Melania Trump Quotes

The Trump marriage veered furthest away from my concept of the union — and surprised me most as a student of American politics. Donald and Melania seem to inhabit separate realms and to come together when necessary, when one could not move forward without the other. The presidency was one instance in which they were forced into a joint undertaking. If my choice of language sounds businesslike, that’s because that’s how I’ve come to view the Trumps. Having learned more about each partner’s history, I believe they are two highly ambitious individuals who benefit from their partnership. It’s a transaction: he gains a beautiful woman on his arm, a solid-seeming marriage, a son, and a savvy adviser. She gains wealth and international cachet.

By the end of the four-year term, Americans hold a bifurcated view of Mrs. Trump. Many Republicans, especially women, revere her as elegant, graceful, beautiful and wronged by the press. A pastor in Missouri held up Melania as a wifely model to which other women should aspire — or risk losing their men. At the same time some southern preachers referred to then-Senator and presidential candidate Kamala Harris as Jezebel, the Bible’s most nefarious woman and archetype of female cunning. There could be no surer sign that the life stories of prominent women affect the lives of private women than when pastors hold them up as positive or negative role models.

The only fears we have to fear is these fears itself.

Melania Trump wanted two things: a sugar daddy and to be an American citizen. She got, instead, the worse version of the American dream.

So far in my life, I’ve been a lawyer. I’ve been a vice president at a hospital and the director of a nonprofit that helps young people build meaningful careers. I’ve been a working-class black student at a fancy mostly white college. I’ve been the only woman, the only African American, in all sorts of rooms. I’ve been a bride, a stressed-out new mother, a daughter torn up by grief. And until recently, I was the First Lady of the United States of America—a job that’s not officially a job, but that nonetheless has given me a platform like nothing I could have imagined. It challenged me and humbled me, lifted me up and shrank me down, sometimes all at once. I’m just beginning to process what took place over these last years—from the moment in 2006 when my husband first started talking about running for president to the cold morning this winter when I climbed into a limo with Melania Trump, accompanying her to her husband’s inauguration. It’s been quite a ride.

Somtimes, in order to succeed, you must be willing to take risks and make tough decisions. You need to trust yourself and your abilities, and never settle for anything less than what you deserve.

The president and first lady arrived a few minutes later, and Trump immediately walked up to Hutson, ogled her up and down, and said to Giuliani, “Great job, Rudy!” (Melania Trump, disgusted by her husband’s leering, walked off and refused to pose for photographs.)

(What the Secret Service didn't know was that Melania Trump was also using the delay for leverage and personal financial gain; she wanted to renegotiate her prenuptial agreement with Trump to sweeten the settlement she'd receive in a divorce and secure a future role for her son in Trump's company.)

Life’s circumstances shape you in many ways, often entirely beyond your control—your birth, parental influences, and the world in which you grow up. As an adult, there comes a moment when you become solely responsible for the life you lead. You must take charge, embrace that responsibility, and become the architect of your own future.

Rolling through Manhattan in his limousine, Donald confided that he was nervous about his pending marriage to Slovenian model Melania Knauss, which was just ten days away. “It’s all in the hunt and once you get it, it loses some of its energy,” he said. “I think competitive, successful men feel that way about women. Don’t you agree? Really, don’t you agree?

Don't be fancy, just get dancy!

Who gives a f*ck about Christmas stuff and decoration, but I need to do it, right?

Although Donald and Marla were still married, she was already a distant memory, replaced by his new girlfriend, Melania, a twenty-eight-year-old Slovenian model whom I’d never met.

Melania Trump had come down and wandered behind the sofa where Conway was proposing they sit. It was clear she was seething. “Not doing that,” Melania said in her Slovenian accent, dismissively waving her hand. “No way. No, no, no.” Bannon believed she had the most influence with Trump of anyone, that she could discern who was sucking up and who was telling the truth. “Behind the scenes she’s a hammer.

With President Trump, however, the masculine archetype seems to have regressed. Trump is less the strict father than the petulant child: a boyish figure who rejects advice, shirks discipline and refuses to be beholden to behavioral norms. He is rarely even seen as the patriarch of his own family; as Melania Trump said after he was caught boasting about assaults on tape, “Sometimes I say I have two boys at home.

But the prospect of her husband’s actually becoming president was, for Melania, a horrifying one. She believed it would destroy her carefully sheltered life—one sheltered, not inconsiderably, from the extended Trump family—which was almost entirely focused on her young son.

Examples of Trump’s narcissism are legion and instructive. A widely photographed instance occurred in February 2018, when Trump, boarding Air Force One on a rainy day, held a large umbrella to cover his head in the storm without inviting his wife or young son to join him. While depriving Melania and Barron of cover from the rain, Trump was exhibiting textbook signs of two kinds of narcissism: primary narcissism, associated with survival, which was the impulse behind his disregarding his family’s comfort to ensure his own protection, and secondary narcissism, the impulse we connect to the familiar impulse to give oneself pleasure beyond mere survival

Donald Trump’s marriage was perplexing to almost everybody around him—or it was, anyway, for those without private jets and many homes. He and Melania spent relatively little time together. They could go days at a time without contact, even when they were both in Trump Tower. Often she did not know where he was, or take much notice of that fact. Her husband moved between residences as he would move between rooms. Along with knowing little about his whereabouts, she knew little about his business, and took at best modest interest in it. An absentee father for his first four children, Trump was even more absent for his fifth, Barron, his son with Melania. Now on his third marriage, he told friends he thought he had finally perfected the art: live and let live—“Do your own thing.

Shortly after eight o’clock that evening, when the unexpected trend—Trump might actually win—seemed confirmed, Don Jr. told a friend that his father, or DJT, as he called him, looked as if he had seen a ghost. Melania, to whom Donald Trump had made his solemn guarantee, was in tears—and not of joy.

Rudy Giuliani, you sexist mercurial asshat. Your friend Donald J. Trump's wife and this nation's reluctant First Lady, Melania, was an escort before entering into that sour marital accord with President blowhard. Naked photo's of her are everywhere- Facebook, Twitter, et al. And now that she's FLOTUS; we the people are to treat her with respect her own husband will not give her?

I believe Melania uses style to punish her husband.

Of the four elder Trump children, Eric was the easiest, always kind and pleasant to be around. I believe he was Melania’s favorite.

Obama read Where the Wild Things Are to the kids. Trump was not going to read in public if he could help it, not even a children’s book, so that duty fell on Melania, who entertained the kids by reading Kathie Lee Gifford’s Party Animals on the South Lawn with dignity and grace.

I believe Melania uses style to punish her husband. It’s my opinion that Melania was forced to go to the border that day in June, essentially, to mop up her husband’s mess.

What if Melania is a Red Sparrow?

Hillary, thinking Trump was a bigger donor than he actually was, had insisted they attend his 2005 wedding to Melania Knauss, despite a couple of aides warning her not to go. Hillary ended up sitting behind Shaquille O’Neal at the ceremony and could hardly see anything except the ninety meters of white satin tulle of Melania’s Dior gown pass down the aisle.

At around nine o’clock, the boss arrived in the war room on the fourteenth floor and stood in front of a wall mounted with six seventy-five-inch TVs, all showing different networks. The number of people in the room had somehow swelled. There were dozens of pizza boxes piled on the tables. Melania Trump was there, as were the Trump kids. Governor Mike Pence, his wife, Karen, and their daughter, Charlotte, were there. New Jersey Governor Chris Christie was there, as was Dr. Ben Carson. Bob Mercer, the reclusive conservative billionaire, was dressed in a dapper three-piece gray suit. Bannon said he looked like Rich Uncle Pennybags, the Monopoly man.

Jared called his father-in-law in the residence and tried to soft-pedal Vlasto’s numbers. “Melania,” Mr. Trump called to his wife, “Jared says we’re going to lose.” Mr. Trump then snapped his flip phone closed and tossed it across the room and onto the bed. “What a waste of time and money,” he said.

in DC. Why?” Johnny put the sandwiches down on a desk. “The boss just put me in charge of the inauguration. I need to get on a train to DC.” Dave and Steve looked at each other, and then let out a laugh. As told, Johnny had brought the sandwich up to the residence. When he got there, Mr. Trump was nowhere to be seen, but the next first lady, Melania, was in the living room with Stephanie

Marital Bliss Donald and Melania Trump are sitting in the White House one night watching Fox News. Suddenly, Melania reaches over and smacks her husband, knocking him off his chair. Donald crawls back up and whines, "What was that for?" She says, "For having a little pecker." He sits there quietly a moment, then leans over smacks her, knocking her off of her chair. She crawls back and complains, "What was that for?" He replies, "For knowing there is more than one size.

the fact that Trump said Melania better lose all the baby weight within a week of giving birth, or else, Nixon,

stiffed contractors on his behalf, ripped off his business partners, lied to his wife Melania to hide his sexual infidelities, and bullied and screamed at anyone who threatened Trump’s path to power.

she wore exactly the sort of high heels with red soles Melania Trump favored when visiting prisons for toddlers.

For those who care to know, Mrs. Trump “slapped” her husband’s hand away that day because she thought it was against protocol to hold hands at such a formal ceremony. Melania was a rule follower, sometimes to a fault, and her husband knew that. He often tried to hold her hand or messed with her hands on purpose in front of the cameras to irritate her. I found it amusing, but the press never seemed to like that explanation, even when I offered it.

At the White House, both Trumps prized a person’s loyalty to them above anything on their resume.

My father sometimes says I get too amped up, too aggressive. At Mar-a-Lago for the holidays, the show came up. Melania said it was amazing. My father, who is very difficult to impress, said, “When I heard you were going on that show, I thought you were out of your mind.” Usually, he would give me some pointers for the next time. Instead, he said, “I wouldn’t change a thing” about how we handled ourselves. “You’re good. That was amazing.” He hadn’t initially watched it because he thought it would be a disaster, but this is one of the few times he was genuinely impressed.

Effective immediately Ivanka will no longer be using her Trump Organization email address.” The new email used a family domain. Not a government one. Can you say “private server”?

In 2014, when he first seriously began to consider running for president, Melania was one of the few who thought it was possible he could win. It was a punch line for his daughter, Ivanka, who had carefully distanced herself from the campaign. With a never-too-hidden distaste for her stepmother, Ivanka would say to friends: All you have to know about Melania is that she thinks if he runs he’ll certainly win.

E' l'oppioide sintetico tra i potenti che esistano, 100 volte più potente della morfina, uno straordinario analgesico usato, sotto strettissimo controllo medico, per la gestione del dolore nei malati oncologici terminali, inserito nella lista dei farmaci essenziali per il trattamento dei tumori in stato avanzato, mentre, in combinazione con altre sostanze, viene impiegato in micro dosi nella anestesia generale profonda. [...] E' il farmaco che una settimana fa ha stecchito in pochi minuti un italiano di oltre 90 chili, lo chef trentanovenne Andrea Zamperoni a New York [...] Negli Stati Uniti sta creando più morti che gli incidenti stradali, ed è balzata in pochi anni al primo posto fra le cause di morte tra i giovani, al punto che lo stesso Donald Trump ha parlato di emergenza nazionale. [...] Purtroppo questo potente oppiaceo è stato intercettato dalla produzione e dal commercio illegale, utilizzato come sostituto economico dell'eroina, e più recentemente ha fatto il suo ingresso nel giro della cocaina, mischiato, all'insaputa degli acquirenti, per tagliare le partite di altri stupefacenti, aumentandone la pericolosità e le complicanze letali. Il mercato illegale inoltre, offre altri prodotti di sintesi derivati dal Fentanyl [...] negli Usa le più facili prescrizioni hanno fatto sì che arrivasse nel mondo dello spaccio, e recentemente la ditta Johnson & Johnson, storica produttrice di oppioidi, è stata condannata per aver spinto i medici a prescrivere stupefacenti, sottovalutando e minimizzando i gravi rischi.

think my father; since I’ve been a little girl has inspired me and had so much faith in me to be the best person I can be, the best woman I can be. And every time I speak to him on the phone, whether it’d be at school or in his office or in palm beach, he wants us to do the best and he has the utmost faith that we can accomplish whatever we set our minds to just as well as men if not better. We are so much strong, hard workers. Me and Ivanka and of course Melania. We just truly feel that my father is the best father, the best husband that he can be.

(I found out later that my lawyers had also represented various Trump-related entities. I wish I’d known sooner.) The finer points: (1) I would volunteer as a trusted advisor,

His first mistake. Never try to get money from a Trump after the fact.

As for how her name would appear on the program, Melania said, “I want to be listed as First Lady Melania Trump.” “That’s your official title but not until after the swearing-in ceremony,” I said. “Then call me First Lady–Elect.” “We can’t do that because you weren’t elected.” “That’s what I want.

son. The aide went on giddily talking about the special bond golfing dads have with their sons until it was clear that he was getting the Trump freeze—an ability to pretend you didn’t exist while at the same time intimating that he might kill you if you did. By contrast, Melania’s singular focus was her son. Together, mother and son occupied a bubble inside the Trump bubble. She assiduously protected Barron from his father’s remoteness. Ever cold-shouldered by Trump’s adult children, Melania

Melania sometimes spoke Slovenian with Barron, particularly when her parents were around—and they were frequently around—infuriating Trump and causing him to bolt from any room they were in.

When asked in a Howard Stern interview in 2005, if he’d stay with Melania if she was in a disfiguring car accident: “How do the breasts look?
