1/ In a sense, the outrage I see around on this is boring. And insulting. Doubletalk doesn't require an advanced degree: Animal Farm suffices.

2/ We've been pointing out that:
(a) Melania Trump has committed fraud against the USCIS more than once and her current visa is inconsistent with the requirements of the EB-1A visa (I have one, I know what it takes: she would never be approved legally)

3/
(b) That the most vocal anti-immigrant spokespeople are connected with immigrant work exploitation and human trafficking;

4/ (c) That all the evidence points to Melania Trump having been a sex worker. "Adult model" is a euphemism for pornography. People who work as pornography models ARE sex workers.

5/ (d) That drooling evangelicals see no problem in defending the death penalty for women who have an abortion and in keeping prostitution illegal while their first lady is one. Or was, if you consider the marriage deal out of the sex work field.

6/ 5/ Bits and pieces of new evidence don't change all we already knew. So it doesn't really make sense to express outrage. I understand outrage for some shocking new information about some heinous crime. But this... Really, it's old news.
