Sad wax
She took a seat at the end of the sofa, her legs like an Amazon, then put her left hand on her right, before frowning and freezing… While Donald Trump talks with the president of the equator Lenin Moreno , Melania Trump waits like a wax statue, impassive, motionless. Is it the function which imposes such stiffness on him or his green coat, worn "Italian style", that is to say without having put on the sleeves, which constrains his movements to the point of giving him this inanimate look? Let's not just exclude the life that weighs heavily on him.
Head words
To the right of Melania, on a side table which will be praised for the impeccable luster, is a row of red caps bearing, in white letters, a thundering slogan. In fact, for a few months, the traditional "Make America Great Again" has turned into a "Keep America Great" implying that Donald Trump has already turned the United States around and that the challenge is to get him re-elected next November… Depressing? Los Angeles firm Cali-Fame, the exclusive producer of pro-Trump hats, will obviously say no.
Beach madras
While most observers are trying to determine what this man is holding in his hand (is it an explosive detector, a microphone, an anti-hair brush or a pie server?) Let's focus on his tie. This one is indeed cut in madras, a cotton of Indian origin (the city, Madras, where it was designed, was renamed Chennai in 1996) characterized by its very light weight which makes it perfectly suitable for making a summer shirt, to be worn casually, on vacation, at the water's edge … And in a tie, at the White House? Bad idea.
Twisting yarn
How do you recognize a superpower? Obviously to the excess of its technological resources. Rather, judge. Beneath the side table, sit two corded telephones, with LED screen, most likely having an answering machine, a hands-free option and a directory. With any luck, they even allow you to send faxes. What if, after all, this was proof that Donald Trump had really turned the United States around? Think about it.
Sofa and war
Since everything seems to be political, couldn't this three-seat sofa be "geopolitical"? This one is indeed covered with a damask, a monochrome fabric characterized by its satin patterns, invented in the 12the century, in Damascus, Syria. Which gives us the opportunity to recall that if Trump claims to restore his greatness to America, he also abruptly pulled out of Syria last fall, abandoning his Kurdish allies. Now as isolated as Melania on her sofa…
