Everyone keeps acting like a mystry why she did this today, but I think it's very simple.
She's been mad and has wanted to do this for months. And she keeps asking Donald "now can I push back? NOW?" and he said "fine fine do it" since so much else is going on and he wants her to shut up about it.
That's it.

@futurebird Could well be.
Or maybe she's hoping that bringing the #EpsteinFiles back into the news will give her husband a heart attack and speed up her inheritance. Who knows?

I doubted she has access to his money. The only thing this guy loves more than his ego is money. After that girls. Then lawyers, then his buildings. I will be surprised of members of his family gets into top 10 of his priorities.
He gives her some breadcrumbs like the movie that Jeff Bezos paid and she has some change to buy hats.

The awkward thing is that in an alternate universe not that different from our own a young Melania could have been trafficked by Epstein. He had a guy who ran around Eastern Europe offering teen girls "modeling jobs" and taking their passports.
She has to know about that world. She was at least adjacent to it if not a part of it. Does she care about those other girls? Or does she just step on their necks in her high heels as she climbs higher?

I have the feeling she's one of those women who would say "they knew what they were getting in to"
This is the attitude of people who recognize that the world can be exploitative and unfair, but who think that those who get taken advantage of deserve it.
What a very ugly way to be, especially for a former Einstein Visa fashion model. For our first lady. The embodiment of that All American dream of marrying a wealthy man who becomes more wealthy and more powerful.

@futurebird I thinks she's already told us exactly how much she cares through her fashion choices
Melania Trump says 'don't care' jacket was a message
Mrs Trump's own team had denied that her clothing during a visit to a detention centre had any meaning.
