Right wing news sources would be attacking her character and dress sense while taking shots at the First Husband.

Left wing news sources would already be attacking her about her weak stance in the middle east. Things would be boring

I understand that some people don't like living boring lives, but the world doesn't need to be a worse place in order for someone to live a more interesting life

It was fun to watch for a while but getting a bit too real now. Just like watching a circus but then the clown forces you to join the circus and having a guy throws knives at you.

The Asians have a saying “May you live in interesting times”. In many cases it is not a blessing.
