First Lady Suggests People Losing Healthcare Should Rely on Nature for Cures

[JHan]

“I am a passionate believer in integrating and interpreting nature’s elements into our daily lives to create a warm, nurturing and positive environment. I believe that these same natural benefits can be instrumental to enhancing the health and well-being of all children.”

While the First Lady likely intended her comments to be benign, the timing is especially inconvenient as her husband seeks to take away the ACA from millions of Americans without a suitable replacement ready to go.

Mrs. Trump’s views on healthcare seem to echo those of her husband as President Trump has made several false claims on the healthcare system. After all, just earlier this week, the POTUS declared that “nobody knew” healthcare could be so complicated.

eat kale y'all

EDIT: Yes, the headline is petty as heck but right on target.

[50 Shades Of Blue]

1. Right, you just tell that to parents struggling to even keep a roof over their heads, lady!

[Afromania]

2. I wonder if there is a all natural version of Botox.

[3catwoman3]

8. Or silicon...

...boobs.

[angstlessk]

3. Hell, she can now introduce a new 'natural' cure for what ails you

be it organ failure or cancer.... MONEY TO BE MADE!!!!!!

[rzemanfl]

4. This is the woman who rubs her son with caviar. n/t

[LisaL]

10. Caviar is all natural.

[leftstreet]

37. It rubs the caviar on its skin, it does this whenever its told

Thanks for the reminder of the caviar photo

[bdamomma]

5. What????????????

your husband wants to kill nature, you stupid beetch.

[rzemanfl]

15. Allow me to be the first to say I don't give a shit about your use of

a gendered insult. I wish you well in the coming storm.

6. How do you commune with the natural world and "integrate nature's elements"

when you live in the middle of Manhattan in a high-rise penthouse in which everything has apparently been spray-painted with gilt paint from Menard's and that looks like a French Baroque bordello?

[JHan]

17. speaking of the french..

it sounds like she a "marie antoinette" moment.

[Gabi Hayes]

30. let me try this: il faut les hoi polloi mangent les oeuves des

stank ceviches?

[anneboleyn]

38. LET THEM EAT CAKE (brioche, I know, and it's from Rousseau, not Marie Antoinette)

And "hoi polloi" is also already plural (Greek for "the many" or "the majority&quot

Melania sounds like the exact image of Marie Antoinette that has come down through history -- too much money, too separated from the reality of daily life for the majority of the people, and offering silly advice/comments to people who need REAL HELP.

[Gabi Hayes]

41. also, the masses, commoners, etc....pejorative sense

that's what I was going for

marie A always makes me think of this

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0084423/

La Nuit de Varennes

saw it back in the 80s....made an impression then....wonder if I'd like it now

[eleny]

7. Time for a large dose of "shaddap"

[Squinch]

9. Third lady, if you please.

[3catwoman3]

16. Third...

...woman.

Her photographic past is revealing of many things, chief among which is that she is no lady.

[JHan]

21. Those photos were sexy-- I don't think her nudity in the past makes her any less of a lady..

And I know, the Conservatives engaged in racist hypocrisy when they attacked Michelle Obama for baring her beautiful arms.

It's Melania's empty headedness, lack of intellectual curiosity (something she shares with her husband) about anything and contentment with just being an ornament that bothers me, it's unbecoming for a First Lady. For all her looks, she's a wallflower.... she just enjoys being a trophy wife.

[3catwoman3]

11. Tea tree oil and...

...eye of newt for everyone.

[JHan]

12. ...........and toe of frog.

[3catwoman3]

20. Thanks. I just...

...knew I was forgetting something.

[JHan]

22. lol..:D

[COLGATE4]

60. It's SO hard to get good toe of frog these days.

Where do you do your shopping?

[Barack_America]

13. So why is her house gold?

A more garish and unnatural home I've not seen.

[sarcasmo]

14. Maybe it's the caviar baths?

[HipChick]

18. Steve Jobs tried that...

and see where he ended up..

[Docreed2003]

32. Except that's not true...

Ole Stevie got treatment that any other person would not have received. I can't really get into details in a public forum.

[Doreen]

26. Thank you for that delightful picture.

[Skittles]

44. her name is Melania

and why such an ugly thought? She is clueless but we don't wish her any physical harm, even metaphorically

[Maru Kitteh]

23. Is that why she rubs Barron down "from head to toe" with fish eggs each night?

Reposted from an earlier entry:

Apparently before The Donald ordered the summary execution of his wife's website, she sold $150/oz skin cream made from caviar. Now that all of her enterprises have gone the way of Trump steaks, I wonder if she has to douse young master Trump with more pedestrian fish eggs instead. Perish the thought.

A 2013 interview with ABC and repeated in the Daily Mail reported:

Barron is 'not a sweatpants child' and instead likes to wear a tie and suit 'like Daddy'.

He also enjoys luxurious caviar skin treatments every night after taking a bath at his family home - the gold-encrusted $100 million triplex penthouse in New York's Trump Tower.

The mother-of-one said that she slathers her eponymous Caviar Complex C6 moisturizer on her son's body from 'head to toe.'

'He likes it . . . It smells very, very fresh,' she explained.

On a side note, Trump always looks stiff, forced, and cruel with children. Melania looks pissed at him for manhandling her little "mini-Donald" like he is, and as usual, young Barron looks like the loneliest kid on Earth. What a bizarre and unnatural experience his life must be.

[Doreen]

29. I don't know, there's somthing fishy about that.

[Maru Kitteh]

46. That kid is perched for a crappie upbringing.

[Doreen]

47. He will be just like daddy.

Spoiled with an entitlement issue.

[Maru Kitteh]

50. Awwww. I thought we were going to do terrible puns.

about fish.

[Doreen]

56. Sorry, I am punless right now.

[Solly Mack]

24. ...

[JHan]

28. yup ++++++100000000000000000000

[HughBeaumont]

25. You know what's funny?

At first read, I thought this was a slur article against Michelle Obama.

Then I realized "Holy shit, this is about Melania."

"Michelle Obama isn't our first lady anymore."

And now I'm sad that it's sunken in.

[JHan]

27. Yes! I had the same reaction when I came across the link.. sigh.

[Kingofalldems]

31. Let them eat cake!

[JDC]

55. Crap, you beat me to it...

[smirkymonkey]

33. Thank you Marie Antionette!

You remember how she ended up, don't you? Disgusting!

How out of touch can she be?

[RoadhogRidesAgain]

53. Are we going to have our own French Revolution moment?

[elfin]

34. Soon Slovenian Magic Melania Miracle creams on HSN!

Just keeping her "brand" alive until after the lawsuit where she settles for whatever mega bundle the paper's insurance will offer. That should get her con off the ground until she splits.

[SHRED]

35. So if I get hit by a car I'll eat kale?

[BarbaRosa]

36. This comming from someone who can't get through a weekend

under a million dollars.

[Cha]

39. Yeah, that's fine.. what about broken bones, pre-existing

cancer.. etc etc?

Besides our Real First Lady has already Covered that.. as well as Health Care for The People.

So I suggest to you, melania.. that if you care so much.. tell that miserly curmudgeon asshole of yours to NOT take away their health care.

[LOL Lib]

40. F Melanoma!

She wants my Grandma to rub sticks and turpentine on her arthritic joints and yet I get lambasted if I call Melanoma the C word. LOL things are really twisted. FML!

[hatrack]

42. "integrating and interpreting nature's elements into our daily lives . . . " WTF??!!

Nature's elements - you mean like oxygen, hydrogen, carbon?

Uh yeah, we're all doing that already.

[Skittles]

43. translation: I refused to accept my son is autistic

therefore, he needs no treatment

[Warpy]

45. Sure, honey, as soon as the Drug War is ended and we get the ones that work back

You know, like cannabis and various forms of opium and coca leaves.

[BumRushDaShow]

48. Meanwhile her husband it trying to kill off all nature

by re-poisoning the air, water, and food.

This is what they really want -

[liberal N proud]

49. Melani is married to a cheeto, who is going to listen?

[MFM008]

51. Eat grass you peasants

How's that for nature.

[Lotusflower70]

52. Yeah right

Because she is oh so natural herself. I hate when stupid people speak.

[ananda]

57. Start growing those herb gardens, ya'll.

Sheesh

[C_U_L8R]

58. I expected Melanie to start pitching...

'Can I interest you in the multilevel opportunities of Herbalife?'

[dalton99a]

59. Somebody put the wrong tape in the mannequin.

[littlemissmartypants]
