The Melania documentary is some premium schadenfreude. It’s a fawning study of the profoundly uninteresting Melania Trump, directed by disgraced pervert Brett Ratner, with Melania herself as executive producer (the sure sign of an objective documentary!), and Melania scoring a personal payout of $28 million from it.
Why does Melania even exist at all, and who is this for?! Well, let’s just say that funding a vanity documentary about the First Lady is an easy way of winning Donald Trump’s favor, which may or may not have been on Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos’ mind when he paid $40 million for it.
