That's hideous!

The color reminds me of the Pepto I need after looking at that dress.
How to lose credibility while posting:
1. Trump is never wrong.
2. Default to the most puerile emoticon you can find. This is especially useful when you can't win an argument on merits.
3. Be falsely ingratiating, completely but politely dismissive without talking to the points, and bring up Hillary whenever the conversation is really about conservatism.
4. When all else fails, remember rule #1 and #2. Emoticons are like the poor man's tweet!

While I'm a huge fan of hers, the dress is hideous. There's no way around that. Now, compared to Mooch in her Chrysler building dress? Mooch wins the hideousness hands down.
One dress that looks like it was made by Christo. I'll give her a mulligan on that one. And I'm the one who wondered who spilled what on her outfit at the last minute...

I think Melania's  selection of ttire has been far better than that of her predecessor, and I'm just not a fan of this outfit. Big deal. She'll have something different on tomorrow, and chances are very good that I will find it more appealing.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I don't give a shit about the cut of her coat, but did anybody listen to the speech?

Sorry.  I should have made my post plainer.  I meant the Libs complaining at the link, not those here.

It was my fault.  I often write what I'm thinking not realizing that I need to clarify as others here are not mind readers.  If you hadn't spoken up, others may have thought I was referring to themselves when I was not.

The dress was horrible. She usually looks nice but there have been a handful of times lately she has worn some pretty awful looking outfits that reminded me quite a bit of the type of thing Michelle would wear. I wondered what she was thinking or if she just didn't want to hurt a designer's feelings. I'm not terribly worried about what she is wearing as long as it is modest. I suppose she has to have so many dresses because she can't wear the same thing twice that it is had not to end up with a stinker every once in awhile.

What got my attention, once I put my sunglasses on, was the topic of her speech. My jaw just about hit the floor. Cyberbulling? Is she not aware of her husband's twitter account? Trump is the Bully In Chief for crying out loud.

For the most part, aside from a few ugly dresses which don't really matter all that much, she rarely puts a foot wrong and I can't find much to criticize her for. She always keeps a low profile and doesn't seem interested in sticking her nose into the politics of it all. She seems more inclined to want to keep her child protected. But this speech was definitely bad optics and it wasn't just the dress. But of course the media focused on the neon dress with the big sleeves and completely missed the problem with the speech.

I commend her for being concerned about cyberbullying and children but considering who her husband is it is probably not the best choice for her for activism.

Kim Jong-un is a terrible person, if that is whom you are referring to who has been cyberbullied, I see no problem with that at all.  Other names your description might fit might include Hillary Clinton or maybe, some candidate who ran a very dirty campaign per the word of one of the other candidates. That's a rather broad critique on Trump to not specify whom he bullied.

Oh, for starters, Lyin' Ted, and Little Marco, and... Come on Tom do I really need to go on? THe twitornado is almost always hammering someone.

It is an icky outfit. So unlike most of what she wears. If we can't say so, it is time to start sending out fashion snowflake awards.

Thank you, that's helpful. Well, I guess we can all agree then, it is like Rubio said, Cruz ran one of the dirtiest campaigns in recent memory.  There must be a mental block with Cruz supporters on this issue; since they seem unable to recognize what is largely acknowledged by everyone else.

Yes, Trump has had unkind comments to Rubio and possibly to Fiorina. I'm not positive if the remarks to Rubio were on twitter or during the debate, articles show that the two exchanged insults.

Campaigning is known to be a dirty game. So, rightfully, we see Trump should. Perhaps the snowflake label should be applied elsewhere.

Not my fault, if Cruz supporters get all upset when one points out what has been roundly reported in the press, dirty tricks and lies. Now, we have that out of the way.

Just like that hurricane bill and saying it was full of pork which it wasn't, and who knows about this porn like off of Cruz's net account, could be another lie saying a staffer did it.

So, sorry if someone sticks up for someone, but of course, now, this has to be dragged into the mud.

The Beck, Cruz, Levin machine have used the smear on others a lot, they've lost their halo and shouldn't think they are above criticism if this is who this is about.  They helped make the rules, so don't complain if it goes the other way.

I wonder if Melania can sue the designer (or her stylist) for the sleeves?  FWIW, this dress would have been lovely without them.

Cruz-ers show they are decent at cyberbullying themselves, don't criticize the great perfect Mr. Conservative Cruz; is their anything you agree with Cruz on? Or is it typical of all Cruz-ers just to use his name to rip on others?

Maybe you oughtta get two slices of bread, for your dirty talk, can't do better than harass others over free speech?

Sad to say that most of what Melania wears is not appropriate for the occasion.
Yes, most of the clothes are beautiful and cost thousands of dollars each.
