Is that necessary to post here? While true that it’s a part of her past, it’s just that: a part of her past...and she is our First Lady NOW. Let’s show more respect.

I’m sure those old photos have been gleefully posted enough at the DUmp.

I have never been able to figure out why we must make allowances for their customs and dress but they can’t recognize our culture and dress....


It’s because an article of faith for the liberals, is that we must show respect for other cultures and religions. Liberals don’t expect the same courtesy from those of other cultures and religions, for unknown reasons. Liberalism doesn’t always make common sense. If people should be “tolerant”, then of course it should go both ways. But in the liberal mind, it only goes one way.

“Sorry, but I don’t like it any better on Melania. SHE, on the other hand, is FABULOUS!!!!!!!!!!

Boob belts are just ridiculous to me, no matter the wearer.”

I agree.
Ugliest dang things I’ve ever seen. Makes me think of a sumo wrestler.

If Trump were President on September 11, 2012, Benghazi would never have happened.

Could that big buckle be some sort of spy device?

I agree as well. They looked stupid back in the 60’s, too. Her dress reminded me a bit of a burka with the long sleeves, long length, and the dark color. I think she was being thoughtful and respectful, in addition to tasteful.

Only because of the tweet Trump sent out years ago about Michelle not wearing a headscarf. I’m getting sick of looking at the headlines.

Michelle, Hillary, and other European woman dignitaries did not cover their heads in Saudi Arabia either.

It would have been great if she did the Lord’s prayer before coming down the steps.

“If I had $5 for every hijab I’ve seen at my local Wal-Mart since last October I could buy a nice used car”.

If I had $5 for every one I’ve seen here in southwest Colorado, I’d have $0.00.

We have a painting of an orangutan in our living room, siting with a daisy in his hand. Great pic!

I don’t think my late wife ever covered her head during our two years in the Magic Kingdom.
