Melania Trump's Official White House Biography
The new White House website is live, and although it is scrubbed clean of things like civil rights and climate change, it is now filled with some very lovely biographies of our new President and first lady.
Melania Trump's page is of particular interest, as it's basically just a very comprehensive CV for her modeling career - complete with magazine covers and QVC jewelry line.
The Washington Post points out that while noting the accomplishments of the first lady
It is not uncommon for the White House to note the accomplishments of the first lady in her official biography, but that Melania's "detailed" description of her media appearances is "unusual." And this is after the website was cleared of all QVC mentions.
When the new White House site went live, Melania's bio read like an advertisement for her bracelets: “Melania is also a successful entrepreneur. In April 2010, Melania Trump launched her own jewelry collection, ‘Melania™ Timepieces & Jewelry,’ on QVC,” the site read.
A newly updated site erased mention of QVC: “Melania is also a successful entrepreneur. In April 2010, Melania Trump launched her own jewelry collection.”
Well, at least the Trumps didn't lie about Melania completing college, as they have in the past.
In regard's to Melania's education, the site reads, “She would pursue a degree at the University of Ljubljana in Slovenia, but pause her studies to advance her modeling career in Milan and Paris before moving to New York in 1996."
However, a biography of Trump distributed at the Republican National Convention, which copied her biography posted on the Trump Organization's website, said she started modeling after she obtained a degree in design and architecture at university in Slovenia. When reporters learned that she did not actually obtain a degree, that information was scrubbed from Trump's site.
