First Lady Melania reads to hospitalized children

[Hermit For Peace]

And she left a box of Dr. Seuss books for them to read. How cool is that? Good to know that somebody in that family has some compassion.

While I think Trump is an absolute joke of a President and of a human being for that matter, I'm more open to giving Melania a chance after seeing her read to the children. We'll see how it goes....

Is it gold digger, or trophy wife?

Two can play that game.

The answer to both is "yes". That's frequently how it works.

The point of the thread is that Melania is doing charity work. And I commend her for it.

Doesn't matter what label people want to place on her.

No one would care if this headline was about Laura Bush, Barbara Bush, or Michelle Obama because we expect first lady's to do stuff like this.

Who cares what people "expect"? First Lady is not a public office. Melania, Laura, Michelle etc. are private citizens like you and me. Assigning certain duties based on who they're married to strikes me as a creepy monarchical relic tbh.

I don't know and don't care why Melania is doing this, but still, good for her.

Let her actually use the office of FLOTUS for something cogent and worthwhile, then we'll talk.

I for one am simply happy she was able to read the book.

Perhaps he actually knows more than you? Seeing as there is a ceremonial office of the first lady that has its own staff and budget.
