The First Lady spoke with 'Fox & Friends' host Ainsley Earhardt in a segment that was filmed on Thursday during the annual Congressional picnic, and revealed that she could not be happier just two weeks after moving into the White House with son Barron.

'We are enjoying it very much,' Melania said of her time thus far at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

She looks frightened when I see her. Wonder if she’s uncomfortable in settings like this. She stands stiff and still like a soldier. Maybe time will make her more at ease. Sure am proud of her though!

You’re right. Nancy Reagan raised the money for her china from the private sector... at least that’s how I remember it.

“Hitlery probably asked for $500,000.00 in donations, paid $10,000.00 for the china and pocketed $490,000.00.”

And then took all the china with her when she and Bubba moved out of the White House. “Oh, we thought that was a personal gift.”

I doubt a former model is uncomfortable in front of a camera...She, through her husband’s business travels and interests, has been in similar places...It’s probably just the way she is...Straight, tall, proud, beautiful...

That’s right. What a vile witch she is.

The Obama’s probably have some kind of pottery from Kenya in their new place.

Melania probably has a million dollar set of China in a closet somewhere. She’ll dust it off and say, “maybe I’ll donate this old stuff”. Hahaha

Hillary re-stocked all the embassies with high end crystal ware. Of course the company that did it was a friend of hers.

She has this beauty combined with a seriousness that reminds me of the great Sophia Loren. She reminds me a lot of that great lady.

The stinking Obungholes hated the White Hut. They did not appreciate it in the least. They were pure ghetto trash.

I see poise, the training of a top model in good posture and bearing, and someone completely at ease in her new role.

I can’t get over her wardrobe....there has never been an occupant of the WH, male or female, that is more stunningly attired.

When I feed the animals, I can go about it pretty quietly and confidently and everyone knows the routine and the menu. If a stranger were to walk up and ask me what I feed the animals and why, I wouldn’t be so confident, because instead of just doing, I now have to verbalize, including carefully choosing words. Public speaking is a learned skill.

Yes. And it is EVERY time she appears in public. Every time.

Of course, she was a model, so you'd expect she'd photograph well, but her clothes seem to be the absolutely perfect choice, every single time.

Her style is elegant, understated most of the time, but not all the time. She seems very aware of her role in representing all of us, and she wants to do it in the best possible way.
