Probably his new mistress. Or her super-secret secret service codename.

I don’t know how wise it is to fuel paranoia in a psychopath, but we’re going to find out.

My guess is that it was a spell-check error; “Melania” got corrected to “Melanie” and wasn’t noticed.

Look at the picture in the link. Can you honestly believe he has a “pet name” for her, or her for him?

Except that if you type a Proper Noun often enough on your phone (which is what he seems to do), spell-check usually automatically defaults to the version with the most frequent occurrence. So that means he’s not used to typing his own wife’s name very often (including his personal life, which his phone would remember too).

> With every passing day I become more convinced than ever that Rudy Giuliani is criminally insane. If the FBI plants an informant in your organization, it is because it is a criminal enterprise. Dumb Donald and his batshit fan posse may see it as proof of the deep state conspiracy against him, but anyone not requiring anti-psychotic meds isn’t going to see it that way.

I’m not disagreeing with the idea that Giuliani is insane. But I don’t agree with the idea that if the FBI investigates an organization it must be a criminal organization. The FBI has an unfortunate history of investigating legitimate organizations, like the civil rights movement, because of their politics in hopes that it could find some crimes to charge them with.

I want to emphasize that I don’t think that’s the case here. If the FBI was investigating the Trump campaign it’s because there was evidence if was taking illegal foreign assistance.

And let’s not forget the reality here: Comey went public with the FBI investigation of the Clinton campaign two weeks before Election Day while maintaining confidentiality about the FBI investigation of the Trump campaign.

Yes. But I think it’s way too much to expect of spell checking software to know to substitute, “Hateful bitch” & “Disgusting swine”, for Melanie and Asshole, respectively.

Maybe he was trying to type Мелания but his phone’s spell check went with “Melanie”.

I should be asleep now, but can’t sleep. So, I decided, “What the hey.” I just looked at a Russian keyboard layout:  
[ul][li]“Мелания” maps to “Vtkfybz” on the US English QWERTY keyboard.[/ul][/li]  
Maybe I should see what “Melania” maps to on the Russian board.  
[ul][li]“Ьудфтшф”[/ul][/li]  
Nope, that’s no better. Maybe it’s simply that Occupy White House, the ignoramus, is so self-absorbed, he just can’t be bothered to know that much about someone who should be the most important person in his life.

That’s not how trump composed nicknames.  
He’d say: Angry Melania, Bitter Melania, Gloomy Melania or something alike.

At best, _second_ most important.

“I hereby demand, and will do so officially tomorrow, that the Department of Justice look into whether or not the FBI/DOJ infiltrated or surveilled the Trump Campaign for Political Purposes - and if any such demands or requests were made by people within the Obama Administration!”

It never ceases to amaze me that this guy never seems to realize that he’s the boss of the DOJ and can just do things with them, but at the same time, thinks he can do all sorts of things that Presidents don’t have to power to do (like ordering the USPS to double rates for Amazon).

The investigation could take a day, at most. One page, one paragraph: “We looked, and found evidence that the investigation into the Trump campaign’s links to Russia were politically motivated or ordered by the Obama Administration. Now go away or I shall taunt you a second time.”

I bet Trump did not type that out. No way could he “surveilled” as by himself. And I can just picture Giuliani looking over his shoulder dictating to him (wrongly of course.
