Melania is with Trump for the 'privilege and prestige', not affection, claims new book
Weeks after Melania Trump sparked marital feud rumors after her smile turned into a grimace when her husband reached out to grab her hand at the NCAA College Football Championship, a review of two highly controversial political books revealed an insight into the relationship between the first couple.
The Guardian's Peter Conrad wrote a review on 'Free, Melania' by CNN reporter Kate Bennett and 'A Very Stable Genius' by Pulitzer prize-winning journalists Carol D. Leonnig and Philip Rucker, shedding light on President Donald Trump's "lax, dribbling sphincter"persona, which was complemented by his wife's "stony-visaged" aura who was like a "sphinx, silently guarding her secrets behind outsize dark glasses."
Conrad said that the first book - as one could tell from the title - focused more on Melania than the second, but even so, failed to demystify her. Instead, it resorted to speculate on the political statements that the mother-of-one often made with her sense of style. "Melania relies on her spiked heels to belittle Karen Pence, the squat, sanctimonious wife of the vice-president, and she occasionally wears trousers to antagonize her husband, who thinks that female legs should be permanently bare," the review read.
He further added saying, "Melania, Bennett reports, values the 'privilege and prestige' offered by Trump, and can do without affection. The hollowness of the arrangement was advertised by their wedding cake, which stood seven tiers tall, with internal wiring as intricate as a Trump skyscraper, but turned out to be inedible because to ensure that the facade stayed upright the confectioners had to leave the gooey filling out."
So glaringly obvious was, in fact, the pretentious exterior put up by the POTUS that 'A Very Stable Genius' quoted him telling former White House Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci, "I’m a total act and I don’t understand why people don’t get it.”
Conrad concluded his remarks by saying that the book, 'A Very Stable Genius' needed to be named something different and suggested the title 'An Evil Genius' as a better alternative.
