Melania Trump and her family have been savaged by the press in this country for about 2 years straight now. Could she have imagined this being the case? Probably not after seeing how the press swooned over the Obama's and treated the first family with kid gloves (as they should have). She has seen no kid gloves from them ever.
If she were the wife of a democrat she would be heralded as the second coming of Jackie O. and we all know it. She is beautiful and elegant and also very smart, successful and confident. She speaks 5 languages, has run successful enterprises and still has to take crap from journalist who likely barely made it through college.

She has seen her son ridiculed in the press, her husbands head (in effigy) cut off, his murder simulated in plays and videos ad nasseum. She has been attacked for wearing the wrong shoes boarding AF1 and gets picked at for wearing expensive clothes which, by the way, she paid for herself, no tax collars involved. We live in a country full of petty people that launch petty attacks because they are, petty. Some of the other petty people just lap it up like kittens at the bowl of milk.

Cpl Jeff N. It is sad that families get caught up in the mess. I hated seeing the Obama Family, Bush Family, Clinton Family, etc. trashed through their tenure and it continues today. Dealing with Monkey pictures, Obama assassination in a play, etc. It's all very sad indeed.

She has been in a far different spotlight for much of her life. But she is handling herself now with amazing poise and grace. She is steadily becoming one of our most valuable First Ladies.

The POTUS and FLOTUS have shown far more class and dignity than the Obamas ever did. I think this is because both of them have moved in the rarified air of the upper class for a long time. They don't feel lower than the people they meet, they feel equal to the world leaders. Things like President Trump eating with the troops in S. Korea rather than at a fancy restaurant just go to show his understanding of the "little people". I don't agree with some of what he does but he has shown compassion that Obama lacked.
