Vanity Fair Offers Melania Trump the Magazine Cover, and Its Leftwing Lunatic Staff Threatns to "Walk Out the M*****f***in' Door"

This was before Taylor Swift announced her engagement, so these spiritually-empty and lonely AWFLs and angry gays still had a case of the grumpies.

Vanity Fair's new boss reportedly wants first lady Melania Trump to grace the glossy magazine's coveted cover -- leaving disgruntled woke staff threatening to "walk out the motherf--king door" if it goes ahead.

The fashion mag's global editorial director, Mark Guiducci, has floated the possibility of putting President Trump's wife on the cover of the Conde Nast-owned publication as he tries to make his mark in his newly minted role, Semafor reported.

But the mere thought of having the former model as a cover girl sparked fierce backlash from raging lefty staffers.

"I will walk out the motherf--king door, and half my staff will follow me,' one sensitive editor fumed to the Daily Mail.

"We are not going to normalize this despot and his wife; we're just not going to do it. We're going to stand for what's right," the unidentified staffer whined.

"If I have to work bagging groceries at Trader Joe's, I'll do it. If [Guiducci] puts Melania on the cover, half of the editorial staff will walk out, I guarantee it."

Others, meanwhile, dismissed the outrage -- insisting there's no way employees would give up such a prestigious job out of protest.

"It's all talk," one employee said.

...

Melania was notably excluded from Vanity Fair and Conde Nast's Vogue during Trump's first administration. That's in sharp contrast to Michelle Obama, who graced Vogue's cover three times while she was first lady.

Conde Nast's emotional turmoil may subside now, because Melania reportedly laughed down the offer.

If you can call it an "offer." It's an offer to make a nasty hostile corporation money. It does nothing for Melania, who was a real working model who was routinely paid to appear on magazine covers. It's not a Pretend-Model Make A Wish grant as it was with Michelle Obama and "Doctor" Jill Biden.

Vanity Fair staffers flipping out at the prospect of First Lady Melania Trump gracing the cover can rest easy.

She's not the slightest bit interested.

A fashion source familiar with the First Lady's thinking says she "laughed" at the Vanity Fair request in July and rejected it immediately.

"She doesn't have time to be sitting in a photo shoot. Her priorities as First Lady are far more important... These people don't deserve her anyway."
