Instead of writing to Putin, Madam Melania might want to write to her Daddy Big Bucks to release a high school senior kidnapped off the street in LA while the kid is walking his dog — and the masked ISS (ICE spelled the fascist way) let the dog to run off by itself.

You are complicit in this, Melania.

Yes it was worth it - if you didn't read it we would have thought it was a well-crafted letter speaking directly about the Ukrainian children, when it was not...thankfully Zelenskyy was shrewd enough to take it up and use to remind people of the abducted Ukrainian children for which Putin has been named a war criminal. Zelenskyy's wife writing a letter was a stroke of genius...despite the stupid Melania letter, the abducted children was raised to the forefront and helps paint Putin in a bad light - the rest of the world sees it - but US citizens are far behind, so this helps....imagine letting this war criminal into US soil...boggles the mind...he can't go anywhere in Europe, Canada etc because he will be arrested as a war criminal...but Trump puts out the red carpet - the US public is I hope ashamed of that spectacle....

Your dramatization of this silly letter broadens our awareness of Melania’s shallowness, cluelessness, and simple-mindedness. She really is a blank. Even though she didn’t write it, she probably wishes she could.

Same FLOTUS on her way to visit immigrant kids separated by her husband from their families.

Tim, you've outdone yourself. Sorry/not sorry, but she really really really deserves it.

Agree that it was totally worth 15 minutes. I felt a little bit different about the letter—Melania seems to have some sympathy for Ukraine and I appreciate every factor that pushes in that direction, even if the letter didn’t mention Ukraine and seemed naive and silly.

At the 2:39 mark, she writes…”Her Gilded Country Club”… REALLY, is it HERS.

I had difficulty believing Melania expressed concern for bombing hospitals and the children of Ukraine in the first place. She is so completely absent from her role as First Lady. Those "comments" were likely fabricated to "fill the void." I much prefer her absence. The Trump-like signature on the letter was yet another sloppy error in judgment and very revealing that she had nothing to do with the letter. The "AI slop," as Tim rightly called it, makes that apparent, too.

Yah it was stupid but still allowed the issue to come to the forefront again....Zelenskyy masterfully seized on it by elevating the intention to show the atrocities Putin has inflicted....( even though the actual letter was just gobbly goop as Tim demonstrated) It fulfilled a purpose...

If it was written by Melania do you think it's her attempt at righting wrongs in her own life as she may have been trafficked?

Tim you know that letter wasn’t authored by Melania. She can’t write in English nor is her vocabulary that large! 😂
