    Other attendees on Tuesday will include President Joe Biden and first lady Jill Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris… …former first ladies Laura Bush, Michelle Obama and Melania Trump

    Odd to see this name show up. At least her husband won’t be there to try to make it about himself.

        Every now and then I seem to develop some sort of sympathy for her. It’s painfully obvious she’s a trophy wife, and she didn’t sign up for any of this political bullshit. It’s equally obvious she’s just in it for what she thought was the money. She signed up to sit around, fuck an old man for a few years until he died, and life a posh life sleeping with the bodyguard or doorman to keep herself entertained until he did.

        His foray into politics, and I think, winning the Presidency is probably her worst case scenario. I take her “I don’t really care…” sweater at face value – she doesn’t care. She didn’t want it, she doesn’t care about it, and she kind of just wants to go back to being a pretty face whose name you can’t quite remember.

        Then I remember she not only enabled her husband, but actively supported him during his Presidency. Fuck that bitch. She made her choice, even if it’s for silly reasons.
