Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!

She still can barely speak english - who on earth would doubt the fact that she's just a dumb hoe sold to trump?

[–] whatfuvk@lemmy.ml 33 points 16 hours ago (5 children)

not that I doubt that she is dumb, but using her foreign language ability as a measure of intelligence is definitely racist

US immigration and eugenicists concluded Italian immigrants were stupid in the 1920s because of English IQ tests.

To be fair, she did get a genius visa so maybe we should expect her to be a little brighter

Absolutely not, Melania came to New York in 1996, Meaning she has been living in USA for 30 years, and since she was 26.
She has also had access to teachers if she wanted them. Also I bet as a model going to USA, she worked in an international environment, where English is frequently spoken.

It's a disgrace she doesn't speak better English. It's not just because she has bad linguistic skills, it's also because she hasn't cared much to improve her English for 30 years.

[–] Smeagol666@crazypeople.online 5 points 10 hours ago

She wasn't chosen by Trump or Epstein for her cunning linguistic skills.

[–] drmoose@lemmy.world 12 points 15 hours ago

It has nothing to do with language. She's just dumb like that and I wouldn't be surprised she can't speak decent Slovenian either. You can just feel the vapidness radiate from her.

[–] 87Six@lemmy.zip 7 points 15 hours ago

It's not racist. She's not just your average immigrant working daily to feed her family after fleeing their country so they don't get killed.

The first lady of America should be able to speak English.

Just dont say she's a prostitute, you will get sued. Or whore, cant say that.

[–] wpb@lemmy.world 9 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Melania Trump is a prositute. She has sex for money.

[–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 2 points 9 hours ago

It's in her biography" "Make Fuck...Get Green Card"

[–] phutatorius@lemmy.zip 8 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

Based on Ungaro's allegations, it looks like Melanoma might initially have been trafficked as a minor.

Regardless, it looks like she got into the US on an Epstein visa.

[–] Doomsider@lemmy.world 1 points 6 hours ago

The government should have went back to look at how Epstein was able to secure these specialized visas. It is past time for heads to roll for supporting this human trafficking operation.

[–] drmoose@lemmy.world 7 points 19 hours ago

I'd like to see discovery on that lawsuit so yeah let's go: Melania Trump is a prostitute and a whore.

[–] Etterra@discuss.online 5 points 20 hours ago

Clearly she can't from the same western bloc clearinghouse that used to sell mail order brides back in the 80s and 90s.
