Melania Trump Takes Her Grift to Fox News, Giving as Little in Interview as Asked

Share

Melania Trump appeared on Fox News Tonight interviewed by a childlike creature called Ainsley Earheardt. It was an infomercial for her book, called “Melania,” a more expensive book called “Melania,” and various cheap trinkets.

We can only imagine the first book will have as little information as the interview. The book promises her “true story” but we got nothing in the Fox interview about anything.

Stormy Daniels? Not asked, but Donald is “a family man.” Trump’s 32 felony convictions? E Jean Carroll? Nothing.

Family stuff? Zip. We don’t find out how Melania blended into the Trump family, how she gets along with Ivanka, whether or not Barron has learning challenges. Why did she remove him from the Republican convention? That would be an interview.

Melania seems like a robot, programmed to carry out her task. Earheardt, who is an airhead, cried at one point and invoked born again Christianity. She is as much a journalist as Melania is a First Lady. They never discuss where Melania lives, where she took care of her mother, did she help Barron with SATs, nothing.

They didn’t talk about the Rose Garden destruction Melania led during her time at the White House. Does she read books? Magazines? Does she have a favorite TV show? Does she have friends she depends on in tough times?

“Melania” is number 1 on amazon but soon we will learn about the bulk orders from the RNC and Christian groups. It’s pathetic.

What I’d like to see is some outfit like “Mystery Science Theater” do job on this interview. And if “SNL” doesn’t open with a parody this week, it will be disappointing.
