    MAGAs don’t do martyrs well because they’re all psychopaths, and can’t maintain the pretense of caring enough to keep someone’s legacy alive.

    Wait till you see how fast Melania moves on and profits from Donny’s death. She might set a land speed record.

    My husband’s dead. Like, I’m not trying to be morbid, but he’s dead.

    She should put that on a t-shirt.

        This seemed a little sus to me so I checked the dictionary. Merriam-Webster says wet can mean consisting of liquid such as water. (See 1a of screen capture).

    As much as they are both (all 3 actually) are horrible people, there’s nothing nefarious in her not grieving how people want her to.

    Perhaps she doesn’t care. Perhaps she does, but sees an opportunity and can suck it up. Perhaps she does and she is using work to distract herself. Perhaps she does and it comes out differently. Perhaps she does and shes good at acting like nothing is wrong.

    It’s all just a distraction story.

      In some ways I completely agree.

      Its absolutely possible for someone who loves their husband to appear happy after they suddenly pass away.

      However, the pivot to capture the TP USA business is a conscious one, and it definitely feels pretty gross to anyone who understands that it is indeed a business.

      The thing is, to people receptive to their message, its not a “business”, its a cause or a movement. They can just say “Charlie would have wanted her to continue his work!”

      I genuinely think she was. To psychopaths, everyone is transactionally of limited use. I think in him she genuinely saw and identified someone like herself. And if something had happened to her. Charlie would have 100% done the same as her. They aren’t well.

    This is a worthless story consisting entirely of peoples reactions in social media. What a waste of internet.
