I posted this in the ‘Clusterfuck’ thread but it probably works better here… Looks like Melania was really enjoying the UFC fight last night: [![](https://media-cldnry.s-nbcnews.com/image/upload/t_fit-860w,f_auto,q_auto:best/rockcms/2026-06/260615-ufc-white-house-mb-1033-9ca858.jpg) ](https://media-cldnry.s-nbcnews.com/image/upload/t_fit-860w,f_auto,q_auto:best/rockcms/2026-06/260615-ufc-white-house-mb-1033-9ca858.jpg) The last time I remember seeing her with an expression like that in a pic was this one, looking at Canadian PM Trudeau: [![](https://www.irishtimes.com/resizer/v2/MTWSMC6XHHSPUVA5QWB36KQJ3Y.jpg?auth=879bfeb61d9b8e9c4bf5da707db54463c85d856daeb49883e511240ffd8a7c68&smart=true&width=1600&height=1600) ](https://www.irishtimes.com/resizer/v2/MTWSMC6XHHSPUVA5QWB36KQJ3Y.jpg?auth=879bfeb61d9b8e9c4bf5da707db54463c85d856daeb49883e511240ffd8a7c68&smart=true&width=1600&height=1600) She’s probably also made that expression immediately after one of those times she allegedly renegotiated her prenup to be more favorable to her. ---

He’s looked every minute of his age and then some on the trip. I know it’s like convincing a toddler but if any of the folks in the White House actually want him around for much longer, one of them should get him to actually sleep at night instead of poring over social media. At least 7-8 hours, 7 nights a week. And maybe take more exercise than driving a golf cart around. ---
