“Melania made the decision, and it was the wrong one.
She should have gotten her beautiful self and Barron to the WH on day one.”

I don’t think so.
My son and his wife made the same decision,2 years ago, as Melania and the president did and never regretted it. It was the best decision for the child.
Me too
Agree. But can you imagine the hoops his SS will have to go through. More than a few of the homeless will want to go through a search. Guaranteed the msm will be on hand to interview the one crazy who doesn’t want touched by SS so will go without a meal. Headlines, “Barron is causing the homeless to starve!”
Remember the outrage from parents when they learned one of the grandsons was going to be in their preschool. It was over the top with hate.
Husband and I volunteered at our Interfaith shelter to serve food (our Church volunteers as do others). I noticed all different folks from all walks of life. I saw Veterans, average Joe workers and of course the homeless. I sat and talked with some of the folks that were like me, average Joe. They fell on hard times, medical bills, sick child, one parent had to stay home, loss of that income, then main breadwinner lost his job, then car problems. He said it was humiliating to have to come here for food. He’d never taken a dime from the government and worked all his life.
So, it was an eye opener to me. Yes there are people who scam to get benefits but there are those that have never taken a dime until a life changing event causes a train wreck financially.
Yes, they were.
Trump owns Mar-a-Lago so we’re not paying for that rental like we had to for Obama.
I agree. Even Trump's enemies in the media (NYT, WP) have not made this into an issue, and left her alone.
will = will not want to be searched
The school Trump & Melania chose has a 100% college rate. That impresses me.
Certainly, the nationwide Failure Factories that my tax money supports cannot even come close to that.
AMEN
I don’t think helping out at a soup kitchen is going to turn the kid into a SJW. :-)
My Dad told me that a Presbyterian (like he was) is just somebody who can't afford to be an Episcopalian! Just a joke, as he could have afforded it.
I have mixed feelings about that. Back in the dark ages when I was young, our "public service" consisted mostly of not getting arrested. The world has changed. When you look at private schools, especially the expensive ones, you are looking at kids who have grown up in a bubble. Most of them have two parents at home. At least one parent, and usually both, are working. The family income is high enough to pay a stiff tuition. They live in attractive neighborhoods surrounded by people much like themselves. Getting them out of the bubble is worthwhile. It is up to the parents and the teachers to connect the dots and explain the myriad ways that people wreck their lives. You can have a public service requirement without buying into left-wing victimology theory. A small example: we live on Capitol Hill, so my older daughter and her friends always racked up service hours doing support activities for the March for Life.
Nixon was a Quaker. Just sayin’
You sound like a good and decent man, your wife sounds like she’s thoughtful, as well.
How sad that you two couldn’t keep your marriage intact.
I liked your post...take care.

Melania has done other things as first lady. The media never reports on it.
Good thing you disagree with that post as I’m sure it was sarcasm.
Sounds like a great school.
Good grief. Would love to see your response, LOL.
