Her bland movie bombed so she wants to punch up her life for the sequel.

I imagine you have to be very diplomatic when married to an narcissist toddler in an adult body.

Maybe Donald has decided he can't really trust Don Jr. and wants Melania to run in 2028. That way he can stay in the White House.

I have always said America is too exist right now to elect a woman as President but maybe an exception can be made for a woman who would be so obviously taking orders from her husband.

You need to be a natural born US citizen.

We're about to see Trump issue an executive order proclaiming her to be natural-born citizen, and enough Republican states to say "Yup, that's good enough for us! After all, we already had one President from Kenya...."

That's it, no? Trump's committee of building resorts on top of Gaza's pieces should replace the UN and to drive home the point they send the unserious First Lady.

And another fuck you to the American people. Melania was not elected. She was not appointed and confirmed. She's a nobody in the eyes of our government. We Americans have a process for choosing people in our government and it's not supposed to be nepotism.

When the wife of President Donald Trump takes her seat in the president’s chair on Monday afternoon, it “will be the first time a first lady, or first gentleman for that matter, has ever presided over a Security Council meeting,” U.N. spokesman Stephane Dujarric told reporters.

And yes, it's absolute lunacy.

Ivanka Trump attended the UNGA and had meetings there but did not preside over it.

As for the significance of Melania Trump presiding over the Security Council meeting, Dujarric called it “a sign of the importance that the United States feels towards the Security Council and the subject.”

Well she stole Michelle Obama's speech and repeated it on an occasion.

I've fortunately not had the displeasure to listen to her. That said, I don't think limited proficiency in English is really a reason to critique an immigrant, nor should that be a problem at the UN where many attendees need translators anyway.

Her lack of english proficiency is plenty of reason to critique her piece of shit ghoul husband, though. Beyond the sheer hypocrisy, one would think an anti-immigrant bigot like him would have a problem fostering chain migration.

Again, there are plenty of of reasons to dislike and critique Melania. She has no business at the UN in the first place. Her dumbass bullying initiative was as hypocritical as it gets. IIRC, she wore a jacket that said something like "I don't care" to go look at kids in cages on the US-Mexico border.

Her limited English proficiency isn't the problem with any of that. That's just outright xenophobic in my opinion.

Edit: fixed a typo

It wasn't meant as a message from the council, just what to print on bombs as they announce special Melanie's bomb livery™ that all manufacturers have to buy now.

the first lady’s office said the meeting she will preside over will “emphasize education’s role in advancing tolerance and world peace.”

Advancing tolerance and world peace also goes hand to hand with getting rid of Trump and MAGA
