The reason the porn star payoff isn't a story is...the Access Hollywood story. That established the baseline that Trump is NOT to be admired as a human being even by his fans. They needn't think well of him to think well of him.

(16,899 posts)I am sure she will see this. If she does not pack her bags and take Barron away from this monster, she had best sue him for as much as she can get from him. Trump is a sleaze. Bill Clinton was impeached for a less egregious offense for lying about a blow job. Trump has far more on his plate because of the two previous Mrs. Trumps and his history between those marriages.

(82,849 posts)But I agree, Melania Trump is a person with full agency. She is making a choice to stay in this marriage, though I don't know what that's based on. As such, I'm comfortable saying that her choice is not the one I'd make.

(11,580 posts)"Third Lady" is excellent! If it isn't original, don't tell me!
LiberalLovinLug
(14,180 posts)Probably correct about the prenup. But I'll bet there's even more to it. She's probably being paid, just like a hooker, to stay in the marriage at this point and play her part at least while her man/baby is President.
But she went in with eyes wide open. "Gold digger" comes to mind. I don't feel sorry for her at all.

(22,074 posts)The blow up dolls always have their mouths wide open. I don't think Ivanka ever looks like that, (wink).
Actually, Ivanka reminds me of a Real Doll®. These are life sized dolls make of a metal skeleton with silicone flesh that weigh as much as a human. They are amazingly life-like-- to a point, of course. They cost from $5,500 to over $10,000 and they are "anatomically correct." The dolls come in a wide variety of sizes, shapes and hair colors. For additional fees, the face can be made to resemble real people if the customer provides photographs of the person they want to copy. The dolls were obviously created with an understanding of some men's pre-historic ideas of the "perfect woman."
If you want to know what these dolls are like, Google is your friend!
It would be awesome if the company offered Ivanka and Melania dolls!

(11,348 posts)Only thing they would be against is Trump working with Dem's on improving social programs. Everything else they are going to give him a green light on.

(100,149 posts)They clearly have a screw loose. Bill Maher is right - the republicans are the democrats' crazy ex girlfriend. It's not enough that they won the election, they want to lock their opposition behind bars. Scary shit.

(11,580 posts)what about the word "generic?" Ms Daniels comes from a genre totally focused on sex. In fact, more than focused, the genre is wholly composed of sex. Everything about it - every millisecond and atom - are "generic."
I have zero moral qualms about "consenting adults" and what they are up to, but I have to wonder what she would consider to be "non-generic."

It's the Onion.

(1,770 posts)that the true story of the porn star being paid off by the Shithole and the Onion article reverses it for laughs, right?

(100,149 posts)A 3 times divorced psychotic, egomaniacal lunatic who cheated on his 3rd wife with a stripper who he paid handsomely to spank him with a picture of himself on a magazine, has an extremely bizarre lust for his daughter, and a pee tape. But LGBT people in monogamous relationships? Well that's just icky.

that would have made her either 24 or 25 when trump made those comments to Daniels.
so fucking creepy on so many levels.
mr_lebowski
(33,643 posts)And he just casually said to her, like over a dinner, that she was smart, beautiful, and force to be reckoned with like my daughter (who he's obviously thought very highly of ... forever) ... that's really THAT creepy to you?
I don't find it necessarily 'creepy'.
Had he said 'super sexy' or 'f***able' like my daughter or something like that, or perhaps if he'd said it in certain intimate scenarios ... it would be creepy as hell, but ... I don't really 'get' y'all's trippin' over this.
Based on what we know ... only some words were said at some point ... it doesn't HAVE to be 'sexual' at all. One thing we know about this relationship is that it by no means took place only in bedrooms, they were seen ALL OVER the place, in public, together.
So I guess to me the context of how/when it was said is important in my judgement of it, I guess not to the rest of you.
What he said on the View years ago was far, far creepier, to me. Esp. since he said it in front of a group of ladies. Ewwww ...

(62,540 posts)he was talking to a porn star. yes, it's creepy.
