It was sad, to compare President Obama and Michelle dancing, to Meania and her owner, Emperor Caligula Carrot Brain, Donald the first of his name, dancing..
Beyoncé sang "At Last" for our First Couple.
At last my love has come along
My lonely days are over and life is like a song, oh yeah
At last the skies above are blue
My heart was wrapped up clover the night I looked at you
I found a dream that I could speak to
A dream that I can call my own
I found a thrill to press my cheek to
A thrill I've never known, oh yeah
You smiled, you smiled oh and then the spell was cast
And here we are in Heaven
For you are mine at last
This is a love song!
(Also, a dig at racists...)
They danced together, lovingly, with smiles, kisses and affection.
What did Melania get ?
Her owner sang about himself.
I Did It My Way
Melania kept her abused- wife- expression in poker face mode and smiled her empty, meaningless model's smile for the camera. Would not do, to cause eye wrinkles and laugh lines.
The song had nothing to do with sharing.
Nothing to do with "us."
The whole family pitched in to help him.
But, it was all about him.

I do imagine that the Carrot imagines himself embodying the representation of America, in the world. He is slightly more welcome in the UK,than Idi Amin was.
Trump remains a child in a 70 year old body.
His words remain Me First.
In service to his country?
Not in a million years.
Finally, all that “America first” talk during the inauguration codified his selfishness as policy. “From this day forward, a new vision will govern our land,” proclaimed Trump, as if coming down from the mountain. “From this day forward, it's going to be only America first.”
“Every decision on trade, on taxes, on immigration, on foreign affairs will be made to benefit American workers and American families,” he said. Screw that Jesus Christ and his Golden Rule about treating others as you’d like to be treated. Now you come first. Greed is god.
Trump’s worship of the self distracts, though, from the real problem. One week later, we’re starting to discover what makes Trump tick. His insecurity isn't rooted in some worry that he doesn't measure up, it's a product of fear. He's afraid of Muslims and immigrants, but he's more afraid of you and me.
I’m not afraid of Americans. I am not afraid of America. But Donald Trump sure is.
