Melania Trump and American Political Hypocrisy, Bamidele Ademola-Olateju

My daughter and I listened and laughed through Melania Trump’s speech. Every few seconds, she bungled her tenses and everyone of those rosy republicans cheered on as if they were in Sacrament. American political right is the province of self righteous uneducable Pharisees. If Melania were the wife of a democrat, hell would have been let loose. Like her husband, she tried making the American Presidency look like a small deal. A few minutes later, the press revealed her wholesale lift of Michelle Obama’s 2008 speech and the prevaricators swooped in. What a mess! They can blame it on handlers or anyone but it is clear that anything Trump is a cheap imitation, a con and a bad product wrapped in a gossamer of false modesty. This man is an assault on conservatism. The first day is already a disaster. Like my daughter said; “The only thing noteworthy about tonight is her beauty”. True that!
