Be more positivity

Melania Trump says to be nice.

Melania Trump on Sunday urged students at a conference of a youth and safety organization to be a “positive force” in the lives of those around them and to treat their peers with respect.

“You have the power to be the positive force in so many people’s lives,” the first lady said at the Students Against Destructive Decisions gathering in Tysons Corner, Virginia. “Kindness, compassion, and positivity are very important traits in life.”

That’s true, but it’s abrasive mockery coming from her. She’s married to a relentlessly hateful, hate-fomenting, malevolent man who hate-mongered his way into the presidency. She joined her husband in pushing birther lies about Obama. She sued a disabled blogger for damaging her opportunities to make money from her new role as “First Lady.” She wore that jacket spelling out that she really doesn’t care, the classic statement of callous fuckyouism throughout history. She has no business saying a word about kindness and compassion while she’s giving cover to that man.

Her encouragement to students Sunday to “speak words of kindness” came after the president spent the weekend lambasting political opponents and others in public and on Twitter.

During an appearance in Nevada Saturday night, he called Rep. Jacky Rosen (D-Nev.) “wacky” and referred to Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) as “Pocahontas.”

And she puts a pretty face on all that, when she’s not wearing a Fuck You jacket.
