"Melania is there and I don't want to cause any kind of jealousy or anything like that because I'm the first Trump wife. I'm the first lady, ok?"

Ivana Trump said.

Funniest thing I've read since they've found "Santa Claus's tomb."

In a a part where she talks about DACA: 'I would not send [away] probably thousands and thousands of the kids that were born here,' she said. 'But it is very political and confusing so I really don't have an answer on that.'

DACA isn't about children who were born here, it's about "childhood arrivals". At least she admits she finds it confusing.

She is Donald's equal in intelligence and she raised the three to a very high standard.
But when he needed more earthyness and less competition from HIS woman, she was fired.

Now the Donald has both.

I like Maples - seems like a class act.

Trump acts like a lot of successful men, always willing trade in the current wife for a newer model.

Calling Marla the showgirl, that must be how the word translates from Czech into English.

I don't watch morning tv, I won't read about it either

His Show Girl was big on earthiness in a Scots Irish way, but she never had half of Ivana's and later Mellania's intelligence. The interesting part of this marriage odyssey is that DJT kept trying until he got it right.

I need t look into Botox-lip stocks for my portfolio...

I've never been clear on which one is the current wife. The names go in the same mental space. East European names, perhaps.

Trump's wife Moldova

That sounds fine to me.

The capitalization is important there, and the transcriber's choice -- "First Lady" or "first lady" -- nearly outcome dispositive on the appropriateness of the remark.

It appears you need to expand your circle of successful men.

I thought it was a great joke, myself.

I agree. Great joke.
