Melania Trump turned the big 5-0 on Sunday. Unfortunately, because of this whole coronavirus thing, she was unable to celebrate the way she would have liked… with a giant taxpayer-funded weekend-long bash at Mar-a-Lago. Instead, she had to suffer through a low key celebration at the boring old White House.
But there’s always a silver lining. Because not being able to throw an epic 50th birthday extravaganza actually helped Melania empathize even more with everyday Americans who haven’t been able to throw their own birthday parties because her husband completely botched the country’s response to coronavirus.
In a tweet, the First Lady wrote: “Thank you to everyone for the wonderful birthday wishes. This year, my heart is with those who have missed their own celebrations of birthdays, holidays, & special occasions with their families, friends, & colleagues. I look forward to the day when we can all be together again!”
Thank you to everyone for the wonderful birthday wishes.
This year, my heart is with those who have missed their own celebrations of birthdays, holidays, & special occasions with their families, friends, & colleagues. I look forward to the day when we can all be together again!— Melania Trump (@FLOTUS) April 26, 2020
No mention of the 55,000 Americans who will never celebrate another birthday again because they died from COVID-19, or the thousands of others who are currently hooked up to ventilators fighting for their lives.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
No mention of the families who have lost loved ones either. Or of the people, particularly healthcare professionals and essential workers, who live every day in fear of contracting this deadly virus.
Instead, the only thing Melania is thinking about as she embarks on yet another year of exceptionally good fortune is how terribly disappointing it is that she can’t have a party.
And now, the responses…
Do you REALLY, though?

My heart is with the families of the 55,000 who died of COVID-19 and will never celebrate another birthday because of the ineptitude of your incompetent, unhinged, racist, degenerate, son of a Klansman, husband. https://t.co/uieO2MebaJ

Happy birthday ma’am. I hope you get the divorce you were looking for next year.

The world has had enough of you and your husband. PLEASE DISAPPEAR both of you. Your false sincerity is very disturbing.

Over 55,000 will never have another birthday. If your husband keeps pushing to reopen early, there will be thousands more. pic.twitter.com/YaGI3B1F88

At least she has her compassionate and empathetic husband to comfort her.

Yeah, a lot of people are bummed about not getting a birthday party this year. Little kids don’t even understand it. If I ever cared about parties I would be bummed, too.
I still don’t get why we’re supposed to be in a perpetual state of sadness. It sucks but if I dwell solely on what’s happening I’ll end up committing suicide. Because some people will never celebrate birthdays again, no one should want to? My mom died a couple of years ago. She’ll never celebrate a birthday again. People in some countries have *never* celebrated birthdays because that’s a luxury. Get over it, people. This isn’t that big a deal.

@djmcgamester…………confusing from confused. Just go ahead and commit suicide then….

@ShiningSex, omg NO CAPS!!!!!! Makes a refreshing change dearie. As for YOUR “handle”…….

I hope she never has another birthday. Rotten whore tramp.

Imagine if Michelle Obama or Laura Bush were still first lady. They would be out there in Hospitals, giving their time.
But gee, it’s ok, Melania made it all about her. I don’t really care…do you?

Poor Melania. She suffers greatly.

Even smiling makes her face ache.

It occurs to me that Melania is in a precarious position. No other wife of Dotard Trump has made it to age 50 and stayed married to him.
(quick look at Wikipedia): He traded in Ivana at around age 43 and traded in Marla at about age 36.
The clock is ticking on this game show!

Ain’t thot a shame. The poor girl ..

If only that were a possibility. I called Trump winning a year before the election and people called me crazy for thinking he could ever even get the nomination. Sadly I am getting the same feeling this time around too. I hope the electoral college proves me wrong.

I’M SURE SHE GOT PLOWED BY DON JR.

@ShiningSex, AND THERE I SPOKE TOO SOON…….
What a sad life dearie……
Cam
You don’t notice it because her husband’s makeup is so ridiculous, but can we talk about that bizzare dark spray on and base makeup she’s wearing? She is pale and yet wears makeup looking like she’s trying to do blackface.
The whole family is like a bizarre media failed experiment.
white-queer-african
@Cam, agreed as he takes the focus of her. A robotic, soulless blowup doll posing as the wife of Don the Con?
SarcasaticMisanthrope
She just turned 50? She doesn’t look a day over 75.
