She's not at the White House. She's not active. As far as I can tell she hasn't done shit.

(40,208 posts)She was at this lunch for military mothers. Then she disappeared herself again. She has only said something in front of people once or twice since January.
I think she just isn't interested in anything. She didn't want him to run for president. She had her life in NY and this is all an unwelcome disruption. I also think that although she likes all the trappings of her entitled life that she is genuinely repulsed by her husband. There is zero chemistry between them and the only time I have seen her smile is when she is at a minimum of 3 feet away from him.

Today, @FLOTUS hosted a Military Mother's Day Event in the East Room of the WH. It was an honor to stop by, say hello, & introduce Melania!

Of all the people connected to Trump to attack, she seems the least deserving.

Naturally we expect more, because most people in this position would love to make their mark.
But this first lady is completely ineffectual, and we're better off without her involvement. Just look at her progress toward stopping bullying. He's still at it - every day!
Took an active part in spreading or encourage lies about Obama for one. All persons associated with the maggot is deserving of criticism.

(14,918 posts)the election. At the time, he said Melania would produce her immigration documents and clear up any questions about whether she worked illegally when she first arrived from Slovenia. Instead, in a move that has become familiar, Donald had his attorney draft a letter averring that everything is hunky-dory. Speaking of bullshit, didn't Melania claim she would use her platform as First Lady to launch an anti-cyberbulling initiative? Haven't heard a peep out of her on that topic. Maybe someone should ask her if she thought Donald's threatening tweet to James Comey constituted cyberbullying, in her expert opinion.

(2,533 posts)That's what I mean. She did not mind using her position to sell her merchandise. No public service {which is common for a First Lady} seems to be going on. In fairness I will say that her husband pretty much made it impossible for her to talk about cyber bullying. She could choose something else, but nada.

(2,074 posts)I even heard it said on TV yesterday (I forget who said it). No one knows who's in charge in Washington right now. Trump is a child. He cannot govern.

(22,031 posts)After the brilliance of Michelle Obama, perhaps the position should be retired.
Besides, do you really want Melania Trump representing the people of the United States?

(54,349 posts)First of all, she knows the size of Michelle's shoes, and knows she'll never fill them.
Second, every day she spends far from the Donald is probably a blessing to her. Our country has survived a bachelor president, so if Melania prefers to keep her distance, it's not only her right, but a sign that she isn't an idiot.

(42,550 posts)She pops up randomly at various events--whenever she's summoned? I don't think you stay married to Donald Trump as long as she has by asserting your own will and independence.
lanlady
(7,134 posts)She stays out of the way and keeps her mouth shut. Her job is to smile and rock a dress. Melania plays her dutiful part in this family of criminal low-lifes who are genetically coded for con artistry.
We should also entertain the possibility that Melania is Trump's SVR handler - or one of several such handlers for him. The SVR and FSB like their KGB antecedent make extensive use of beautiful women from Eastern Europe to ensnare prominent Western businessmen and politicians. It's not far-fetched to think that the Russians recruited this Slovenian budding porn star and instructed her to hook up with Trump just as his casinos were failing and he needed lots and lots of dirty cash to keep him afloat.
That's my conspiracy theory and I'm sticking to it.
