9. Well, Barron was the smokescreen, the "beard."

"Oh, precious little Barron is still in school. I, as his mommy, must never leave his side."

That was the version of the story fed to the public.

I see Melania as every bit as much of a viper as Trump. Maybe worse. She is certainly as devious and conniving and completely lacking in any kind of self-awareness.

She's notoriously litigious, suing a British tabloid (and winning) over stories about how she actually earned a living, other than dropping her panties for photographers.

Seeing how angry and moody and bipolar she is on a regular basis, I'll assume that any sexual encounters with Trump ended when the Daniels and McDougal stories were front-page news.

And, she has always been the "bird in the gilded cage"...that gold monstrosity in Trump Tower...and I believe flattery and constant reinforcement about how beautiful and special and precious she is ends up being as important to her as the air she breathes.

That makes her an easy "mark" for men who know some women need that, so they have a well-rehearsed script to read from when they want something from those women.

I don't think she's a "good person," I don't see her as particularly intelligent or gifted, just an opportunistic Slovenian sex industry worker who hitched her wagon to Trump's star and has ridden it, willingly or reluctantly, ever since.

I don't know how often she "wants" or "needs" sex (and don't want to), but I will assume any time she wanted it, she went after it, and not with Trump.
