    That's odd. What has Melania done to deserve that kind of treatment? I don't blame her for Trump's victory.

    These fashion designers do have to sell their products to Mrs Trump,

    but they don't have to give them to her like they have to previous first ladies.

    what if you object to interracial marriages on religious grounds?

    What if you just don't like short people?

    I personally don't like people with those stupid earrings.

    I consider myself pretty consistent about the only people who should be discriminated against.....Laker fans.

    Many mainstream stores stopped selling Beatles records after John Lennon said we're more popular than Jesus.....a fashion designer can refuse to make anyone a dress if they like......

    agreed, just like a baker can refuse to make a cake for anyone he wants.

    the only time where your services should be forced for everyone is when tax payers are paying your salary.

    From her byline: "She's a proud graduate of the University of Florida, where she earned a B.A. in economics. She also has an M.A. in political communications from American University." So off-hand I'm guessing for a good long while.

    I'm pretty sure he meant only the muslims would be allowed to say it by the crybullies.
