Melania Trump is apparently lonely, obsessed with Michelle Obama and a bit racist -- at least that's the story according to acclaimed writer Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie.

In a new short story commissioned for and by The New York Times Book Review, Adichie imagined an exchange between the first lady, whom she refers to as "Mrs. T" in the text, and her black Pilates instructor, Janelle.

The micro-novel is titled Janelle Asked to the Bedroom, and paints Trump as a forlorn, reluctant first lady and wife of a president who expresses unease with her political fame.

In Adichie's fictional account, Mrs T invites her Pilates instructor into her bedroom, instead of their usual meeting place in the first lady's home gym. Janelle is surprised to find her "disheveled" and her manner appearing "distracted."

There, Mrs T, who Adichie described in her story as envious of her predecessor's ease into the first lady role, reveals to Janelle a video of Michelle Obama visiting a classroom and photos of her she's saved to her laptop that she says she looks at for "inspiration."

The first lady is also portrayed in the story as displaying casual racism her husband, President Trump, has been accused of sharing.

When Janelle tells Mrs T that her son was admitted into Harvard University, Mrs T responds, asking, “He got scholarship to go?”

“How automatic, this assumption of a scholarship, and Janelle knew she meant a scholarship not of smarts but of skin,” Adichie penned in her account.

Adichie's short story follows another text she wrote for the Times earlier last year in the months leading up to the presidential election, in which she portrayed the first lady as quietly doubting Trump's chance of winning.

Have you heard about PizzaGate? There's supposedly evidence linking Hilary Clinton's foundation to a pedophile ring. I can't say for sure if its true but it was a big deal when the news came out.

Any news about a political figure is a big deal. Cmon you’re too smart for this.

All these satanist will never rest with their false accusation against Trump , at a time Adichie should be condemning Hillary clinton for heading a peadophile secret cult , massive corruption in the Russian Uranium purchase deal , theft of donation from haiti and various murder suspicions hanging on her head , hate filled and jealous Chimanda decides to stir up fiction against the quiet and humble Melania Trump ..Fact be told America is onto a very good wave with President Trump as its jas been one a story of one record shattering economic growth to another since he came

Adichie is trying hard to ride on the racist disposition of Trump and family to garner myriad readerships to her book. It's not needful. Trump deserves his peace.


Blacks are more racist than Whites according to my research.

Look no further, come home. Igbos believe they are the superior race and look down on Yorubas and Hausas/Fulanis, that it's a mistake sharing one country. The Hausas/Fulanis/Yorubas believe they are the highborns and would be better off without the Igbos and others. Is Nigeria a white country?

Michelle Obamas intelligence is no where comparable to Melania Trump.
Melania plagiarized Michelle Obamas speech same way Buhari plagiarized Barack Obamas speech during their presidential inaugurations.

So when was the question on intelligence asked?

How can she paint Trump's wife a racist when she has never met her before? I know Trump himself is, but this lady came from Slovenia for the American Dream many years ago. I don't want to believe she is a racist.

Whoever relates with trump closely must either be a racist or distorted uncle Tom. That guy is a pure Kkk man in whitehouse and the people that works for him always come across as nazi propagandists, always confused,out of point and senselessly aggressive.

Spot on! If ppl only knew how corrupt the Clintons were as well as their inner circle they would be shocked. Look im no Trump fan, but Hillary is worse but she is just very coy and knows how to work the public whereas Donald Trump is blunt. Ive said many times Trump didnt win the election, but Hillary lost it because ppl just couldnt see themselves voting for that witch. Now her husband on the other hand, with all his issues was propably one of the best presidents the USA has ever had, but charecter thats a diferent story.

Same issue I have about Obama, great guy but as a president, utter failure sorry.

ElvishKing:


Do you think this is a joke? Most of you cant even twitch your cerebral powers. If you think paedophilia is a joke or does not exist, you are incapable of thinking for yourself.

Btw: the Clinton's are very currupt politicians. The billions they stole from Haiti alone is enough to make them go to jail forever.

Zimbabwe and not long ago black south africans were killing other blacks. Go to other african countries and you will see that all is not sun and flowers towards other africans. I believe that there is racism in all cultures and the idea that only whites can be racist and blacks are never is one of the biggest phantom myths of all times.

This is the talk and belief that caused Hillary to lose the election and is costing the democrats headaches till today. I agree that there may be some that support Trump for racist reasons, but the majority ARE NOT RACIST. They support him because the feel their voice is not being heard and to paint with one paint brush by saying either you are racist or uncle tom is so shortsighted.

By the way you do know its on record that Louis Farrakhan supported donald trump, because he said Obama was shady. So is Louis Farrakhan an uncle tom?

My respect for this woman finished after I read her opinion on the whole same sex marriage issue that rocked Nigeria then. I remember my mum banned us from studying fine art or literature cuz it can corrode your morality. This lady is proof of that....
For those of you who will quote me, have fun.

Same sex marriage is unnatural but the world cannot abandon people who have no way of going back to who they were
your mum's primitive and backward mentality and stupid sense of 6th century morality has infected you, and I hope you don't infect your future generations with your primate mentality.

You are an exact match of the world view of Nigerians!

NosaHenry:
Why is she obsess about writing of America instead of her own country?

The woman just seems to be obsessed with first ladies. I think it's more of a jealousy thing. That was how she granted interview after interview about Michelle Obama, saying she forces her daughters to put hot irons in their hair, rather than leaving it natural.
Please what is her business with that?
She just wishes she was in their position, married to power, that should be what is spurring all this.

Lol. An example of someone that cant muster an argument. If you could, you would. But I get it. You are limited. So limited in fact that you had to run to go hide behind your language. The only way, I assume you can make yourself feel 'secure' 'happy' or 'important'. But you know, deep inside, you are lacking, so much so that nairaland is the only place you find consolation, away from your sorrows and unhappiness.

Well, sometimes it is good to shut up when you have nothing important to contribute to society
