Michelle Obama hosted Harvey Weinstein at the White House in 2013 for a workshop for students interested in the film industry. “I want to start by thanking Harvey
Weinstein for organizing this amazing day,” Mrs. Obama said. The Obamas got a job for their daughter at sex-maniac Harvey's company.

The Chicago ghetto girl was star struck by Weinsteins wealth and fame.
Here Michelle looks about ready to give happy Harvey a BJ.

Exactly. Yet Jackie managed to hold herself together and rise above her husband’s not very secret philandering. I don’t know if Trump is still behaving in that manner, but Melania holds herself with grace and dignity (without throwing ashtrays, getting drunk, and cursing like a sailor) and that’s what people will remember about this lovely First Lady (emphasis on lady).

Nothing but a bunch of rampant speculation and no facts. In fact, the supposedly infamous “hand swat” was said to be because Melania didn’t want to go against protocol in that particular moment, not because she was spurning the POTUS.
These people are pathetic. He neglects to mention that Melania was smiling very broadly at 3 AM the other night when she went to the trouble of accompanying her husband to the hostage arrival. She didn’t have to do that, and I appreciated seeing it.

Wanna talk about weird mismatches? We present Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt:

First Cousins who parented children (yuck!)

He had a long time mistress who was with him when he died / She was a closet lesbian

He was a charismatic and generally non-ideological politician ("a second-rate intellect but a first-rate temperament") / She was the most doctrinaire Socialist to ever live in the White House until Barack and Michelle arrived

Him: Handsome / Her: Homely as an old boot

JFK with his women? Or was that just a fairy tale Camelot marriage with trivial distractions?

Bill Clinton with his many women, including rape victims? Or was that all part of the vast right-wing conspiracy?

Barack Hussein with his men? Or is that just a fantasy spread by men who had casual encounters with the communist?

There is a lot of awkwardness among men with power. I feel bad for Melania that she is a target of the malignant and hateful left, but she is certainly not in the most awkward presidential marriage in my lifetime.

Hot Mic Catches Tender Moment Between Trump And His First Lady

The two embraced once again. At this point, a hot mic caught Trump in all but a whisper saying to Melania “Thank you sweetheart. Congratulations honey.” The two kissed and Trump motioned toward the Oval Office saying, “Do you want to go with me?”

A historians perception filtered through a red hot hatred. Take it for what it’s worth.

Bess and Harry Truman

My favorite picture of them, ever, after they left DC and returned home to their modest existence. Other past presidents should only be so humbly patriotic:

Well let’s see Eleanor Roosevelt slept with her girlfriend “Hitch” the night before FDR was inaugurated in 1933 and slept with a leading Communist named Joseph Lash and JFK beded everything in a skirt and LBJ was known as a voracious womanizer and of course there was Hillary and her college roommate who wrote that she introduced Hillary to “the life” of a lesbian: so the author is full of hateful crap.

Yes, Nixon’s chief complaint about
his marriage was that he could never
get it down pat.
