Book Review: "Melania and Michelle" By Tammy R. Vigil

These are two very different women leading highly influential lives in the constant spotlight of the American people.

What we have here is like comparing apples to oranges and while I'd love to entertain the thought of the dislike for the Trumps getting a fair shake on the publicity stage is there any wonder why?


I often say that narcissists do a fine job of self destruction all on their own and they need no help in this regard.


DT is one such subject that I cannot diagnose from afar do to the Goldwater Rule but suffice to say it's clearly evident at this point what he's all about and the personality trait disorder that seems to be brought up in conversation in this regard.


However, I will note that Michelle is a classy, intelligent, and adored woman who didn't have to subject herself to the naysayers because she knew who she was and what she stood for. There was no need to 'sell herself' to the public.


Whereas with the latter the agenda is a constant game of trying to portray oneself in the most favorable light.


Look I happily divorced a malignant narcissist and the warning signs are plentiful here. The lack of family involvement and upbringing. The lack of love and affection. The loss of empathy and moral values.


I don't think anyone can argue that while the author did a good job in trying to highlight the various degrees of indifference you simply can't place these two women in the same container and label them as First Ladies.


They are both so much more than mere 'First Ladies' as each one brings her own sense of style, judgement, and character.


While I agree it's not a win-win situation in terms of public scrutiny it's always something that must be endured because your spouse holds the highest office of the land.
With that in mind I feel this was a solid read and enjoyable even if the political differences were overwhelmingly tilted to one side for this Democrat.


Thank you and remember DT was once a Democrat before he switched over.


God bless our Country.
