On 9 December 2020, as fearless leader and saviour of the children, Donald J Trump continued the brave battle to “stop the steal” of the election by the demonrats, cnn.com reported that First Lady (and the Last Lady in my opinion) Melania Trump “just wants go home”, to Mar-a-Lago. The article goes on to mention that her parents have a suite of rooms there as well, and that “Melania Trump views Mar-a-Lago as a peaceful respite of sun, solitude and self-care”.
While I would have preferred to read that she would be standing by the fearless leader through thick and Biden, I get it. Being something of a kindred spirit, Melania’s inner journey is often uncannily aligned to my own. I too want to go home these holidays, and be surrounded by family, but thanks to the viral grinch that stole 2020, I have to stay put, and keep my distance from the loved ones I desperately want to see.
