Hence why she's not. Her husband is. Being 'First Lady' is literally just a title that means 'wife of president', and has no political relevance or power whatsoever.

First Lady means a lot though. Look at what every First Lady did since Nancy Reagan.

Uhhh, how much do you follow American politics?
[QUOTE=ROFLBURGER;50741871]First Lady means a lot though. Look at what every First Lady did since Nancy Reagan.[/QUOTE]They aren't a part of the political process. If a single man/woman decides to run for president, they're not going to have any issues with not having a 'first lady/man' to fill that supposed role. First ladies take far more of a 'celebrity'-esque role than they do a politically important one.
It's a silly type of low-blow to move onto insulting the dude's wife for not being politically involved.
this just in
someone's speech was similar to another person's speech considering they touched pretty much the exact same subjects. in other news, everyone is actually a copycat of hitler.

It was more than similar. It was copying the exact words from another speech by a previous woman in the same position. How do you honestly not understand that? Are you missing it on purpose or something?

I mean the fact she couldn't even be bothered to write her own speech, much less review it like she should have ahead of time to where this issue would have been noticed sooner, just proves the lack of effort she put into this and lack of skill at preparing/delivering speeches.[/QUOTE]
Did anyone really expect a bimbo trophy wife who more than likely married Trump for his wealth to be talented enough to write a political speech for herself, let alone an outstanding one :v:

You must really be good with women if you're willing to openly call Melania a bimbo trophy wife, almost like she doesn't have a personality or a family that respects her

Sorry if she reads this and her feelings get hurt.
She's still a trophy wife.
as much as I dislike trump she probably didnt write this speech.
and also, the First Lady is more of a celebrity in terms of power, right? I dont think melania trump is going to be a active first lady like Michelle or anything, they have no official power so its not the end of the world for the United States.

That's the whole point though, she claimed she wrote the whole speech with very little help.

No, I absolutely understand it, but everyone needs to stop treating it like it's something new. People have copied each other for centuries, this is old news.

Theft and murder have been around for centuries, that doesn't mean it's okay.
she rick rolled everybody at the end as well.
It has to be a troll.
It was a mistake from a speech writer:

What about the rickroll, that was always the more interesting part of this to me

Apples and oranges, try again.

Yeah, about what I expected out of all of this - a speechwriter fucking up. Actually funnier, since the speechwriter admits that Melania said she always liked Michelle Obama.
Still really doesn't explain the rickroll though

it's a minor gaffe, it got a minor laugh out of me. sure some people will blow it out of proportion, but you need to stop treating it like it's something new. people have blown things out of proportion for centuries, that's old news.
