Where's Melania?

1  2018-05-30 by hurtsdonut_

She hasn't been seen in twenty days and earlier today "she" tweeted this

I see the media is working overtime speculating where I am & what I'm doing. Rest assured, I'm here at the @WhiteHouse w my family, feeling great, & working hard on behalf of children & the American people! https://mobile.twitter.com/FLOTUS/status/1001912411933364224

That reads a lot more like a Donald tweet than Melania.

54 comments

He killed her and disappeared her along with the 1500 infants that ICE is sex trafficking.

That's what I figured.

Can a basement pizza place really hold 1500 kids?

They got a special on chorizo this week?

You seem salty, it’s a decent question posed by OP

It reads nothing like her normal tweets. Weird.

I went back a while, I don't think she personally uses that account. It's all official communications, most likely put out by her office in her name. Promoting events/appearances/trips, commemorating holidays, condolences on deaths and tragedies, etc. I can't find a single tweet that doesn't look like it went through a committee.

What's interesting, as I read on another post, is that this tweet uses a comma, space, followed by & character: ", &" - something common in Trump's tweets, but as far as I can tell never used before on @FLOTUS.

Here's a couple that omit the comma.

The comma thing you're referring to is the serial/Oxford comma, something which is a lot more common in American English. It's a nice observation, as Melania (with a Central European upbringing) would most likely not be in the habit of using the serial comma (as demonstrated in your tweets).

which one is Melania?

Malaria is the one with perpetually icy glare.

is she the daughter?

That's Ivanka.

And Malaria is the one spread by mosquitos that kills people.

So Melania is the wife and Ivanka is the daughter? I feel like I should know this, but god damn if I just dont give a shit.

Yep.

It’s easy to get them confused

Trumps attracted to both as well

She probably sleeps with the same man as the daughter

I thought that was melatonin.

Hiding from Trump and the spotlight because she seems to despise both those things.

Most likely cut a deal with mueller and co while orgnaizing her divorce

God, that would be amazing.

Far more likely she's dead.

I doubt she is dead, but my goodness, in any other world the First Lady missing would be huge news. Here? Barely a blip.

This would be an amazing plot of they wanted to reboot Weekend at Bernie's.

can we add this to the sidebar as a confirmed conspiracy?

She just had surgery didn’t she?

She did. She had kidney surgery on May 14th and spent five nights at Walter Reed. There's just been talk that she hasn't been seen publicly for twenty days and that tweet doesn't look like something she'd write.

Yeah I’m just assuming she may be resting up and taking things easy.. I definitely think that’s a PR tweet yeah

Yeah, she's resting up after she downed a bottle of sleeping pills.

she died in surgery and the trumps are covering it up until the clone is fully programmed.

I mean, I'm not saying it, but a lot of people are. The best people are saying it. Who knows? I'm just saying a lot of people, the best people, are saying she died in surgery...

It's telling that this Sub is so quiet about a story like this. This is Bread and Butter for the typical wild speculation I see here. I have seen this on other subs for a few days now and was expecting to see more here.

/r/politics has taken the reigns on full-blown conspiracy mode on this one.

I agree though, the lack of interest from this sub on this one is, well, interesting.

Right that post is full of the wandering ideas, this place use to have about all political stories.

Personally, I think Melania's disappearance is due to her being more popular than Trump. Taken from this CNN article today:

She also put on the Trump administration's first State Dinner, for France, overseeing all of the decisions for the evening, from the White House Kitchen Garden herbs served as part of the meal to the silver, china, tablecloths and seat cushions. Wearing a sparkling Chanel Haute Couture gown, Trump was every inch appearing as a comfortable and capable first lady, almost 16 months into her tenure.

Results of a CNN poll conducted the following week confirmed just that -- the first lady was up 10 points to 57% in her favorability rating, making her again the most liked member of the Trump administration. She followed up her State Dinner appearance with the unveiling of "Be Best," her official platform. During her 11-minute speech, she underlined her commitment to spreading a message of social media kindness, as the President sat feet from his wife in the front row.

Trump administration officials have a tendency to get fired, but especially if they garner more or better attention from the median than Trump (thinking especially of Bannon).

If Melania had a surgery and she got more attention from Macron's visit and is private to be begin with, seems like Trump would tell her to step out for a bit for taking too much of the limelight.

The other semi-plausible theory I can think of is that she got an abortion. She's 48, so still not "out of the woods" when it comes to getting pregnant, although unlikely. But goddamn if anyone seems like they'd get an abortion, it's her. She got her kid and obviously despises Trump.

There’s no way it was an abortion. You can go straight back to work after one, maybe take the day off. You’re just not supposed to lift anything heavy for a few days.

Definitely, from a physical capability standpoint.

But if she got an abortion, and either told Trump or he found out about it afterwards, he is definitely the kind of person who would put her in a media black hole as a "punishment", imho.

For that matter, given how he assaulted and raped Ivana, he's also the sort of person who would beat the shit out of a spouse for something like that.

It's telling that this Sub is so quiet about a story like this.

Is that a bullet point in the script?

Feel free to be the one speculating in this case. What's the REAL reason she's been off the radar for a bit?

Didn't she just have Surgery? I'd be taking it easy too, If I could.

Maybe if it was a kidney transplant. Why all the lies about her though? If she was recovering trump would be using it for sympathy from the press.

It's telling that this Sub is so quiet about a story like this.

In which way is in telling?

If Michelle Obama was missing for three weeks, We would be seeing things like Michelle and Hilliary starting secret underground shadow group lot let all Muslims take your guns.

Yup endless speculation about Clinton's weird back brace thing, but the current first lady is missing and the only post about it is heavily downvoted.

Sounds a lot like POTUS

Sleeper mode.

melania is a sleeper agent and she is reporting back to her home country

trump is unaware because their marriage is loveless at this point and they prefer to live apart anyways

This is r/conspiracy, not r/trashytabloid

With Ivanka around, he doesn't need Melania. Maybe she killed herself or he returned her for a full refund.

Is this the narrative happening right now by journalists to pass off. Then in 2 days we see her again happy and healthy. It's all part of the show. This is a way news sites and tv makes $$$$.

They're completing the replicant. Be patient.
