Melania is lovely (Leopard Jacket! ) as always. And I can’t get enough of that accent. She could read an eye chart and I’d listen.

Damn if our First Lady doesn’t have tremendous master vocabulary on her non native language! My son is making me learn the same language he picked for school and it’s not easy by far. Hats off to the glorious Melania. Trump knew you were one in a million. Class act. ❤️
