That speechwriter must have hated her guts to have her read that plagiarized bit. I wonder how she (he?) was punished. ---

[She wasn’t.](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meredith_McIver) She basically took the fall for Melania. ---

> [@needscoffee](#): > > Gotta be from Slovenians. I’m doubtful. I was in Slovenia a couple months ago, and in talking to the locals, the impression I got was that they’re sort of embarrassed that’s she’s their, let’s call it, informal national ambassador. They’d acknowledge her, but there were other Slovenes they were more enthusiastic about promoting and embracing as representative of their country on the world stage (e.g. the captain of the L.A. hockey team). ---

I mean say what you want about Eva Braun but she was a class act: she stuck by her man, didn’t give him grief about wanting to get married, but he still put a ring on it in the end. ---

#1 was Jackie Kennedy, #2 was Michelle Obama, #3 was Dolley Madison. Melania might make #4. ---

**Frances Cleveland** had the advantage of being young due to some squickiness. She was Cleveland’s ward first. Married the 49 year old Cleveland at age 21. She married him between his terms as President. She was quite attractive. ETA: My mistake, they were married in June 2, 1886, in the [Blue Room](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_Room_(White_House)) of the [White House](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_House). during his first term. I think **Grace Coolidge** was 46 when she became first lady and was very pleasant looking. I didn’t like her, but **Nancy Reagan** looked better for 60 than Melania looked for 46 in 2016. There is something about Melania I don’t really find all that attractive. And if we compare their respective heydays. Model vs Actress, Nancy easily wins for me. To me **Jackie Kennedy** was easily the best looking first lady. So those are my 4 I guess. ---

Anthony Bourdain!? Iirc he said something similar about Russian women. Maybe he was in a frozen vodka bar or outside sitting naked on a block of ice. 🤷‍♀️ but I remember the cold as a fistful of quarters. Melania has good hair, but her eyes are toooooo close together her pupillary distance must be extremely small. ---
