In the exact same way that the only reason any woman would ever marry Donald Trump would be for the money, we’re starting to think that the only reason anyone would befriend Melania Trump is for the …prestige? It cannot possibly be due to Melania’s warmth and charm, her zest for life, love of adventure, and care for the less fortunate. Has Melania ever been pictured outside of a 20 square block in Midtown Manhattan, Washington DC, or a two-mile by two-mile area in Palm Beach? We suppose her friends enjoy the same places and the same lunches.

Stephanie Winston Wolkoff used to be Melania’s friend. Surprisingly, Stephanie seems fairly grounded and healthy in her outlook on life. Unsurprisingly, Stephanie had Melania figured out like tic-tac-toe, just as soon as questions started being asked about Trump’s inauguration. If one recalls, Trump “raised” more money than any other president for the shittiest inauguration in history. Stephanie planned the inauguration… for what at first seemed like a great deal of money.

As everyone knows, whenever there are stacks of “a great deal of money lying around” Trump grabs it, by whatever means necessary, legal or not. The smoke around the inauguration fire was that it’s possible Stephanie unwittingly played a role in just such a scheme or had turned state’s evidence. The whole ordeal ended in 2022, with the Trump Organization paying just $750K, a sickening and unfair ending to an obvious crime.

Luckily Stephanie figured out early that she needed to protect herself by recording phone calls with Melania. Most of these phone calls have been released, but being that Winston-Wolkoff is rather smart, you can assume she still has some audio proof if needed.

Now this article isn’t about the scandal behind Trump’s inaugural committee. Winston-Wolkoff releases a lot of details in this article with the New York Times and she is very active on X/Twitter if you want to learn more.

The tapes do not release anything new regarding the business transactions. They involve a “discussion” as to whether Winston-Wolkoff had been fired or not from her White House position in the First Lady’s East Wing Office. Some of it should have been used as evidence to what attorneys call “consciousness of guilt,” meaning “We gotta get rid of the gun,” which in this case was Winston-Wolkoff.

Of course, Stephanie was “fired,” whether by resignation or whatever else they called it, it is clear that she would not be working at the White House after problems arose with the inauguration money. Stephanie knew she was fired and felt betrayed, rightfully so. She knew she was being set-up to take the fall or she wouldn’t have been taping the call.

Melania, on the other hand, coldly – and we mean deep freeze ice of Antarctica-cold – insists that “NO,” Stephanie was not fired, it was just a problem with the lawyers and blah blah. The words are nearly meaningless, the lack of compassion, care, or even interest in Melania’s voice is the real story, and it’s captured perfectly on Stephanies tapes. Melania is just so nasty. With her mean girl giggles. You can practically hear Melania roll her eyes. What an awful, terrible person. No wonder it’s rumored that Melania has no friends outside her sister and parents.

How heartbreaking it must have been to be Stephanie. She really took her job seriously, and was honored to work in the White House. If you read Stephanie’s book, Melania & Me, you will see how seriously she took it. But she was forced to take the fall, by no mistake of her own. Because the alternative was Melania taking the fall. And that damned sure wasn’t going to happen:
