...she could have well ended up owing a newspaper.

I would enjoy reading the Melania News, and the pictures would be worth a thousand words.

Last year she won $2.9 Million in court and this year she got a retraction, an apology, and a 'substantial amount' within ONE WEEK of the article.

Don't mess with Mrs. Donald Trump {the third:).
