[Jason "Qriist" Close]

Want to know what we have heard about the Trumps?

Not. A. Word.

Not. One.

I've spoke with a good number of the Secret Service, especially around the impeachment proceedings. (Remember that? That was this year. Yeesh.)

Most of those I spoke to haven't worked with the family directly. Of those that did, obviously there's not a lot they could directly say (not that I pressed too terribly hard), but I got the sense that they generally enjoyed it.

One somewhat older officer said something that sticks out to me when I asked how he liked working for Trump: "it's respectable now". I'm certain he wasn't supposed to say that, at least not in that way.

All of that to say, I think it's entirely likely most of the "hired help" are happy with their positions. After all, both Donald and Melania are long since accustomed to affluence. It makes sense that they would know how to correctly interact with the worker bees.

 

[Gehenna]

If I might postulate a bit. I suspect that this relates to one of the reasons the left find Trump so enragingly baffling. Think about it for a bit:

We have a bloviating, self aggrandizing billionaire, born with a silver spoon in his mouth. By any normal metric from the outside, the working class should -hate- him.

Yet, they don't. In fact, they embrace him eagerly in droves.

I think a lot of it comes down to Trump retaining something a lot of his moneyed peers did not. He remembers the worth of a dollar. He can connect across class because while he has never been in their rung of society, he has retained an understanding of an individual dollars worth and how little it can stretch. So when he speaks, its in a language both can agree to. Unlike saaay, Romney, who makes 10K bets as if it were a fiver. Or Hillary Clinton, totally disconnecting from the working classes trials and travails.

It fucking sickens me when they go after Melania. She seems like a sweet gal, and she's a foreign woman who became first lady, that's pretty sweet. But you know she's on the wrong side of history, so they have to make fun of her accent, being a foreign woman, can't English properly, and say Michelle was prettier.

I don't care about Michelle or Melania. The last great First Lady this country has gotten was Laura Bush.

Remember when we couldn't criticize Michella Gorilla because that was a low bar?

I hope on election day you have a bad night. Maybe you can do us all a favor and remove yourself from the kingdom of man.

Remember when mocking a woman for being in porn was misogynistic in the extreme?

Being lower than whale shit would be a step up for Twitter leftists.

So has Twitter bitched about going to Mars yet? Eric Trump mentioned it in his speech.

I'm expecting a lot of anti-science and suddenly deciding that the government doesn't need to be paying for the space program. That and people who watched a Matt Damon movie suddenly deciding they're specialists in interplanetary colonization.

Melania is speaking at the Rose Garden right now.

e: they're gonna shit on her for her accent. If they haven't already.

They are the crowd of "I FUCKING LOVE SCIENCE" and watch "Rick and Morty" and "The Big Bang Theory"

Was Michelle actually a lawyer lawyer or is she one of those lawyers who immediately went into "public service"?

The latter.

 

[verissimus]

The latter.

So she never actually practiced law like Ben Shapiro (or at least so he claims which is ridiculously odd considering he studied political science not law).

 

[CrippleThreat]

The latter.

Still a better lawyer than Hunter Biden.

That post is a tad bit on the misogynistic side, isn't it? I thought shaming a woman over her past wasn't kosher.

 

[WalterSullivan]

still waiting for this "minority genocide" they told us about

Ben Shapiro claims to be a laywer? Sheesh. I thought he was busy talking about his wife being a doctor.

I'm not a 100% he said as much or if he said he was part of a firm either of which I find to be complete BS but the part about his wife being a doctor checks out.

He was a "legal consultant" apparently. I'm not sure what he did, but he probably hasn't argued in front of a judge.

 

[AmHole]

Expect a lot of incoming REEEEEEEs from Twitter and MSNBC regarding the Rose Garden and especially how nobody was wearing masks.
Im sure they'll bring some other stuff, but I gotta give props to Melania for giving a live and longer speech than Joe.
