And I'm being generous to call that dancing. Looks a bit more like restraining.

The cringe worthiness of it was quite memorable. When he lip synced the words I felt a humiliation, that would become a very familiar feeling unfortunately.

I thought that was considered wrong in their right wing christian book. I guess only if you are a democrat. Both couples dance more awkwardly than kids at a junior high dance.

I miss the Obamas. They danced with grace and dignity like two people in love.

her look awkward.

Yeah, I remember that dance when the Obamas did it. I was entranced by their grace.

"and now the end is near"....

Oh, if only.

How awkward they are together and what a stupid grin on his ugly face. When he first started to pull her over, it looked to me like Melania was trying to get a wedgie out of her butt.

"It took them four hours to do this hair and makeup, if you fuck it up I'll kill you" look on her face.

You can tell she doesn't love him. It's like he's an assignment.

Hell, she doesn't even like him!

As for me, I just want to wipe that smirk off his ugly face. The only one who gets to wear one is DU's own smirkymonkey. Hi, smirky!

20. Melania suffers from kyphosis -- a spine condition

Commonly called hump back. Kyphosis is why elderly women may walk bent over and can't stand up straight.

You can see it in this photo. The head thrust forward, the shoulder roumded
