Karl Lagerfeld Says Americans Have To Learn to ‘Deal With’ Donald Trump
It even led to the hashtag #SaveMelania trending on Twitter.
It’s unclear if guests will see the first family, as has been the case in the past.
“Melania says she’s most happy at Mar-a-Lago”. “They were in the living room where Donald did interviews during the campaign”. That ambition became clear this week when the mom businesswoman posted on social media a photo of herself, sitting at the POTUS desk in the Oval Office, with her father standing on one side, and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau standing on the other.
The story describes how Melania has been refusing to partake in traditional First Lady duties, most recently refusing to accompany the Japanese prime minister’s wife on a tour of Capitol Hill. She will be absent for the first several months of the president’s inaugural term.
She added: “It is never OK when a 12-year-old girl or boy is mocked, bullied or attacked”.
In an unprecedented act for a sitting first lady, Melania has continued a litigious streak by refiling a lawsuit in the NY supreme court against the owner of the Daily Mail, stating that her brand lost “significant value” because of an article that falsely alleged she had once worked for an escort service.
“Don’t let her smile [in the photographs] fool you”, the source said.
She no longer leaves her apartment even to escort son Barron Trump to school, previously a daily ritual.
The First Lady has remained in NY since her husband was inaugurated.
Melania may simply be easing into the role, says NBC.
The Washington Post is reporting that the expenses of the first four weeks of Trump’s presidency suggest that the USA government may end up spending hundreds of millions of dollars more than it did on the Obamas, largely because of extensive travel. But Mrs. Trump will have to come down from her tower more often if she hopes to attract those photographers and build her brand.
“This is what Trump has always excelled at doing: creating a spectacle that makes us forget why you were so appalled to begin with”, he wrote on Twitter.
Numerous American designers, however, are not keen on dressing her. Tom Ford, for example, certainly didn’t mince his words when tackled on the subject, stating: “I was asked to dress her quite a few years ago and I declined”.
