Melania Trump says she is one of the most bullied people in the world; distrusts some in the West Wing originally appeared on abcnews.go.com
First lady Melania Trump told ABC News in an exclusive interview that she has told her husband there have been people in his administration she didn't trust who worked for him.
She also said she believes she is one of the most bullied people in the world.
Asked by ABC News Chief National Affairs Correspondent Tom Llamas whether there are still people in the president’s administration "he can't trust," the first lady said yes.

"It's harder to govern," the first lady said in a clip set to air Thursday on " Good Morning America. " "You always need to watch your back."
The first lady's comments come on the heels of a recent op-ed in The New York Times by an anonymous senior Trump administration official who claimed that many senior officials are trying to "frustrate parts of [Trump's] agenda."
Trump blasted the essay on Twitter as "gutless" before sending out a one-word tweet: "TREASON?"

ABC News' wide-ranging interview with the first lady took place in Africa, where she traveled to promote her "Be Best" campaign, which raises awareness about online bullying.
The first lady explained how her experience being bullied led in part to her "Be Best" initiative.
"I could say that I'm the most bullied person in the world," Melania Trump said.
Pressed by Llamas on that assertion, she responded, "One of them -- if you really see what people are saying about me."

Melania Trump says she is one of the most bullied people in the world; distrusts some in the West Wing
I would bet her scumbag husband is one of the scum in the West Wing whom she distrusts.
So true. They even went after her young son.
We shall overcome!
She looks plastic to me.
fantastic
egg incubator ?
Looks aside, (she was a model after all) she gets all respect due any First Lady
Respect must be earned. People respect the position but not the current person who occupies that position.
Why should I respect a model?
Like Michelle Obama did?
Really??? Like, why should I respect an attorney (Michelle Obama)???
Maybe they hate Trump and are such scum that they have to hate his family as well?
Did I nail it or what?
You Bet! They kissed her ass!
Oh bullshit. We both know Mrs Obama got it way worse than poor Mrs trump.
Nope, I'll say it again THEY KISSED HER ASS
And congratulations, I knew somebody would bring her into it
She claimed to be bullied but ignored the obvious fact that her husband is the most vocal political bully in the US. Why should I respect that person? Maybe you think that I should respect her abilities to plagiarize Michelle Obama or is it because Melania is white?
Oh, the race card? Already??
Not all attorneys are amoral ambulance chasers or lobbyists. Michelle did earn her degrees with honors, is well spoken and had an agenda to improve childhood nutrition.
Her husband is an overt racist, as is the conservative GOP policy of racist dog whistles. The racism of the GOP cannot and should not be ignored. If you don't like being called a racist then don't support it or don't ignore it.
Why not bring her up? The whole premise of this article is about how bad poor Mrs trump has it. How she is treated so horribly, when she has had it no where near as bad as her predecessor.
Bring race into it? the right did that constantly.
And who is they? Oh yeah, the liberal media mantra.
Are you referring to Peter Fonda? That's hardly they. One instance is all you got
Hey! She’s an Einstein according to US Immigration.
And as every horny teenage boy with an Internet connection in America has seen by now, she looks good completely naked, particularly when wrapped up in the arms of another hot nude woman. I’d post the pics but it would cost me another ticket or two. What a lady!
They say she was a model. Is that what they're calling soft core porn stars nowadays?
So nothing until she does something to earn it?
what is she selling? If you want to be taken seriously, don't go and stand in front of the Great Pyramid as if you are posing for a fashion magazine.
You can take the girl out of the runway, but you can't take the runway out of the girl.
Hot dog down a hallway?
I think it is a beautiful photo. The camera loves her.
I don't have anything against the woman, but she really is an insignificant first lady.
If she comes out and denounces her husband that would be notable and useful. Short of that, focusing any attention at all on her is a waste of time.
I think he has her so bullied, she won't speak up.
It's a post dated check that concerns her the most.
Posing is one of her few job skills. She certainly looks bullied to me, but only by a fashion designer.
She is dressed like she is trying to bring back colonial Egypt under the British.
There is nothing wrong with wanting to look good in a photo.
As the First Lady she has a public image that she is presenting that is more than just personal visual aesthetics.
Where this is true, at least she looks good while she is doing it.
I don't see that as something to be proud of. I'd much rather have a First Lady who is intelligent and well spoken than to have someone who is a a mannequin for fashionable clothes.
Sounds like someone's jealous.
Teabags are grateful that there's finally a FLOTUS they can jerk off to since the Wasilla skank did a face plant.
Especially when they imagine Melania's girl on girl porn.
While they oppose LGBT equality.
She'd be back making 5 minute BJ videos in Slovenia by now if she hadn't whelped mushroom dick junior.
She has plenty of money of her own. I hope she finally divorces Trump, tells him to shove his money, grab Baron and head home. Then she should petition Slovenia to ban her ex from the country, permanently. Slovenia would treat her as royalty and she would want for nothing.
Whenever I hear her speak I get an earworm of the Rocky and Bullwinkle cartoon theme.
Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and to remove all doubt.

The more she speaks the stupider she looks.
she sucked a poison mushroom
LOLOLOLOL "stupider"...... LOL, irony
Actually, I find that some of the most intelligent authors I've read use variations of words that are uncommon, but grammatically correct. Christopher Hitchens is one.
You might need to brush up on your grammar. LOLOLOLOL
georgia public schools. derp.
Stupid, stupider, stupidest, LOLOLOLOL
From The Game Plan -
"Stupid is a mean word Mr. Cooper." (Payton)
"I didn't say stupid. I said stupidest. Look it up." (Cooper)
I'm not sure she knows what bullying is.
Also ironic, considering her husband is the king of online bullying.
Exactly why I don't think she knows what it means to be bullied.
Maybe she should block her husband.
Trump treats her like a queen as he should. But you never miss an opportunity to hate
yeah, a porn queen. now explain away his adultery with Stormy while he was married to melania, preacher.
Is that why he had an affair with a porn star weeks after she gave birth to Barron?
Would Jesus defend Donald Trump?
Yes 'pastor' please explain that to us would ya?
How do you explain Bill Clinton's adultery with Monica when he was married to Hillary? How do you explain JFK's adultery when he was married to Jackie?
but, but, but, got anything from this century? Neither of those you've mentioned were getting their asses licked by hypocritical teavangelicals at the time.
But the liberals had their heads shoved up their asses big time especially Clinton's
Oops! I forgot that it is the exclusively for the left to use examples of others doing the same thing.
You do realize he left office 20 years ago, right? How in the fuck is he relevant to the current pouts? Besides, Billy only had 10 accusers, trump is North of 15. Oops, guess trump is worse!!!!!
As long as you insult my title I’m through responding to you. It’s not done to any other person on this site
hallelujah. much easier than a biblical explanation I guess, and anyone with $25 and an internet connection can have that title in this country.
Bush was 10 years ago and Reagan was 30 years ago yet the left doesn't have a problem bringing them up.
[deleted]
No one else uses their "title" to hypocritically attack "liberals" every time they come on here, no one else comes on here claiming to be "a man of God" and, judges people based on his own misconceptions.
I don't bring them up unless they are the topic, like you just did. very time there is a republican accused of sexual assault, the right goes to, "but......but.....but....BILL!!!!!!", it's right there in the conservative handbook. But hey, since you went there. Remember Gingrich screaming about Bill's lack of morality.....while he was banging two women behind his wife's back? What's that word I am looking for......oh yea.. HYPOCRISY!
He cheated on her with a porn star, then paid her off to keep quiet.. How is that treating her like a Queen? Seriously, how the eff can you even SUGGEST that? Wow.
I wonder if Jesus ever grabbed Mary Magdalene by the p***y in LiveFreeorDie's preferred translation of the Bible?
Nah, Jesus was gay...He probably groped John though!
Well praise the Lord! Hallelujah! Thank you 'pastor'
You're welcome not to post on my seeds at all 'pastor'
Praise Jesus!
Also wasn't Newt's current wife sick and dying of cancer and in the hospital while he was banging other women?
Yes she was.
As he cheats on her repeatedly. But hey, those are those Christian values right? Man I love people like you, you remind me exactly why I distrust christians.
You should find the clip where she was behind him, all smiles until he turned and said something to her. She looked like someone gut punched her afterwards. If he treats her like a queen, it is more on the line of how Henry treated Anne.
You mean this clip:
Looks like she was devastated. He smiled at Ivanka and I would love to know what that piece of shit said to Melania. That smug prick face when he turned back to the cameras
Yes. He doesn't treat her like a queen. He treats her like the TP next to his throne.
My favorite was the guy who literally wanted Clinton's head on a stick. He threw his righteous indignation around the hearings like dollar bills at a Chippendale show with his wife AND mistress in the gallery.
Newt Gingrich? His former mistress and current Stepford wife is now the US Ambassador to the Vatican.
No, not Newt. He had greasy black hair and buggy eyes.
Are you referring to Ken Starr?
I wish I could remember who it was.
Yep, I have the .gif of it.. LOL
I think she's been cock blocking him for some time, probably around the time the Stormy Daniels business became public knowledge.
he was done with her when she got pregnant. all she is now is a nanny and spokes-model with a golden parachute.
Actually, I have to agree with you 100%.
Whenever I see a photo of Melania I see a determined look that reminds me of the differences of eastern vs western European characteristics and tendencies.
I am reminded of that older song about west end girls, only in reverse.
When pressed, they have a strong determination for self preservation. They will put up with shit if in their determination the end result will be better for them. They certainly do not let western values get in the way of that. I can't blame them, as western values can often be bullshit and impractical. They are even physiologically different.
The ones I know, technically are every bit as 21st century as anyone in the west. Yet part of them seems as raised in our 1960s while another part as our 1950s and a deeper part from imperial times and the importance of self preservation.
Part of me feels sorry for her while the other side realizes, if I assume correctly, has an assured golden parachute.
Adding to your hypothesis is the unique American cultural experience, especially for non-american women, as an unknown variable. she has a chance of cultural rehabilitation. her husband has been a lost cause since the 70's.
My thoughts are primarily from my experiences with my beautiful friends in my avatar. Also, a third friend not pictured.
Their non-American upbringing results in a noticeably different character. They cherish honesty, but have tolerated shit their pasts.
Trump is Trump. I could be wrong, but I sense Melania is in the tolerating shit mode.
Do you have an intimate relationship with all three of these beautiful women?
My perspective comes from 3 Latinas that have joined my family. 1 Columbian, 1 Peruvian, and 1 Mexican, all from patriarchal cultures. They all have had their preexisting social and cultural governors removed. They don't tolerate any shit at all.
No.
That's great. There was once a time when the Americas were not as patriarchal. Much of that history was destroyed, but archaeology has slowly been uncovering.
These days a lot of past work is coming to fruition and we are learning more than we would have imagined possible by those ancients.
Though we were taught the First Peoples were stupid savage hunter gatherers, were are learning how wrong that story is.
Have you had opportunities to talk with them to see if they were taught of their cultures prior to the arrival of the Spanish?
They all deny any native lineage, but the Aztec, Mayan, or Inca characteristics are obvious in 2. All three brandish their new found feminist equality like weapons and are all very politically oriented now. They have also rejected the past strict religious doctrines of Catholicism in their recent cultural adaptations, which I find both remarkable and awesome.
Then that tells me, the societies from which they came suffer from similar issues as ours. Most likely, they haven't learned about their pre-Spanish history and culture.
They have every reason to be proud of their past culture.
I am a little busy now, but I have links somewhere to some easy watching videos covering a small handful of some the South American cultures.
If you are interested, I can post some of these links later tonight or tomorrow.
I don't doubt that one bit, Melania has been bullied her entire life. This is why she has such a hard, cold look in her eyes. A warm, caring, loving man could melt her, it might take awhile though. I hope she gets rid of her scumbag husband soon, and has a chance at a happy life surrounded by people who love and respect her.
Well, "Bless Her Heart"...
First Lady Melania bullied?
Well, she's 'married' to the Trump.
And First Lady Melania does not trust some in The West Wing?
Well lets see. Kelly, Bolton, Miller, Gorka, Shine, Conjob, Sanders and the rest of the crew. What's to trust?
Slovenia awaits, Melania. Get away from these folk. Take the money and run.
''I'm one of the most bullied people in the world''....LMAO, seems that she following in her husbands footsteps regarding the truth...
Cry me a fucking river. Man, that bitch has some balls...
nah, she spits them out.
I watched her interview last night.
The woman is completely out of touch with reality.
brain damage from the headboard
She brings class back to the White House compared to the last "First Lady"
If you mean by being an out of touch snob that has no idea of what is going on, sure.
I was not aware that a penchant for plagiarism and doing softcore porn is something to be admired by conservative Christians.
Yet Vanessa Williams did a nude silhouette photo shoot for a photographer interested in doing graphic arts ( I have never seen the photos) prior to her pageant career
and just the rumor of them forced her to resign her Miss America crown in 1984.
"We've come a long way, baby" /s
Yep, now the "soft core porn star" is the FLOTUS. #NOCLASS
I remember the right coming unglued because she wore a dress that showed her arms, but Malaria Trump poses completely naked, in bed with another woman and the right can't say enough nice things about her? Hypocrite alert!
"ees so deefeecult behink furst laydee dahlink. dos comon merrikan pehsunt mek fun off me all dee time. dey haf no reespec fo merrikan royaltee. mek fun off cloz, mek fun off poz, mek fun off evreetink. all beecus huzpen try to safe cuntree like vlad in russia.

The only time she is bright is when donny throws a lamp at her.
