Are people going to complain about Melania Trump’s wardrobe for the next four years?
The Kansas City Star ^ | January 5, 2017 | Lisa Gutierrez

By any fashionable standard, the little black dress that Melania Trump wore on New Year’s Eve was quite chic: a $3,000 cocktail dress designed by Dolce & Gabbana with bejeweled bows on the shoulders.

Italian designer Stefano Gabbana thought the incoming first lady looked quite fetching in his dress and said so on Instagram, where he thanked her for wearing it.

He called Trump, a reported longtime fan of the label, a #DGwoman.

(TWEET-AT-LINK)

But the post infuriated Donald Trump critics and further fueled the ongoing debate in fashion circles about whether designers who dress the future first lady are, in turn, endorsing her husband’s politics.

“Gabbana’s eagerness to see Trump wearing his brand puts him at the far side of one of the fashion industry’s biggest divides,” notes W magazine....

Not one thread will be bought by the taxpayers.

Her "entourage" will be the barest of boned government types because she already HAS the best and(probably more) competent

She won't even use White House hot water until after school is out.


Never in American history have we had such a well put together President and family.

No plane, no salary, no vacations, and no clothing allowance (Trump ain't stupid, he'll get SOME stuff, but his act is ... he don't NEED it)

I wonder how many of his wealthy selections will also work for free.

One of the more gratifying things about having the Obama’s out of office is that we will no longer be subjected to the media trying to push Michelle Obama off as a glamorous, chic and ultra hip super model/hip hop cleb any more instead of the graceless, talentless cow that she is.

That dog just didn't hunt

Maybe now MO can just go back to her previous $450,000 a year no show hospital job denying coverage and screwing over low income critically ill people in Chicago and STFU.

My wife was a manager with Sears Optical for many years and they sold a ton of D&G eyeglasses and sunglasses.

They’ll insist on him using military aircraft. Take it from someone who has guarded both AF1 and Marine1.

Just make political sport out of it. Whenever a given website, magazine, publication or what have you makes critical remarks about Melania Trump’s attire, go back and find the bizarre, fawning praise you just know exists regarding some strange get-up donned by Michelle Obama. Post the two pics side by side, put their respective comments below them as a caption. Save the whole thing as a JPEG and then post it to all your favorite forums and sites that allow comments with pics. Pretty soon, the web will be awash with evidence of what’s really going on.

The Obama Administration was conspiracy to have President Obama replace Jimmy Carter as the worst American President ever and to have Michelle Obama replace Yoko Ono as the most untalented, unattractive, celebrity wanna be, media exposure hogging and limelight stealing attention whore in modern history.

Most or all of them — or they will donate their salary to charity.

As I have pointed out, after a certain point in wealth, money is just how you keep score. This is a whole new ballgame.

Ringling Brothers, Barnum and Bailey would have done a better job dressing Michelle-—Mr. Barnum did a good job with Jenny Lind.

he came out as a strong supporter of Trump. They [BBB] then dropped his rating to F, but sales now are going crazy.
The BBB rating drop had nothing to do with Trump.>br< It was because of some "irregularities" with My Pillow's "Buy One Get One Free" offer.
(My Pillow accreditation revoked by Better Business Bureau)

That’s not what he said in the interview. He told them that he had new ads coming out and that there was no issue from the BBB until he came out for Trump then they dropped him to an F.

I know the BBB is saying that free pillow is not a free pillow, but apparently the price is different from the store bought ones.

I don’t think BBB will admit the Trump link, but the timing is suspicious, and I think they hit him pretty hard considering the company’s record for quality and consumer service records.

He’s run that ad for months now. WHY ALL OF A SUDDEN WOULD THEY DROP HIM FROM AN A+ TO AN F?

There is no magazine more on board with the progressive/leftist/socialist agenda all the while promoting a hyper-capitalist lifestyle. Biggest hypocrites.

It’s been a long time since she came to mind. Now it’s

ZERO days since my last recollection of Yoko Ono.

My sincere apology for that senseless act of mental cruelty I have inflicted upon you.

I simply assumed that 8 years of constant exposure to Michelle Obama had toughened up us all up.

Ordinarily I'd agree with you, and it MAY begin like that, but I don't see Trump doing that much flying himself and if his family does, I believe it will probably be in Trump 1 ....

I'm willing to guess that some changes have BEEN made and ARE BEING made to Trump 1 to align it with security.

I'm also willing to guess the guys that install any devices are chuckling to themselves ...

"Hey Ralph ... you ever see anything like THIS?"

"Nope"

What the hell are WE doin' here, then ?"

"Shut up stupid ... we're getting paid REALLY well ... he'll never use it anyway, not with THAT one already installed"

Melania has a business opportunity here for those that want it.

She could sell shoes, hose, hair spray, makeup. Anything.

We haven’t had someone like this connected to the office for decades.

Nope. The Secret Service and the military will insist.
