Melania Trump, the warrior's rest
There are women for whom their only goal is to marry a rich man. Some get it, most don't. In the case of Melania that Donald Trump crossed her path, it was a blessing from God for the then aspiring model, considering that no one knew her and that her only capital to obtain a residence permit in the United States was to have a sculptural body, and a certain air of mystery, which, according to what they say, was what most attracted the American magnate who would soon make her his wife, provided that he turned a blind eye on such sensitive issues as infidelity, harassment, disrespect for everything wearing skirts.
Melania complied with what was agreed to the letter, as has been demonstrated after her arrival at the White House. Extramarital affairs that apparently do not affect the future of her wife in the least. It is surprising that having the upper hand, she does not claim her role as first lady, which means something more than showing off haute couture models, or visiting those who have suffered some tragedy, dressed as if she were going to a polo match. . Always from the hand of a man who has given more than enough evidence that she despises them.
Not only that, it was expected that Melania would soften Trump's rough ways, that she would intercede for the most blacks, but also for immigrants, that she would be in favor of those families who arrived from Mexico, Honduras or Guatemala, who they are taken away from their children as soon as they cross the border. A revenge of the most powerful president on earth for not having been able to comply with one of his star electoral proposals: the construction of a wall that prevents those who come to their country by land and not by air as Melania arrived, risking even her life, They can start a new one in the land of opportunities.
Melania's silence is thunderous on this and on many other sensitive issues such as the fact that Trump has taken away the aid to Palestinian refugees, which had been given to them for 70 years, since they were forced to leave Palestine, converting them in pariahs of the earth, since they had to leave behind their lands, their houses, their families, their future to condemn them to begging, uprooting, to survive in inhospitable camps in Lebanon, Jordan, and the countries bordering with Israel.
A country, Israel, which has shown no sensitivity to its neighbors, to whom day in and day out, snatches the few lands they have left, the little hope of surviving Netanyaju's scorched earth policy, which unreservedly supports the President of the United States, preventing these people from having access to education or healthcare.
You can come to understand that some people are captivated by the elegance of the American first lady, her way of moving, even her secrecy, but taking into account that all her predecessors have meant themselves for some reason, their lack of interest, their apathy, for the problems of the people, they cry out to heaven. Which makes her a vase woman, an award that was awarded to her by the lord with the red hair.
Women of very different personalities have passed through the White House. From Laura Buch, who was involved in the literacy of the little ones, as well as in the innovation of the classrooms with programs such as "Ready to read, ready to learn", to Michell Obama, who chose to instill healthy diets in children , in a country where obesity reaches alarming numbers.
Well, all in some way have stood out for something, even those who decided to act as loving wives at a certain point in their lives, such as Hillary Clinton, who once her husband left the presidency, decided to fight to reach the top , where no other woman had gone before, forcing her to confront a character as sinister as Donald Trump who did not hesitate to use the unprecedented dirty war to undermine her personal and political prestige. A style of doing politics that is embittering her the present and that threatens to embitter every minute of his mandate, if he ever ends it.
Hence, it comes to my attention that two years after Melania's arrival at the White House little or nothing has transpired about her way of thinking, about what issues affect her as a woman, as a citizen, as a mother and wife. This being serious, what shocks me the most is that she has not spoken out on an issue that affects all women of any age or condition, such as the MeToo movement. A bad example for all of us who fight to dignify the role of women in modern society.
Of course, all things considered, no woman who asserts herself both personally and socially, she would marry a character like Donald Trump. Which leads me to think of that Spanish saying that says: two who sleep on the same mattress end up being the same.
