anything but black or brown. No fashion sense at all. Can't understand. Maybe Michelle could turn her on to a few designers who use color.

or a very dark mauve. I like the color - the cut makes it look like a costume from an opera staging that didn't quite work.

It vaguely resembles the coats some of the people in the parade were wearing. Honestly, I don't give a shit about her coat. I am just horrified that she is even there in that capacity in the first place.

Don’t know who designed that coat but it looks like she can’t move her arms.
Odd.

Odd, indeed. Got to wonder if they were fake, and that her actual arms were not tied up so that she couldn't punch her asshole husband in the face. I think she's looking for a chance to flee. (Joking. Not joking.)

That's what makes the whole thing so bizarre. She just stood there nodding at everyone, with her arms dangling there like she was Sponge Bob Square Pants.

Jeezus, what a fucking clown. And, what's with his wife? Is that goofy coat she's wearing prohibiting her from shaking anyone's hand? It's like she can't move her arms from her side.

Who is that middle-aged blonde woman in the purple dress with the black jacket?

PLEASE HURRY, MR. MUELLER!!!!

shows that they are treating him like the toddler he is. Behind his back you know that other world leaders have to be discussing "How do you solve a problem like the Donald?" He is foolish to take how they treat him in public as a sign of how much they respect him, they don't. They all recognize him to be a fool, dangerous with his access to the nuclear codes, but a fool to be sure. That he could be so easily lulled by the false words that dictators like Saudi Arabia and Putin whisper in his ear proves what a fool he is.
