Melania is the only good thing about Trump isn't she? *Title changed by GNHQ*

Loved how good she seemed with the kids at the primary school today, helping them to make Xmas decorations and wrap presents for charity. She seemed very relaxed. Really enjoying herself.

Never eaten an English mince pie either!

The comments about Melania Trump’s eyes, if you see photos of her parents, she’s the image of her mother. Not much she can do about that!

Princess Anne too! Wonder if she'll be in trouble with the Queen.

Gonegirl Thu 05-Dec-19 12:50:12

Must be hard for her when this sort of thing happens to her husband.

No wonder he left early!

Dear Gonegirl, have missed reading your posts. Glad I found this thread as ever, it's totally cheered me up.
May I have half a doz of your mince pies? Xxxx

Gonegirl Thu 05-Dec-19 12:27:22

It is odd, that thing she does with her eyes.

Callistemon Thu 05-Dec-19 12:01:58

Heck no, she's 8!!
I can feel her wrath from afar, she has a sixth sense.

Callistemon Thu 05-Dec-19 12:00:20

I think it's hilarious. I've seen DGD2 with the same expression (she's 7 btw ) grin

Gonegirl Thu 05-Dec-19 11:06:33

Ah, look. They changed it. smile

Callistemon that photo from Twitter was one of four all similar and taken in different situations. Maybe she needs glasses but doesn't want to be seen wearing them?
She's in the front line. This sort of thing goes with the awful job of being Trump's wife.

Given the level of obesity in the US I think Milania is a very good role model as their First Lady .

She is lovely and slim and the clothes she chooses are invariably classy and stylish.

I think we can safely say that she doesn’t share her husband’s fast food habit!!

PS, no she doesn't. www.youtube.com/watch?v=qxbeaFgDS_o

Gonegirl Thu 05-Dec-19 09:49:03

I thought about doing that C. Will do it now.

Callistemon Thu 05-Dec-19 09:48:11

Ps and she speaks five languages.

Callistemon Thu 05-Dec-19 09:47:30

Gonegirl you could ask GNHQ to tweak the title of your thread

Callistemon Thu 05-Dec-19 09:45:23

I think that was a photo of her caught unawares when she was looking at her husband Jane10!!
She is acting the role of First Lady as required by the Americans but they reportedly spend little time together, if at all any.

She is, as required by the demands of this unofficial post, spearheading campaigns eg Be Best, other children's charities and charities in her home country.

I feel sorry for her, stuck at the moment and possibly dreading another 4 years.

At least she manages to keep her child out of the limelight for the most part.

Gonegirl Thu 05-Dec-19 09:43:19

I wouldn't be surprised if, in America, she does similar things to what our Kate does. (Yesterday it was choosing Xmas trees for a playgroup.)

Gonegirl Thu 05-Dec-19 09:41:33

merlot do not bring yet another name into this, if you please. grin

I thought she looked very pretty when she was with the children. Her makeup was nice. Lovely colour pink lipstick. We don't want these people to look too ordinary do we?

Callistemon Thu 05-Dec-19 09:37:21

Why are some women so bitchy about other women?

Any idea crystaltipps?

Jane10 Thu 05-Dec-19 09:02:27

There was a comment on Twitter that she always looks as if she's trying to read the chop shop menu on the wall. Obviously I'm a horrible person but it made me laugh.

inkcog Thu 05-Dec-19 08:25:49

Sad state of affairs when we continue to assess a woman's value and contribution, by her weight.

Grandma70s Thu 05-Dec-19 07:21:11

She was wearing so much eye make-up I’m amazed she could see through it. Th heels are absurd. I think underneath it all she’s a good-looking woman, but a bit more natural would be better. Her height and slenderness are natural advantages,

crystaltipps Thu 05-Dec-19 07:10:41

I expect she’s writing novels, composing symphonies and eradicating world poverty in between the dressing up and hair appointments etc,

Calendargirl Thu 05-Dec-19 06:58:36

We have no idea what she does day to day now do we?

crystaltipps Thu 05-Dec-19 06:55:18

If her job is to look attractive, wear 6 inch heels, designer clothes and have Botox, and do pretty much nothing else of value then she fits the bill.
