I didn’t like the unelected Hillary or Michelle having power, and even though I think Melania is 100% right, I don’t like the “office. Of the First Lady” being formalized.

These disputes should remain internal.

The first time I saw Melanie my first thought was:
“This is NOT a lady you want to cross!”

I don’t care what job you have... pissing off the bosses wife is never a good idea for your career.

***WARNING***

WaPo (A Whale of Poo) - Dishonored in Trump's 2017 Top Ten First Annual Fake News Winners AKA Among the Top Ten Biggest Liars of the Lying Leftist Media

Don’t believe these Lying Leftist Media outlets that proved themselves during the 2016 campaign to be operatives of the DNC and intentional liars. They are presumed to be lying and we should presume what they publish is a lie. The presumption can only be rebutted with the outlet providing clear and convincing evidence they are not lying.

Why not post the TRUTH about the lies? You don't have to use the liar as the source to post a headline that alerts readers to a published lie. Use yourself as the source or a reasonably reliable source that addresses what the Lying Leftist source is saying. That way you have a headline and a source that your readers can reasonably rely on and they go away more informed about the lie AND the truth.

If this story is true and has some redeeming value, at least get the story from a reasonably reliable source, not from a known Lying Leftist operative posing as a “news” organization. You’ve done the Patriotic Right a service. Much better than the mindless repetition of lying sources and their lying headlines.

“...pissing off the bosses wife is never a good idea for your career.”

Imagine how she treats her staff/subordinates, if she had the nerve to treat the FLOTUS so disrespectfully.
