Unique "friends"
How many have a friend, who is secretly recording you to profit from humiliating you?
Don't have one, you say? You only need to be the wife of the man the radical left hates.
Yesterday the resistance anchor over at CNN found one. Her name was Stephanie Wolkoff.
And the interview went like this:
Notice t he woman who taped her ‘friend’ looks deeply uncomfortable, as though she already knows betrayal is not a good look. The tape will never damage the reputation of Melania Trump, but it is just the latest in the never ending media assault on the President leading into the November 3rd election. As with Judas , the mark is on the betrayer rather than the betrayed. Looking at Ms Wolkoff's face, I believe she already knows it.
It is always sad when we cannot trust our friends to speak freely.
Then again this is the world of the left in 2020

Since the term "friend" hardly applies, what do we call Ms Wolkoff?
patriot.
Narc
Take your pick -- Benedict Arnold, Tokyo Rose, the Rosenbergs, John Walker, Jr..
It's more akin to a mob informant than a traitor to our nation. Patriotic Americans are not loyal to a President, we are loyal to the constitution.
That's true, because by the time she started recording her the Trump organization and Melania herself had already thrown her "friend" under the bus claiming the missing money and mismanagement of the inauguration funds was somehow her fault.
"Melania and the White House had accused me of criminal activity and publicly shamed and fired me and made me their scapegoat." At that point, the first lady was "no longer my friend," Winston Wolkoff continued. "She was willing to let them take me down, and she told me herself this is the way it has to be. She was advised by the attorneys at the White House that there was no other choice because there was a possible investigation into the presidential inauguration committee."
I wholeheartedly agree with her, Melania threw her under the bus, she had no reason to play nice after that. The fact that some dumb fucks can't see that and are making a stink about her not being "her friend" shows just how shallow and ignorant they really are.
Who are you talking about?
Be specific
No one in particular, just in general, the defenders of Trump are making a stink about her recording Melania and not about the contents of the recordings which show the real Melania in her own words. I don't give a shit if people think they were obtained surreptitiously, she had every right to do it and did it to protect herself from the lies and deceit coming from the Trump organization. Hopefully more and more recordings of Trump and Melania will come out and expose them for the criminal slime they obviously are. Claiming this isn't something a friend would do is just a smokescreen trying to deflect and defend from the contents of the recordings.
Oh, I see
Hopefully more and more recordings of Trump and Melania will come out
Between now and the election? Doesn't that seem like an orchestrated scheme to bring down the President?
Claiming this isn't something a friend would do is just a smokescreen
No, I think it's a fairly valid argument.
Reminiscent of Linda Tripp..................cold, calculating, money grubbing bitches do this shit.
And yet none of the conservative Republicans back then seemed to have a problem with Linda's revelations. Funny how much they've changed since then that they can pretend such faux indignation over their favorite President getting similar treatment. Talk about hypocrisy.
Wrong, i considered her an angry, conniving bitch and that is exactly what she was.
She probably deserved to be fired. The fact that she had already made this tape is proof of her bad character, the type of person who secretly tapes a friend during a personal conversation is not a moral person. Since she has proven she betrayed her friend first why would we believe she wouldn't steal money, maybe that's why she made the tape so she'd have some leverage in case her thievery was uncovered.
She hadn't made any tapes at that time, which is why we don't have the tape of Melania telling her that they had to do it on their attorneys advice.
Again, she was accused BEFORE she made any tapes. Your deflection and defense is full of shit, but I'm not surprised to what lengths Trump fans will go to in order to protect their dear Leader.
Aside from what is obviously wrong with that statement let me turn it around - If Ms Wolkoff's book becomes a best seller shouldn't you and Anderson Cooper be entitled to some of the royalties?
Your sad attempt at deflection is like a broken pencil, pointless.
Frenemy.
Shitbird.
How in the hell is "secretly" recording not fucking illegal?
Anyone who secretly does something like this is already of questionable character by their actions alone.
If you worked for a friend and saw some expenditures which didn't seem right and you brought that information to your friend of apparent extreme overspending where donated non-profit funds were being funneled back into your friends pockets through their businesses and your friend told you not to worry and then later you were informed you were being fired and investigated for the overspending and your friend feigned any connection and told you their attorneys said this was how it had to be, would you still consider them a friend? Might you start taking steps to protect yourself, maybe even secretly recording all future contacts and conversations with the friend who threw you under the bus? I wouldn't think you were of "questionable character" if that was the case, would you?
Well certainly not after throwing her under the bus but I suppose one might think themselves protected after having forced their "friend"/employee to sign a non-disclosure agreement, which is what friends do, right?
Funny thing is that if it was Joe or his wife, the liberal left would be screaming bloody murder about the hypocrisy and injustice. It seems that since it is Melania, she is fair game. What a joke!
"Keep your friends close. Keep your enemies closer." Sun Tzu
...those on the right wouldn't give a crap about it being a "friend", they'd be overjoyed with the revelations the tape exposed and be repeating it every hour on the hour on Fox and other right wing media. Talk about hypocrisy.
"Talk about hypocrisy."
We were talking about it. We were talking about Biden.
Your charge of hypocrisy is mere speculation. When (and more importantly, if) Joe goes on such a rant and is resentful about people knowing what he really feels, let us know, and then you can decide whether the left is hypocritical about it.
Even if I were to do that, many of the liberal left here on NT would just deny, deflect, and insult either way. Happems quite frequently with certain members on both sides. To some people, the only truth they want or accept is that which mirrors their own.
I think Joe did a pretty good job of that during the debate and it was not very pretty. Time for me to go eat dinner You have a good evening.
Yes, telling Trump to shut up so that Biden could have the time allotted to him is totally the same as saying "Give me a fucking break" about children separated from their families and whining that the media aren't at Melania's beck and call.
And again, your speculation about the reactions of liberal in a situation that is unlikely to come to pass is just that - unfounded speculation.
You have your opinion that you are entitled to just as I have mine. Please take note that I never said Trump acted like a saint because he certainly did not and was a jerk most of the debate. But in many instances Biden went out of his way to egg Trump on. He called Trump a clown on more than one instance as well as making other comments and insinuations. To me there was no clear winner in this debate as both acted less than startlingly and it was clearly a draw.
It is!
You are absolutely correct.
it is shitty but conversations in the White House have been secretly taped for years.
The law in DC states "you may record a conversation or phone call if you are a party to the conversation or you get permission from one party to the conversation in advance".
You might be surprised at the answer to your question.
NC & TX are one party consent states.
CA is not.
In fact, generally, the redder the state, the more likely it is to be legal, where in deep blue states it is illegal.
I learned early in life to be wired for sound when dealing with conservatives. saved my ass more than once and cost a few their jobs. now it's as simple as apps on my smart phone. I record almost everything the ethically challenged say to me.
Don't be deplorable if you don't want people saying so!
Deplorable is in the eye of the beholder. Those who say it must be ready to be called the same.
Little did the radical Left know when they set that "deplorable" table in 2016 that they would end up eating crow.
Hillary couldn't help herself. She had to call half the country that for some reason. That kind of politics only worked for Obama - it's not transferable!
Melania Trump could have survived and even flourished if she had been seen as being a 'prisoner' in the Trump white house who didnt agree with what was going on but stayed for the sake of their teenage son or because she thought she could moderate her husband.
But that is not what we see here. We see Melania aligning herself with her husband, who as I said, is the biggest asshole in America. Of course its not going to come out well for her.
OMG what a terrible thing!
John, I'm afraid that Tammy Wynette and I respectfully disagree.
Who stands by the biggest asshole in America? I dont care if he is her man. Doesnt she know what is going on around her ?
John, I can't let you just call the President names all day.
I prefer you give us a specific issue or policy that you don't like.
I could name a lot of policies I dont like, but that is not really the issue with Donald Trump.
He's unfit for office, which means he should not be in office. He should resign, today.
The latest example is his behavior at the debate. Yes , it is proof he is unfit for office.
You think because you like his court nominees he should be given four more years even though he is the biggest asshole in the country. I dont know how you came to such a strange conclusion, but its not my problem either.
Yes John, that would be one reason, but for me, there are many more. I think of all those people living in what is called "the rust belt" who lost their way of life due to globalization. You know, I never used to think about them or all the manufacturing jobs lost by the US. It was Donald Trump that spoke for them. It was Trump that finally fixed the bad trade deals. So there are only two of the reasons I like this man. Yes John, he deserves another 4 years.
What makes you think anyone ate crow about that? If Trump didnt have deplorable supporters he would have been impeached and removed from office. He asked a foreign government to interfere in our election by investigating his opponent. He should have been thrown out on his ass for that and many other things. Of course he has deplorable supporters.
That's a joke, trump is all about globalization, golf clubs all around the world, ivanka with 18 trademarks in China, gimme a break.
He deserves four years in federal prison.
So, in your opinion, women should portray themselves as a victims and subservient to their husbands. How 19th century of you!
As did almost all First Ladies who preceded her. In very recent history - Hillary Clinton and Michelle Obama. Your point?
When? And please spare us the already debunked "Russia if you're listening" bullshit
Whatever that is supposed to mean, it hardly qualifies as allowing China and other countries to plunder thousands of US manufacturing jobs.
And now we know Hillary and the DNC paid a foreign spy to obtain information about Trump from a Russian who was investigated for spying on the United States.
Please specify exactly where in the US Constitution your statement is evidentiary grounds for impeachment. I'll wait for your answer!
you must have a short memory
Bring it John.
Maybe we can set up a Gulag for all the people the left doesn't like....Would the President be Inmate # 1?
And yet, not much has improved for the "rust belt", in fact since Covid all gains have been lost and many major deals announced by the POTUS have not materialized, like Foxconn. Carrier & Ford still sent even more jobs to Mexico.
They don't pay me to remind you of what happened last year.
I got news for you, Melania Trump ain't Jesus.
And when you are First Lady, and your husband the president is the biggest asshole in the country, yes, you probably should be suspicious that your friends may be secretly recording you.
Oh, that's right - Today is another day ending in - y.
Reality is going to come at you like a freight train one day.
For you, it's likely to be Nov 3rd!
Don't sell your side short John ... it's sanctimonious asshole central over there ....
Opposed to who? The self righteous pricks?
Do you believe that demeaning half of your fellow Americans wins you any argument? No wonder the vast majority of Americans are going to vote Democratic in November...
Perhaps your Ouija Board is in overdrive again. Please remember that the "popular vote" is irrelevant in presidential elections.
You'll have to ask Hillary Clinton to answer your question, because she did, and I don't.
What you have to understand Jasper is the "new math" used by liberals.
A "vast majority" to them means about 25% of voting aged Americans or about 48% of people who those who actually voted or about 2% more votes than the person they beat, etc, etc. It's that "feel good" liberal new math .......
I have friends. Most of them will vote for Trump. I will not. They have helped me when I was in need - I have helped them. That's pretty much the way friendships are.
The Trump's don't really seem to have "friends" - they have transactional relationships that they exploit to their advantage. When the relationship is no longer to their advantage then they "hardly knew" that person. They will probably also sue them.
So it's not really surprising that their "friends" view them the same way - expendable.
Friends don't force their "friends" to sign loyalty NDA's.
"For years, Winston Wolkoff couldn’t speak about allegations of wrongdoing by the inaugural committee — even as her name was dragged through the mud. She was “muzzled with an NDA”
Really - How many people has Obama sued over the years - I'm sure there must be a few - but compared to Trump.
I'm ready to go and I have to run for now, so as Gina Lollobrigida once said - I'll be available later!
Who's that ?
A B-movie star from the 1950s in Pleasantville black and white. The Jim Crow Era. Back when Vic was young and Trump was locked away in a military school for acting, um, deplorably. The Bad Old Days for everyone except white people!
How little you know, JBB. Here are her many awards and accomplishments:
Remember, JBB ... [ deleted ]
Yes, she was a B Grade foreign sex symbol of the 1950's. A bigger star than Melania ever was, for sure. She had more class and mostly kept her clothes on. Unlike the current First Lady... of the Night! I do not remember seeing any other First Ladys naked before. Well, paparazzi got that one pic of Jackie Kennedy Onassis. Butt, they had to climb a wall to get it. All they had to do with Melania was wave some Yankee $$$ and say, "Spread Em". Aren't you proud? /s
[deleted]
Yes, back when Democrats were the conservatives and Republicans were the liberals. Prior to 1964...
We've been over this before. Pay attention this time!
Plasticine friends and inaugural millions go missing!
Oh My!
"I’m working my ass off- on Christmas stuff that you know, who give a f*** about Christmas stuff and the decoration? But I need to do it, right?" - Melania Trump
Does anyone think the right wing media would have cared who taped that if it were Michelle Obama on the tape while she was First Lady? Do you really believe they would be defending her by saying the tape was secretly made by a supposed "friend" of Michelle so no one should listen to it or take it into account? I don't think there's anyone here who would disagree that this clip would have been run on Fox News daily and then brought back out each Christmas to claim how the first lady and her husband must really be Muslims who hate Christians and Christmas. In fact they'd likely just be repeating over and over the out of context clip saying "who gives a fuck about Christmas" and of course their viewers would buy right into the narrative. But when it's Melania and their dear Leader being exposed they circle their sad little white nationalist wagons and puff out their chests in faux indignation blaming the messenger.
From what i read i didn’t see anything wrong with what melania said.
