Melania Trump and 'The Art of Her Deal'

In her new book, "The Art of Her Deal," Pulitzer Prize-winning Washington Post correspondent Mary Jordan explores the life of first lady Melania Trump, and her surprising role as one of the most influential voices in the campaign and administration of President Donald Trump. Correspondent Tracy Smith talks with Jordan about the "real" Melania, a woman who grew up dreaming of a life far away from her native Slovenia, and wound up in the White House.

I don’t hear anyone talking about Melania’s sleeveless dresses/tops like they did Michelle Obama. Hypocrisy much?

[desireepetitdemurat]

This interview only shows how guarded the information about this woman is. The writer basically speculates about her, that’s it.

[JoinTheJourneyToday]

Chain migration… Exactly what Trump did with Melania and then her parents. Hypocrisy ... Republican style.

[Sprinbrooks]

Malania married someone who is as old as her parent. She knew what she was doing.

[lavenderbloom]

Who moves to a country and becomes a citizen the following year? And they say that there is equality in the United States? I call BS.

[mariamtabatadze]

What was that weird part about him speaking the language??? The boy is half Slovenian, it’s great he speaks the language and honors where his mother’s side of the family comes from.

[redwoods]

Their marriage is a negotiated business deal.

[ilonaandlivia]

The story is meaningless. Nothing deep.

[edyann]

They're made for each other. She can leave if she wants but loves the attention and fame. And obviously the money.

[JoinTheJourneyToday]

I’m sure the “family values” evangelicals will excuse even this love-less marriage arrangement.

[stylecollective-qtum]

Of course she's not helpless. She very well knows which side of her bread is buttered and how.

[elishevajones]

This is stupid. Why don't you just interview The First Lady to get the real answers?

[Stellaluna]

She is complicit and comfortable with her lifestyle.

[madult]

Wtf did I just waste my time watching?

[mmaco]

She will divorce him once they leave the White House, no doubt about that.

[seek]

"I don't have the exact details"- that says much.

[mimisure]

This report told us nothing we don’t already know. Why write a book and never talked to the First Lady? This was a googled report 🙄

[normbatchelor]

This birther received a genius green card? For her ability to do what exactly?

[annelynk]

Slovenian discussion “and the secret service has no idea what they’re saying”. Don’t kid yourself.

[radhasen]

She's a perfect example of thoughts create manifestation!!
