Now I ain't saying she a gold digger...

But she ain't messin with...

Hold on.

On second thought, yeah, that's exactly what I'm saying. FFS, she decided to become Donald Trump's third wife. She's not remotely surprised by the number of women Trump has sexually assaulted. Part of the deal.

Involved, not screwing, because his fragile small-handed state makes him incapable of erection.

and I suspect this time around, the pre-nup is pretty damned iron-clad. I hope she's been stowing away some incriminating (criminal) documents for leverage... that's all I am going to say.

I loathe ALL the Trumps, and I am quite sure Trump and Melania have a quid pro quo marriage, but there are a lot of ways of saying that without what is very much considered a gendered insult.

That phrase is followed by an offensive racist word.

The OP is referencing the song to make a point.

I'll never know what she sees in him but I don't like that term either. It's used to belittle women and it's almost never used on men.

Women know women. Every woman who has been touched by this type of behavior from men could tell the minute she opened her mouth she was lying. Sympathy my a**. She's just afraid to lose all that money, the penthouse, the charge accounts, etc. I'm sure there's a pre-nup in place that doesn't favor Ms. Trump. Sitting up there in her penthouse that's 3 or 4 times the size of a family home with gold toilets, gold everywhere.Show us your papers Melania! When you show us your papers we might give you a listen.
