Mary Lincoln had a mental illness. She wasn’t crazy and weird as everyone keeps saying in the comments below. She had a tragic life. Her son dumped her off in a sanitarium and left her there.
Sandi Angel Robert Lincoln didn't just 'dump' his mom Mary Todd in an asylum. He kept trying to get her to see straight, be logical and act sane. She wouldn't, because she couldn't. Then when you start walking around nude everywhere and adamantly refuse to knock it off, something has to be done. He left her there because after he put her away she disowned him forever. She got out of course, moved to Germany and was as just mentally ill there too. She came back to live with other family in America, stayed insane then died. Mary suffered a lot in life, including migraines all her life. I'd go insane too for all that.
Preach, sister. Those women put up with their awful, womanizing husbands with a graciousness and a smile. I bet Jackie O. felt like the weight of the world was lifted off her shoulders when she married Aristotle and moved to Greece.
Lady Bird Johnson was one of the kindest and most thoughtful ladies it has been my pleasure to meet.What do I mean by this? Well after LBJ died she was allocated (as an ex First Lady) two secret service guys,who followed and protected her all over the world. She stayed(with them) in The Dorchester (where I worked).They were supposed to sit outside her suite(on 12 hour shifts)but she didn't like the guys sitting on an uncomfortable chair in a corridor for that long. So she made them sit IN the suite,watch TV and have coffee and sandwiches.As she said to me ,it was also to her benefit,as being on her own in a suite was rather lonely,and it was nice to have someone to talk to.As you will gather,the Secret Service guys liked her immensely.
I was a page for her at a big function in Austin when I was quite young. My mother was on the organizing committee, it was some kind of fundraiser, and I was assigned her table. The table also seated Mrs. Ford. I was SO giddy with excitement, I nearly made her FALL into her chair as I pushed in it for her! More like .. shoved it under her, and knocked the back of her knees!! To this day, I cannot even remember WHERE that was! Our family lakehouse was across from the LBJ's lakehouse up on Lake LBJ in Kingsland, Texas. EVERY time they'd come up, you could hear the LOUDEST varrrroom varrrrooommm varrrooom going on, it literally echoed up and down the lake! It was the two Secret Service boats warming up, preparing to lead and follow the big boat out onto the lake. The big boat of their's (really, it was a seagoing yacht) would slowly back out of the completely enclosed boat house and set off towards the main part of the lake. We were more up the Llano River part. I was a teen then, and we'd all get in our ski boats, head out to the boat where LBJ would let us climb aboard and dive off the very top part of the boat, time after time! Totally different times back then! No one was SO security minded, even after what had happened to JFK! Lady Bird was the sweetest lady ever! That big function was years later in Austin, but she remembered me from that summer up at the lake! To this day, I plant her wildflowers wherever I go, and if bluebonnets will survive wherever it is ... I plant more of them than anything! She is why we have such gorgeous highways & byways in the USA! A fine lady, gentle, sweet, kind and with an eye to beauty in all things. HE was lucky to have her! We were lucky to have him as our president too!
I most definitely did not know Lady Bird, but I did meet her and daughter Lynda on separate occasions. Both ladies were gracious, likable, and not the least bit aloof.
Most of these are more just sad than “weird”. Lady Bird was so desperate to keep her husbands attention that she emulated another woman- yeah it’s weird but it’s more devastatingly sad.
Dude, nothing on this list was weird. Btw, Eleanor and Pat were fucking amazing, and they should have been the ones in office. In Eleanor's case, she practically was, especially as her husband's post-polio syndrome advanced.
Well, no, not in Texas that long ago! We didn't even HAVE gynos in many places! LOL But she went because she had acquired the old "honeymooner's itch" .... UTI from lots of sex! But enough said of that! She was a private lady. HE couldn't keep his pants zipped! Pretty typical for a male Texan in those days ... and for many, in THESE days, too! LOL
Eleanor Roosevelt was a champion for women, minorities and the poor. That made her weird? What about consulting with mediums and astrologers? There should have been mention about those First Ladies who were involved in these activities.
First of all, to describe these former first ladies' as "weird" is not only disrespectful but it ignores the fact that women have had to fight and work incredibly hard in the time they lived in. Pat Nixon lived with that awful man for years and it has only recently come out that Mr. Nixon was physically and mentally abusive. Eleanor Roosevelt cared about worker's, war vets and women. She was a born First Lady who had an overwhelming sense of responsibility to her country. Melania could take a few notes from Eleanor. I would like to know why the writers and editors of this list find it 'weird' that women haven't always been treated equal(not that we are now)? Are you so clueless about history that you don't understand the plight of the woman? Are you so ignorant of the historical norms that you don't realize that Eleanor Roosevelt was the first spouse to speak on behalf of her husband at his first DNC convention? Seriously, this was a dumb list. I expected better than this clueless, child-like list that shows no understanding or value of American history.
they are no better or different than the people next door nor are the "Totals". We should not worship or bow down to paid trusted servants and yes, gossiping is not nice but 90% of humans do it.
Our current first lady is anything but elegant and her husband is worse then the annoying orange and he looks like the annoying orange as well. Edit: Americans are not proud of the trainreck first family you call "beautiful" I am an American born and raised and I was so deeply ashamed at the results of the election when it came out. I'm just glad that people are coming to their senses and want to get rid of Dump before he makes matters worse. I also can't wait to vote in the next presidential election since I was to young for the other

You should tell the whole story. Lady Bird, for example. Great woman. Environmentalist. She pioneered the concept of “picking up litter” and outlawing billboards in the interstate system, and landscaping them. The Forestry program, public investment in national parks. A total support to her husband too. Don’t underestimate that.
I'm not seeing anything "weird" about Lady Bird or Pat. They married men who were difficult to deal with and they carried it off well. As for Lady Bird's super-short engagement, that was normal then. People were supposed to get married if they wanted to do the wild thing with each other, so they didn't wait around.
"Weird"???????? just normal but famous and sometimes really rich. and to call Eleanor Roosevelt weird? you have no idea how deeply angry that makes me - beyond angry. How dare you!?? She was a great lady and great person. She did many things for the world and for people. totally, you should ashamed!!!!
That's the first I've heard of that. Very sad. If I was Pat, I would have kicked that ugly mofo in the jowls with my high heels. It would have been nothing less than he deserved.
+Penny Layne After I made my comment, I wanted to know more. I Googled 'Pat Nixon abused by Dick.' A few articles came up. The people who would talk about it seemed to be fairly reliable sources. Tricia Nixon Cox denies the abuse and there is no actual evidence to prove abuse. But you have to realize that this was during a time when being abused was shameful to women and something they didn't talk about to other people unless they could trust them to keep quiet about it. The same could be said for parental abuse of children. Outsiders often knew there was abuse going on but they rarely reported such things to law enforcement. Back then abuse was considered to be a family matter and people kept their mouths shut.
Grunge tries to redefine the definition of 'weird' with this silly and outta place video. If you pay attention to this 'slow Sunday at UA-cam' type of video, you can easily come to the conclusion the script was written by a guy(s) with little to none experience with women. Heck, in several cases, the husbands were the weird ones. According to Grunge it is weird to: appear in commercials, to win Mother of the Year, to try to keep your marriage together even your husband is a social butterfly, to wear jewelry, to have social media accounts, befriending the media or raising money for charity. Quality over quantity, Grunge, Remember that.
To call any one of our First Ladies "weird" is plain stupid and ignorant. It's not easy to be the wife of a U.S. President. I admire all of these courageous women for giving up a lot to stand by their husbands during their presidential term(s), and the sacrifices they've made to help our country and their historical contributions.
"Ugliness is so grim," Lady Bird Johnson once said. "A little beauty, something that is lovely, I think, can help create harmony which will lessen tensions." She took that thought and applied it to her beautification program for the United States to great sucess. She was the first First Lady to actually be politically involved in any issue before Congress. Lady Bird herself saw her conservation and beautification work as deeply interwoven with President Johnson's Great Society agenda.And it certainly was successful, it's still ongoing to this very day! I always loved that bumper sticker, too! :-) Said SO much besides 'don't be a litterbug!'
Seriously??? You have Jackie Kennedy, Eleanor Roosevelt and Melania Trump on this list... but you don't even have the most bat-shit-crazy woman of all, Mary Todd Lincoln?!? Who did your research Grunge!?
I wonder how many of us would retain our sanity after having suffered as she did. She married Lincoln despite the warnings of her family and others that he was a suicidal depressive but she saw greatness in him.
Good on Jackie. Leigh got played. Even if my sister murdered my husband, I would never sleep with hers for two reasons; 1. I'm Nobody's side chick. Never have been and never will be. 2. Blood is blood. Leigh thought she was winning by shtuping the president and then her sister got wifed by Leigh's fling. Proving she was the side chick to both of them. That's why you don't do shit like that. What goes around comes around.
To all of the rude dumb comments. Here's one President that most probably thought his wife was weird. Him most of all for not hiding her away. President McKinley wasn't ashamed of his wife having seizures. He wouldn't even hide her from people from other countries. While having them. Even staff members would be fired for talking bad about.
@Michael DiLorenzo Things were different about how those people were treated. For example those that were blind, deaf, received just as bad treatment if not worse. The reason why President McKinley did put the handkerchief on her face. Was so others wouldn't stare at her. She wouldn't come out and see all of them starring at her. Please consider this neurologists don't know what starts seizures. Especially for those who are born with them. The Partial Mall seizures there's up to 82 different kinds of those.
@Michael DiLorenzo During their time period people with her condition were put into asylums. So they weren't an embarrassment to anyone. Seizures can also start and stop at any age. Depending on many circumstances. The type what's causing them.
This shows why we have to take information from sources like this with a grain of salt. Lee Radziwill may have dated Onassis but she was not his girlfriend. I remember how crushed we all were for Maria Callas, the opera star, when the Jackie-Aristotle engagement was announced. Maria was his girlfriend and had been for 8 years. It is doubtful that Aristotle called Lee.
Mary Lincoln had a truly sad life. Her mother died when Mary was quite young and her father promptly remarried. Then, after she married Lincoln, they lost three of their four sons. Robert, the oldest child, was afraid his widowed mother would spend all her money, leaving none for him to inherit, so he had her declared insane by doctors who had never met or examined her. She was sent to a mental hospital but later gained her release and never forgave Robert. She spent the last years of her life traveling in Europe, lonely and physically ill. This lady should have spent that time with her grandchildren, but she only met one of them. Robert's wife threatened to leave him if he brought her to live in their home. If you've ever seen pictures or visited Hildene, the Robert Todd Lincoln home in Vermont, know that it was purchased with money his mother left him. He never earned the money to buy it.
Lyndon Johnson was a jerk through and through. Melania does not belong on this list. She is an amazing First Lady. She has been treated like dirt from day one. Shame on media.
Eleanor Roosevelt Was The Most Amazing Woman In American History " She Was Always Doing Something For Our Country " The Rest Weren't As Great As She Was 🤔 Thanks Eleanor Roosevelt 😉
@@tomdececco2806 She was a model. Most all models these days have shown everything, including actresses. Apparently you don't see her as a person, only breasts. You could have said anything about our first lady and you come up with that. Apparently, they made a big impression on you or you wouldn't have even mentioned it.
@@harrykuheim6107 It's gross and petty to go after appearance just because you don't agree. Looks are subjective and you're showing how immature you are.
I think it’s mean to say Ladybird was weird. She dressed like her husbands mistress that’s incredibly heartbreaking And how was Julia Tyler bad? She was the first to use her status to her advantage. It’s very pro feminine to me
Julia Gardiner was a famous beauty from a stunningly rich and prominent New York Family, (Gardiner's Island), related to all the prominent Dutch, English and Huguenot families of New York.
Jackie used to go shopping with a allowance that Onassis gave her. She would buy A dozen of the same item in different colors and resale the items at a high end thrift store and pocket the cash. 🤣
well that old saying you learn something new everyday sure is through here. I didn't realize that Jackie Kennedy's husband slept with her sister and that she married her sister's boyfriend after Jack died. Wow talk about love between sisters I thought my relationship was bad with mine
Damn it sounds like lady bird did not say no, but he messed around on her anyway. Her husband was an under the table behind the Green door racist. I don't back up from saying that
00:25 “Their honeymoon in Mexico involved so much physical intimacy that when Lady Bird got back to the states the first thing she did was see a gynecologist, normally a routine examination before marriage, she neglected to make the appointment in a rush to the altar, but given her husbands notorious appetite for women the exam more or less made sure that she could even handle the future presidents constant advances, but no doctor could help her with her husbands wondering am eye.”
This video is a SHAM. Not only is it filled with unsubstantiated silly gossip about the first ladies, it contains ABSOLUTELY NO FACTS. Shame on the person who composed it and posted it.
Honestly, can you blame our First Lady for not using her Flotus account online much? She hasn't been treated the nicest by the public and she seems to be a very nice person herself, so that would be tough if you ask me. I personally think she is the best First Lady we have had since Jacqueline Kennedy. She is beautiful, a wonderful mother, seems to have a wonderful life of her own, and shows great restraint when faced with difficult situations, such as people leaving rude remarks about her past modeling career. In my opinion, they are just jealous that she is so beautiful.
Please refer to a dictionary! I'm not even a Trump supporter BUT her following him on Twitter isn't weird nor trolling (and the photo shoot is ironic, not weird)!!!! Being voted "best of" isn't weird either, just because her husband was Nixon; HELLO opposites attract.
There are many opinions about who was our greatest President, but I think it’s almost universally agreed that Eleanor Roosevelt was our greatest First Lady.
The Joker of course it’s hard to diagnose people after they’re dead, but a lot historians think that she probably had some sort of bipolar disorder. so it wasn’t just her being “crazy” for the sake of being dramatic, she was mentally ill. which is probably why her son put her in a mental asylum in her later age.
Because Michelle Obama is a woman she's not a man! You need to stop putting out fake B S like that! Just like former President Obama was the Anti-Christ. And no it's not the reason why hes not hes black! JUST STOP!!!!
@Adam Defibaugh Still it doesn't mean that Michelle Obama is a man she is a woman I know what's going on in this world but I do know that she is not a man so you're wrong dude!
I feel sorry for Pat Nixon, not because she was married to the former president but because the former president was so disliked. Richard Nixon wasn't particularly handsome or charming or witty. He was a very ordinary man and he took a lot of flack for not being a "Kennedy".
My Ex husband used to say that she sounded like a Mentally Challenge person. Well,he said the other word that I despised he used the term Retarded Voice. I hate that R word.
I liked the Jackie Kennedy's beautiful manners and feminine behavior (I wasn't alive then, but I've seen videos, interviews etc) but I don't understand why she was thought of as beautiful or intelligent. She wasn't pretty at all, very bland - that sort of inbred look that the extremely wealthy 'old money' families have. Plus, she spoke like she was a bit slow, like a 12 year old girl. She obviously had something about her because she married two powerful men. Very odd.
@@lastdays3148 retarded just means "slowed down". Words are just words. People who are now called "cognitively impaired" or "developmentally disabled" used to be called imbeciles, morons, idiots, etc. until someone said those words - which accurately described them, were mean, so then they said retarded - slowed down (like flame retardant slows down fire - does that offend you?) was "mean" and they came up with different words and on it goes. It's ridiculous to pretended that someone with a low IQ isn't retarded because they are. It doesn't make them bad or useless and I certainly don't advocate for their death before birth like most of those word nazis do, it's just an accurate description, like being called "bright" or "gifted" or "genius".
It can also be said, that despite the circumstances, these ladies stood up for what they believe in. And did their best to give a voice to the causes they believe in. Melina Trump is an exception, but she has time to come around--hopefully soon. Who knows, she is probably reading and editing her husbands tweets. Which would explain the spelling mistakes.
These literally aren't weird. Some are woman sticks with husband even tho he cheats??? Weird! Woman is pretty??? How strange. Woman is strong and tries to get the attention she deserves??? That's super weird! Edit: Now I'm sad and pissed off :(
Mary Lincoln had a mental illness. She wasn’t crazy and weird as everyone keeps saying in the comments below. She had a tragic life. Her son dumped her off in a sanitarium and left her there.
Miles Trollokopolous yea but at the same time a lot of rich kids do that to their parents. Just leave them in a home
That's terrible!

But in Jackie Kennedy's day it was full figured women that were considered beautiful which is maybe why JFK preferred Marilyn Monroe to his wife.
Right? Great point! No matter how ‘perfect’ you are, a cheater will still dip out.
In the environment in which Jackie and Lee grew up, it was expected that men would cheat all the time. They didn’t know anything else.
How are they weird again? You could just as easily say that it was really the husbands that were weird and no them.
I can’t believe you named these First Ladies as weird! The all made history!

What's so weird about Ladybird not wanting her husband to sleep around...? Or Pat Nixon being admired? Stopped watching after that.
What? Gynecological tests are normal pre marriage in the US? I assume not anymore? ALSO how is Mrs Johnson's medical gyno health public?

By some accounts, Mary Todd Lincoln was physically abusive towards President Lincoln. That's pretty weird.
So ladybird Johnson was 'weird" because she desperately tried to keep her husband, in a time where divorce was viewed as a failure? Come on....
To call any one of our First Ladies "weird" is plain stupid and ignorant. It's not easy to be the wife of a U.S. President. I admire all of these courageous women for giving up a lot to stand by their husbands during their presidential term(s), and the sacrifices they've made to help our country and their historical contributions.
Johnson and Nixon were completely unnecessary. Neither of those ladies were “weird” 🙄
Lbj was a lil weird too... he would have staff meatings while on the john (taking a dump) with the door open.
It was lady bird Johnson who started the anti littering movement in Texas, thus the ancient bumper sticker "don't mess with Texas"
"Ugliness is so grim," Lady Bird Johnson once said. "A little beauty, something that is lovely, I think, can help create harmony which will lessen tensions." She took that thought and applied it to her beautification program for the United States to great sucess. She was the first First Lady to actually be politically involved in any issue before Congress. Lady Bird herself saw her conservation and beautification work as deeply interwoven with President Johnson's Great Society agenda.And it certainly was successful, it's still ongoing to this very day! I always loved that bumper sticker, too! :-) Said SO much besides 'don't be a litterbug!'
Seriously??? You have Jackie Kennedy, Eleanor Roosevelt and Melania Trump on this list... but you don't even have the most bat-shit-crazy woman of all, Mary Todd Lincoln?!? Who did your research Grunge!?
I wonder how many of us would retain our sanity after having suffered as she did. She married Lincoln despite the warnings of her family and others that he was a suicidal depressive but she saw greatness in him.
I have to agree.. She was a sad sack and should be on the list
Probably Snopes lol. How about LBJs mistress that confessed he was the one who called the hit on JFK?
Plus, she lost 3 of her four sons at young ages. That alone would be enough to destroy any mother.
Melania is not weird?
Andrew Jackson did not know that his wife was still married to her first husband when he married her.
Hillary should be #1 on this list!!!
Surf Dogg
Second to melania Trump ¡!
And Michelle
Surf Dogg hitlery for prison!!!
Sade Sade aka Michael
Good on Jackie. Leigh got played. Even if my sister murdered my husband, I would never sleep with hers for two reasons;
1. I'm Nobody's side chick. Never have been and never will be.
2. Blood is blood. Leigh thought she was winning by shtuping the president and then her sister got wifed by Leigh's fling. Proving she was the side chick to both of them.
That's why you don't do shit like that. What goes around comes around.
Well said… karma IS a bitch!
To all of the rude dumb comments. Here's one President that most probably thought his wife was weird. Him most of all for not hiding her away. President McKinley wasn't ashamed of his wife having seizures. He wouldn't even hide her from people from other countries. While having them. Even staff members would be fired for talking bad about.
@Michael DiLorenzo Yes he covered her face while she had the seizures. During that time period people with those disabilities were put in asylums.
@Michael DiLorenzo Things were different about how those people were treated. For example those that were blind, deaf, received just as bad treatment if not worse. The reason why President McKinley did put the handkerchief on her face. Was so others wouldn't stare at her. She wouldn't come out and see all of them starring at her. Please consider this neurologists don't know what starts seizures. Especially for those who are born with them. The Partial Mall seizures there's up to 82 different kinds of those.
@Michael DiLorenzo During their time period people with her condition were put into asylums. So they weren't an embarrassment to anyone. Seizures can also start and stop at any age. Depending on many circumstances. The type what's causing them.
Hillary’s not on the weird list she’s on the bat crazy list 🦇
WHAT!? No Dolly Madison? The greatest First Lady we ever had.
This shows why we have to take information from sources like this with a grain of salt. Lee Radziwill may have dated Onassis but she was not his girlfriend. I remember how crushed we all were for Maria Callas, the opera star, when the Jackie-Aristotle engagement was announced. Maria was his girlfriend and had been for 8 years. It is doubtful that Aristotle called Lee.
Lady Bird Johnson was more pathetic than weird.
She was very much a product of her time; be subservient to your husband, turn a blind eye to his skirt-chasing, and keep your mouth shut.
Stab the husbo
I know man the first one wasn't weird just sad 🙁
Mary Lincoln had a truly sad life. Her mother died when Mary was quite young and her father promptly remarried. Then, after she married Lincoln, they lost three of their four sons. Robert, the oldest child, was afraid his widowed mother would spend all her money, leaving none for him to inherit, so he had her declared insane by doctors who had never met or examined her. She was sent to a mental hospital but later gained her release and never forgave Robert. She spent the last years of her life traveling in Europe, lonely and physically ill. This lady should have spent that time with her grandchildren, but she only met one of them. Robert's wife threatened to leave him if he brought her to live in their home. If you've ever seen pictures or visited Hildene, the Robert Todd Lincoln home in Vermont, know that it was purchased with money his mother left him. He never earned the money to buy it.
Lyndon Johnson was a jerk through and through. Melania does not belong on this list. She is an amazing First Lady. She has been treated like dirt from day one. Shame on media.
For sure
LBJ did not resign from office.
Eleanor Roosevelt Was The Most Amazing Woman In American History " She Was Always Doing Something For Our Country " The Rest Weren't As Great As She Was 🤔 Thanks Eleanor Roosevelt 😉
what about billary .......
Melania's portion comes up and I'm like
I don't care do you?
Lol!!!
Get a life 🙄
@@tomdececco2806 She was a model. Most all models these days have shown everything, including actresses. Apparently you don't see her as a person, only breasts. You could have said anything about our first lady and you come up with that. Apparently, they made a big impression on you or you wouldn't have even mentioned it.
@@harrykuheim6107 It's gross and petty to go after appearance just because you don't agree. Looks are subjective and you're showing how immature you are.
@@victoriablackwell1339 - just saying didn't see any other first ladies tits
There is nothing "weird" about any of these ladies. They were trying to do their best as role models for women.
I think it’s mean to say Ladybird was weird. She dressed like her husbands mistress that’s incredibly heartbreaking
And how was Julia Tyler bad? She was the first to use her status to her advantage. It’s very pro feminine to me
Julia Gardiner was a famous beauty from a stunningly rich and prominent New York Family, (Gardiner's Island), related to all the prominent Dutch, English and Huguenot families of New York.
Jackie used to go shopping with a allowance that Onassis gave her. She would buy A dozen of the same item in different colors and resale the items at a high end thrift store and pocket the cash. 🤣
How is Eleanor Roosevelt modeling and giving the money to charity weird? Doesn't make sense.
Where's Mary Todd Lincoln and Nancy Reagan?!?
World Weary Mary had a mental illness. That makes her weird?
Melania Trump is not weird for following a few people? She was a successful enough model and she really is the prettiest first lady.
Everyone is weird
I eat penis because I'm gay??
I am weird
moon glow Wouldn’t that make you a cannibal?
well that old saying you learn something new everyday sure is through here. I didn't realize that Jackie Kennedy's husband slept with her sister and that she married her sister's boyfriend after Jack died. Wow talk about love between sisters I thought my relationship was bad with mine
Sorry to see you wimped out Grunge and left out Killary.
Yea i was waiting..and mike obama too. Talk about weird
Wow, the sexism is strong in this video.
CDCanada this channel trashes men too
What made Pat weird??
Edit: After watching all of this, what makes any of these women weird.
Haha the weirdest thing about Pat is that she was married to Richard
Damn it sounds like lady bird did not say no, but he messed around on her anyway. Her husband was an under the table behind the Green door racist. I don't back up from saying that
00:25 “Their honeymoon in Mexico involved so much physical intimacy that when Lady Bird got back to the states the first thing she did was see a gynecologist, normally a routine examination before marriage, she neglected to make the appointment in a rush to the altar, but given her husbands notorious appetite for women the exam more or less made sure that she could even handle the future presidents constant advances, but no doctor could help her with her husbands wondering am eye.”
Weren’t Eleanor and FDR 2nd cousins?
5th cousins once removed.
So????? it's first cousins who shouldn't marry!
Anna Chen - I read Eleanor was a lesbian
Richard Nixon was cold. But he loved Pat with all his heart
Now, just why is Melania following Barack? Secret crush maybe? lol
This video is a SHAM. Not only is it filled with unsubstantiated silly gossip about the first ladies, it contains ABSOLUTELY NO FACTS. Shame on the person who composed it and posted it.
I firmly believe that weird is good ✌️
Beth Roesch weirdos unite
@Jabari Akhenamen how cool. I did not know that. Thank you for sharing the knowledge ✌️
@@coccinelle80 ✌️👍
@Targon of Assad Dahmer wasn't weird, he was crazy. Weird people don't kill people or animals. We're just fascinated by the crazies who do 😱🤣🤣✌️
@@bethroesch2156 Truuuue.
How does any of this make any of them weird?
Honestly, can you blame our First Lady for not using her Flotus account online much? She hasn't been treated the nicest by the public and she seems to be a very nice person herself, so that would be tough if you ask me. I personally think she is the best First Lady we have had since Jacqueline Kennedy. She is beautiful, a wonderful mother, seems to have a wonderful life of her own, and shows great restraint when faced with difficult situations, such as people leaving rude remarks about her past modeling career. In my opinion, they are just jealous that she is so beautiful.
I'm a little confused are you talking about Melania Trump?
So beautiful so strong she saved her children's that's why she married
Could you climb any further up MAGGOT backside? She's gold digging opportunistic trash. Period.
Please refer to a dictionary! I'm not even a Trump supporter BUT her following him on Twitter isn't weird nor trolling (and the photo shoot is ironic, not weird)!!!! Being voted "best of" isn't weird either, just because her husband was Nixon; HELLO opposites attract.
Are kidding you did not put crazy HRC in that video!
Jackie Kennedy plotted on her revenge 😂😂😂
There are many opinions about who was our greatest President, but I think it’s almost universally agreed that Eleanor Roosevelt was our greatest First Lady.
The last lady is like eighteen. No wonder she was all flighty.
Lincoln's wife better be on here that chick was apparently crazy af
Explain John Wayne
Take a few minutes out of your busy day and actually read about Mary Todd Lincoln. And read a few of the better-informed comments about her.
She was driven by grief and depression she lost 3 of her son's and her husband
@@ingoingmage9207 she sas crazy before that tho
The Joker of course it’s hard to diagnose people after they’re dead, but a lot historians think that she probably had some sort of bipolar disorder. so it wasn’t just her being “crazy” for the sake of being dramatic, she was mentally ill. which is probably why her son put her in a mental asylum in her later age.
I like Pat shoveling. Looks at it like what is this and then shovels a spoonful of dirt.
Pat Nixon - "Outstanding Homemaker" - bwahahahahahahah
Poorly constructed and biased.
Put no one on a pedestal
Besides Mary Todd Lincoln you forgot Hillary.
Pl
minxella12 yup
Um, this video is weird since it does not contain any uniquely weird information.
HEY!!!!
Why no mention of Obama’s husband Michelle? Is it because he’s black?
Because Michelle Obama is a woman she's not a man! You need to stop putting out fake B S like that! Just like former President Obama was the Anti-Christ. And no it's not the reason why hes not hes black! JUST STOP!!!!
@Adam Defibaugh Still it doesn't mean that Michelle Obama is a man she is a woman I know what's going on in this world but I do know that she is not a man so you're wrong dude!
@Adam Defibaugh Proof?
Its alright, I too have trouble saying the word 'Inquiry'.
I feel sorry for Pat Nixon, not because she was married to the former president but because the former president was so disliked. Richard Nixon wasn't particularly handsome or charming or witty. He was a very ordinary man and he took a lot of flack for not being a "Kennedy".
Eleanor Roosevelt wasn't weird. She was amazing. ❤
Big Mike is the weirdest for sure
I think their husbands were weird
James Buchanan had the original "first lady" because he was gay. True story
As everyone knows.
recovERed gamER So what? Stop being a homophobe.
lol the comments on here crack me up! Yes I know everyone already knew this, I'm a homophobe, and all presidents are gay.
I was hoping to see the gangsta sunglasses meme appear at the end of Jackie's entry
Jackie had an annouying, little girl whispery voice. Unpleasant to listen to.
My Ex husband used to say that she sounded like a Mentally Challenge person. Well,he said the other word that I despised he used the term Retarded Voice. I hate that R word.
Like most women of that time. Have you heard women from talk back then.
I liked the Jackie Kennedy's beautiful manners and feminine behavior (I wasn't alive then, but I've seen videos, interviews etc) but I don't understand why she was thought of as beautiful or intelligent. She wasn't pretty at all, very bland - that sort of inbred look that the extremely wealthy 'old money' families have. Plus, she spoke like she was a bit slow, like a 12 year old girl. She obviously had something about her because she married two powerful men. Very odd.
@@lastdays3148 retarded just means "slowed down". Words are just words. People who are now called "cognitively impaired" or "developmentally disabled" used to be called imbeciles, morons, idiots, etc. until someone said those words - which accurately described them, were mean, so then they said retarded - slowed down (like flame retardant slows down fire - does that offend you?) was "mean" and they came up with different words and on it goes. It's ridiculous to pretended that someone with a low IQ isn't retarded because they are. It doesn't make them bad or useless and I certainly don't advocate for their death before birth like most of those word nazis do, it's just an accurate description, like being called "bright" or "gifted" or "genius".
Rashone - she was fake as a fake $3 bill
Damn Lady Bird Johnson got pounded loose 😂😂🤣
It is said,Johnson had a Johnson.
Person who compiled this list doesn't like women apparently.
How does any of that make Pat Nixon weird?
It can also be said, that despite the circumstances, these ladies stood up for what they believe in. And did their best to give a voice to the causes they believe in. Melina Trump is an exception, but she has time to come around--hopefully soon. Who knows, she is probably reading and editing her husbands tweets. Which would explain the spelling mistakes.
These literally aren't weird. Some are woman sticks with husband even tho he cheats??? Weird! Woman is pretty??? How strange. Woman is strong and tries to get the attention she deserves??? That's super weird!
Edit: Now I'm sad and pissed off :(
