> Mrs. Trump said she is now negative and hopes to resume her duties soon.
Lol, what was her duty again?

Not giving a fuck.

Also she stated she was grateful for her medical team and Dr. Conly.

So did Melania get Regeneron too? At our expense?

Her legacy will be interesting. Laura Bush tried to get kids to read, Michelle Obama tried to get kids to eat healthier.. Melania doesn't care about kids in fucking cages or fucking christmas.

Our history books are going to need parental advisory stickers.

You don’t think the president and First Lady should receive medical attention at our expense?

IMO it's not that it's unreasonable for the president+FL to receive medical care on the govt dime, it's more about emphasizing that it's taxpayer money that we are talking about so that everyone realizes the magnitude of his indifference.

So when Trump refuses to engage in/endorse even the most basic level of public disease prevention and then unsurprisingly gets sick, it is our money he is throwing away. He comes out and says "look it's no big deal, couple days in the hospital, whatever" while we picked up the ~$100k+ hospital bill and real average Americans who have been hospitalized have received personal bills of up to $400,000.

She is leading a campaign to end cyber-bullying. With the help of the office of the president of the United States she will stop those who choose to use social media such as twitter and Facebook to attack others and also to spread lies online. God bless her and god bless her husband for providing the support to finally end cyber-bullying!

what was her duty again?

Standing there and looking hot.

Have you seen her?

u/MBAMBA3 Oct 15 '20

Come on now, she is fairly 'beautiful' in context of other first ladies. It is part of Trump's narcissism he needs to be seen besides 'hot' women.
