Melania Trump, Grifter

Click here for an article by Julia Marsh in The New York Post, entitled "Melania sues Mail Online a third time for claiming she was an escort."

I don't care about the "escort" claim; it's in the courts, and we may find out one way or the other. Until we do, it's just an unsubstantiated allegation. What I do care about is part of the defense Melania has filed, complaining that she is being harmed by bad publicity ruining her opportunity to cash in on her husband's presidency* -- is that not the definition of corruption? The idea that Trump and his family will not use the presidency* to cash in is frankly ludicrous: Of course they will.
”Mail Online’s conduct was extreme and outrageous in falsely making the scurrilous charge that the future First Lady of the United States worked as a prostitute,” reads the Manhattan Supreme Court suit, filed Monday ...

”Plaintiff had the unique, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, as an extremely famous and well-known person…to launch a broad-based commercial brand in multiple product categories, each of which could have garnered multi-million dollar business relationships for a multi-year term during which plaintiff is one of the most photographed women in the world,” the Manhattan suit says.

“As a result of defendant’s publication of defamatory statements about plaintiff, plaintiff’s brand has lost significant value, and major business opportunities that were otherwise available to her have been lost and/or significantly impacted,” the suit says.
