Why would someone be humiliated that their money laundering scheme is laundering money?

You people don't honestly believe she gives a shit, right? And you certainly must recognize this movie as just being a grift, and that it wasn't made with the intention or expectation of being successful, right?

Please tell me you all aren't that fucking blind.

    I also believe that above all else, this was a money laundering scheme.

    That being said, I feel like there was a part of her that was hoping this documentary about her life would be revered as incredibly interesting and a work of art. Like, single digit ticket sales is incredibly bad... I don't care who you are - that's gotta sting. And that's hilarious.

    And why is there wall to wall clickbait headlines about the Melania movie to begin with?

    Please tell me you all aren’t that fucking blind.

    I read she made $30M from the film - that's pretty shockingly obscene compared to all the big tech innaguration bribes - of "only" $1M.
