Nearly two months ago, CNN reached out to Melania Trump’s book publisher to request an interview with the former first lady ahead of her upcoming memoir. After several exchanges about a possible interview, the publisher sent an unusual demand last week: an interview would cost $250,000.

          From memes cant, this translates to “always has been,” though case and tense may vary.

      While that is probably true, I also suspect she is building up a bug out fund for when Trump either loses or croaks. She seems smart enough to realize that either one of those situations are going to be a grand old fuckfest.

    Gee whiz - who’d’ve thought that the woman who married a rich guy who looks (and notoriously smells) like a gigantic ambulatory drain clog would be so mercenary.

      I’d just like to express my appreciation for allowing me to add “gigantic ambulatory drain clog” to my vocabulary.

    Remember that she promised a press conference to explain how a soft core porn model got a ‘genius’ visa.

      I know the answer, I don’t mind it, and, in fact, encourage the immigration of hot milfs who are willing to pose nude.

      Further, in the interest of equality, I demand two genius slots immediately be created and granted to a hot DILF and a XILF.

        I think that MILFs already have a slot.

        You think you’re the only one who can be juvenile on the interwebs?

        DID YOU REALLY BELIEVE THAT??

      I’m kind of surprised we haven’t seen more from Ms. Daniels.

      edit = I meant a movie bio or another book.

    CNN: We’re in the business of selling advertisements, I think we should understand better than most that we are providing you a service.

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.

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.
