over that 2 or 3 weeks. And, again, she had started to say, like, something’s not right here and let’s listen to the West Wing. And she had started to, in my opinion, drink somebody’s Kool-Aid that perhaps this election was stolen.

“And because I knew she was up there with the carpet and I was watching violence take place at our Capitol, and she just literally said no to me with no explanation, I just — I mean, I kind of was like just f–k you.”

Grisham also said she was extremely disappointed and upset that Melania chose not to speak with the president regarding the violence taking place at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6:

“He really did listen to her all the time. And so, while I don’t know this for a fact, I know from experience with her something had gotten to her. And she – – I feel like she knew about this protest. I feel like she knew something was going to happen. Otherwise, she would have given me an explanation.”

Sounds like the Justice Department needs to have a long talk with Melania.
