OK, but they're not laughing because it's a stupid statement, unfortunately. They're laughing because he's mugging for the camera.

(24,050 posts)Truth is, I can't come up with someone who has a darker soul. She really is bipolar and passive-aggressive. They keep trying to tap into the Smiley Melania thing, confident that none of us have seen her scowling and seething and petulant.

(12,741 posts)she's not that fluent in English.
She sounds like she just go off the boat. She mangles the language almost as badly as the Rapist.
