The unique, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity
The Times editorialists are blunt about the disgustingly sleazy plans of Melania Trump to use Donnie’s presidency as a money-attracting tool.
[A]ny veneer of plausible deniability about the Trump family’s greed and their transactional view of the most powerful job in the world was shattered this week by a defamation lawsuit the first lady, Melania Trump, filed…
…As a result of the report published in August, Mrs. Trump contends in the suit, her “brand has lost significant value, and major business opportunities that were otherwise available to her have been lost and/or substantially impacted.” The suit offers no specific examples of lost business opportunities.
The timing of the story was particularly injurious, according to the lawsuit, considering that Mrs. Trump “had the unique, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, as an extremely famous and well-known person, as well as a former professional model and brand spokesperson, and successful businesswoman, to launch a broad-based commercial brand in multiple product categories, each of which could have garnered multimillion-dollar business relationships for a multiyear term during which plaintiff is one of the most photographed women in the world.”
There’s really not much need to comment on that, is there – it speaks for itself.
No. That is, yes. Agreed.
Keep forgetting the brand, maybe because it does not appeal to me. Melonia Tramp, was it?
I almost felt sorry for her. But now, it’s difficult. Many women work very hard (including most models) and achieve what success we achieve by our work. She just wants to cash in bigly.
Plus she extorted a large amount of money from one blogger who repeated the Daily Mail claims. I have ZERO sympathy for her now.
Yes, that’s what made me speak my thoughts, so to write. ;-)
btw the next post seems to have be messed up, the page doesn’t seem complete and there is no comment field.
Money can buy a lot but it certainly cannot buy class. Polishing turds springs to mind.
A little off topic, but I was reading a couple of days ago that one of the reasons Trump’s diet is largely fast food is that he is a bit obsessive about cleanliness and germs, and thinks that McD’s and KFC food is the cleanest way of eating – proof indeed that he really doesn’t understand just how hated he is. I’d bet the fortune I don’t have that in the past few months he’s swallowed more of other people’s saliva, nose-pickings and whatever else the various establishments’ employees can get into his food undetected than a school-full of 5-year olds get through in a year.
Yikes; thank you, Holms. Fixed.
Speaking of polished turds…

Maybe someone can make a matched set for Trump and his full Cabinet?
He thinks fast food is the cleanest way of eating because he didn’t have to work his way through high school and college. I’ve worked fast food, and I am under no such illusions.
With fast food, you don’t have to tip staff.
I withdraw my prior sympathy. She’s a vulgar gold digger, a typical calculating capitalist.
I do feel sorry for the kid; his mother chose to ally herself with Trump. Poor Barron was born into this contractual arrangement.
