A porn star, teasing?
I donāt believe it.
Wouldnāt it be a crime to submit this affidavit with a forged signature?
Pfft. They didnāt pay her $130,000 to not talk about an affair that never happened. That would be extortion. Of course it happened. I read yesterday he has this cockamamie theory that the greater the age difference between a husband and wife, the less she cares if he cheats on her. Heās just a damn cheating-on-every-agreement-ever slob. Honestly the only interesting thing about the whole situation is if weāre going to see the first Presidential separation in history. That would be kind of cool. From what Iāve read sheās pretty steamed.
Pretty sad that Kimmel does better investigative reporting than many of the stenographers at various newspapers.
So thatās why they arrived (and left) the STFU, er, SOTU in separate cars last night.
ETA Then again, sheās reportedly been staying at a DC hotel lately.
@clunkertruck posted this photo earlier. He said it should be shared so ā¦
The expressions on the blonde womanās face is pretty interesting too.
@mattinpa 'ā¦the only interesting thing about the whole situation is if weāre going to see the first Presidential separation in history.ā
Strikes me that we already areā¦in slow motion and with a fair amount of ham-handed artifice. Even Melania knows that she canāt throw his clothes out into the Rose Garden - but that would be ā¦another distraction.
Should have asked her if sheād be willing to release her tax return for the year sheād have received the money. That 130k is probably going to stand out.
Well huhāshe really did send a message last night. Remaining seated is clearly the FLOTUS equivalent of taking a knee. And just look at the pride shining in her eyes! Sheās clapping like a colleague at the office she doesnāt much like just blew out the candles on a birthday sheet cake in the break room.
can a signature with her āscreen nameā ever be real ?
Iāve asked the question before on TPM in this connection, but donāt remember getting a reply.
You may be right. But personally, I donāt detect that much enthusiasm.
Iām pretty sure thatās a given. In fact, the good money is her staying at whatever hotel Cockholster hates the most.
If she had any class sheād start appearing in said hotelās ads.
āWhenever I separate from the President of the United States, youāll find me at Marriot!ā
ā Melania Trump
Thereās real and then thereās legal.
Kimmelās point is that the signature in question isnāt even real, never mind the legality of it.
@mattinpa Oooh, yeah. She looks positively thrilled to be there. And remaining seated? Ooof!
but it can be legal ?
Don Jr. says he āgot a leg workoutā but obviously that wasnāt true of everyone. Heh.
OK, so she could have signed it āMinnie Mouseā and the only problem would be a copyright problem, but it would count as a legally binding signature ? I guess it makes some weird sense. Thanks !
I never wanted to get on the āshit on Melania trainā though I may have said some unsavory things way back in the beginning of this mess. I really donāt care if she worked modeling while on visa or posed nude or married a (fake) rich guy. Small potatoes in the grand scheme of things. So, I just think if she is going to make trumpās life uneasy we should consider if not supporting her on this at least back off a bit and give her some room. I know comments here or anywhere on the web donāt amount to a hill of beans but itās quite obvious she hates him as much if not more than we do, and not just because of the Stormy deal. So at least we have that in common. And if she tries to do anything like separation or divorce (I doubt divorce) you know the right wingers are going to threaten herā¦bigly. I would not want to be in her position, then again, I would have found a better rich guy to marry than this dip shit, NYC is full of them.
Just thoughts. No one has to agree.
Also too, Ha, I bet sheās NOT staying at the trump hotel in DC.
Iām with you; Melania isnāt the problem here. And she seems miserable. If we were friends Iād tell her sheās young and could make a new life for herself and be happier.
Absolutely. And if anyone is a #metoo, she is.
Yes, in many circumstances.
In the US we have whatās called the āUniform Commercial Codeā (UCC) a long-standing attempt to standardize certain legal requirements across the country. Section 3-401(b) of the Code says that a signature may be made āby the use of any name, including a trade or assumed name, or by a word, mark, or symbol executed or adopted by a person with present intention to authenticate a writing.ā
Bear in mind that the UCC is not law per se. It is merely a recommendation as to what laws each state or territory should put in place. While much of the UCC has been adopted widely, there are still local variations.
