Me, me, me

Melania is definitely a Trump.

"I am disappointed and disheartened with what happened last week," she said in a statement issued Monday morning. "I find it shameful that surrounding these tragic events there has been salacious gossip, unwarranted personal attacks, and false misleading accusations on me – from people who are looking to be relevant and have an agenda. This time is solely about healing our country and its citizens. It should not be used for personal gain."

"It has been the honor of my lifetime to serve as your First Lady. I want to thank the millions of Americans who supported my husband and me over the past 4 years and shown the incredible impact of the American spirit. I am grateful to you all for letting me serve you on platforms which are dear to me," she said. "Most importantly, I ask for healing, grace, understanding, and peace for our great Nation."

We already set out a report noting that Trump was far more angered by the crowd looked like “low class” people than he was concerned about the violence or that it was happening at all. Now it appears that Melania proved herself to be every bit Trump’s equal yet again – something else we’ve reported on a number of times, including early yesterday.

On Friday, CNN reported that amidst all the violence and danger, Melania hosted a photoshoot of the furniture and rugs she has had restored in the White House for a coffeetable book she is writing.

But now we find out that White House staff begged Melania to intercede and force Trump to go on TV and get the terrorists to stop. Melania is one of the very few people left in this country that has any pull at all with Trump. She refused to even speak to Trump about it and moved on wiping a vase.

And yet, going forward, we won’t say that they can no longer surprise us. They can. They can always get worse. This is the reason that they should be removed by either forced resignation, the 25th Amendment, or an impeachment resolution and trial.
