I listened to part of a segment on my local NPR station last night about melania’s new movie. The reporter was gushing about how great and strong melania is; how she loves fashion and children and supports her husband.
I was revolted and thought to myself about how far NPR had fallen.
Those traits are admirable* but not noteworthy. Millions of devoted parents and spouses exist, but my mother and my wife don’t have access to a film crew to document them and pick highlights.
*unless your spouse is a known domestic abuser, pedophile, rapist, fraudster (…) and actively dismantling democracy in America, in which case… maybe don’t support him unless you are also a monster.
