Today, America gets a new First Lady. She’s beautiful – a former model! – with an impeccable wardrobe and the money to buy all the couture she wants. So why, when President Trump and his family are long out of the White House, and his administration is enshrined in the annals of history, will Michelle Obama – a woman with no connection to the fashion industry before she came into public view – be remembered as the more iconic of the two?

It’s simple. Becoming an icon is about more than just a pretty face and an international platform.

Melania Trump Is Fashionable, But She's Unlikely To Become A Fashion Icon Like Michelle Obama

The day is long past when the MSM can spew that kind of idiocy and have any expectation that their undercooked pasta can stick to the wall.

There are no words, only laughter. crazy crazy laughter. These obama lovers are insane.

[yarddog]

This is just getting ridiculous.

[boycott]

They’re right. If moo moos become the latest fashion, moosechelle would be the better fashion model.

[MtnClimber]

Her clothes cannot cover up how fat she is.

[Billthedrill]

Melania has been modeling professionally since she was five years old. It isn’t close.

[Vendome]

Well, for she won’t be a calender model for Goodyear or NAPA Auto parts but, Michelle would be the centerfold.

A fashion icon like Michelle “The Devil Made Me Buy This Dress” Obama? Did The Onion take over Forbes?
