Lincoln Project Observes Melania’s B’Day, X Marks It ‘Adult Content’

X marks the spot, we learn with respect to pirate maps, and X also calls the shot when it comes to categorizing content. I must say this is a bit on the Bizarro World side, but then again, considering the identities of the people involved and how our cultural mean has descended several dozen points since 2016, it does make some kind of sense. I don’t know the origin of the original sound track, only that the shouting part of it affects me like fingernails on the proverbial chalkboard. That said, putting things in this context does provide a rationale for the reactions you’ve seen Melania have to her husband over the years. It really could be this simple.

You see what I mean? Melania turns 54 today, which is wayyyy out of Trump’s wheelhouse, by a couple of decades, even. And she could be in New York if she wanted to. They certainly could have a night out on the town, but it’s pretty clear that that is either of no interest to her or of no interest to either party and my spidey sense tells me the latter.

I wonder if Donald bought Melania a gift? Or, maybe him being away is the only gift she wants and on that wavelength, we are as one. I didn’t know if it was possible to have anything in common with Melania, other than putting on our pants one leg at a time, but we all do collectively have that in common with her. The best gift from Donald, the desired and coveted gift, is his absence. We concur.

The bottom clip is the one where I’ve always thought Trump let one rip and she reacted. She’s reacting to something here, maybe it’s only his words.

I'm sure Melania thanks the NYC court for keeping Trump as long as they can. Melania is probably rooting louder than any of us for a Trump conviction. She doesn't even want him to touch her. pic.twitter.com/bbK5K6LY7L

There’s a clip from the Anderson Cooper interview of Karen McDougal where she recounts how Trump offered her money right after they had sex and she was deeply offended. When I heard it I wondered if maybe Trump had done the same thing with Melania and she asked, “How much more of thees izz therrre?” She openly admitted that their situation was an exchange of her looks for his money.

Melania now goes on to launch the Log Cabin Republicans, who held a soiree at Mar-a-Lago the other night with tens of people in attendance. Maybe they wrote her out another fat check.

The irony of all this is that there’s nothing unusual about a rich guy like Trump marrying an ornamental woman, or a beautiful woman who didn’t exactly crush the modeling world marrying a rich guy. Let them get right to it. The comedy comes from the grandiose pretense, that Melania is an “electric” personality, a linguist who has mastered five, or is it six languages, recipient of an Einstein visa, by her own description “intelligent” and “successful.” She’s also gone on record saying how Donald’s “mind” fascinates her.

Your success, Melania, comes from Donald’s checkbook and his success came from Daddy’s dime. That’s all you are. Without Fred Trump making it all possible financially, you would not be together and scamming America.

Happy Birthday, Melania.
