'What if Trump killed her?' Yashar Ali dumbfounded by the 'Where's Melania?' conspiracies

If you do a simple search for “Melania Trump” Saturday night, the first result is this, from The Telegraph:

Melania Trump will not join her husband at the Camp David presidential retreat this weekend, extending to 22 days the time since she last appeared in public. https://t.co/91XyaKPGWt

In case you missed it, the first lady’s whereabouts have been in question all week on Twitter, to the point where she actually tweeted this Wednesday:

I see the media is working overtime speculating where I am & what I'm doing. Rest assured, I'm here at the @WhiteHouse w my family, feeling great, & working hard on behalf of children & the American people!

Cuz conspiracy theories feel so good. MSM makes the mistake believing it’s just on the fringe. Increasingly, it’s far more mainstream, potent and influential. And it’s a huge problem. https://t.co/5Vkygommtu

Melania Trump if alive, has abdicated her position as First Lady of the U.S.
there is no OTHER explanation.
There is no way a person in her role would continue to ignore public requests as to her welfare and status, unless she is dead, or abdicated her position, filed divorce.

Sorry, but after 3 weeks of no info on @flotus, other than a fraudulent tweet from the #OrangeClown, we are left to develop our own theories.
Here's mine:
The trip to Walter Reed was the result of a suicide attempt & she is now heavily medicated against her will.#WhereIsMelania

100% — wonder why we haven’t seen her in 3 weeks. Google bruised face and tell me how long it takes for that to heal… #flotus @FLOTUS
