Just a couple of hours before President Trump announced that he and his wife, first lady Melania, had tested positive for coronavirus, the world was exposed to the so-called ‘Melania Tapes’. Stephanie Winston Wolkoff, a former friend of the first lady, released to CNN multiple recordings she took of her private conversations with Melania. Leftists who already despise the first lady raged about how she supposedly ‘hates’ Christmas and doesn’t care about migrant children. However, the tapes actually revealed a deeply sympathetic and relatable figure belied by Melania’s somewhat aloof and statuesque public persona.
‘I’m working…my ass off on the Christmas stuff, that you know, who gives a fuck about the Christmas stuff and decorations? But I need to do it, right?’ Melania complains in one recording, capturing the hearts of every suburban mom who dreads dragging the boxes of Christmas decorations out of the attic every December. No one ever really appreciates the perfectly hung garland (or in Melania’s case, the White House model made from gingerbread), but still they soldier on out of a sense of duty to make the holiday as special as possible for their families (or the country). Anyone who’s ever spent hours hanging the ornaments just so on the tree only for the cat to smash the 2015 Annual Swarovski Snowflake Ornament knows Melania’s words aren’t an indictment of the holiday itself.

This is more of an expose on the press than on Melania.
And don't forget how Linda Tripp was vilified for recording a woman who was asking her to commit perjury.
Not as bad as a former First “Lady”, saying, “All of this for a flag”.
We stopped extensive decorating for Christmas about five years ago. No tree. Wreath on the door. A few Christmas quilts here and there. A couple of decorative stockings hanging on the fireplace.
I guess I already mentioned ... NO TREE!
It’s the undoing that’s exhausting. Sometimes dont finish undoing til March.
I believe she said “damn flag”
I take that challenge. As far as I know I have never used that word because it makes me blush. I am almost 87 and I came from a different world than anyone born after WWII. I do however let slip a loud S—t about a dozen times a day because my little grandmother, who was born in 1879, used it when she got stirred up.
It was removed because I posted a photo that must have been copyright....
It was enough to put up and decorate the tree every year. And I always got a real tree.
LOL!
They make fun of her accent.... even though she speaks five languages. Whereas they have a limited command of one.

I love Melania’s sweet voice and her accent. It’s quite charming. Learning five languages is no small feat. She also has a degree in architectural design, which really fits her excellent sense of style and design.
Unlike Hillary and MO, our lovely Melania’s voice doesn’t make my ears bleed.
<<<Remember that shot of her walking up the steps in Europe with the wives of the French Premier and the Queen of Spain<<<
That Picture was Photoshopped. She was added to the Picture.
Didn’t know that. Seen it so many times that I assumed it was legit. Thanks for the correction.
