President Donald Trumps White House residence where an increasingly isolated figure under siege conducts his late-night phone klatches and early morning tweetstorms is about to get a little less lonely.
With the school year over, first lady Melania Trump and the couples son Barron are expected to finally make their official move to Washington on June 14, according to people familiar with the planning.
The long-anticipated move Melania Trump is the first first lady in modern history to delay her arrival is expected to lend some degree of normalcy to a presidency defined by its abnormality in substance and style.
Her presence is not going to stop any investigations, but at a time when this particular presidency needs an air of stability, it might lend that, said Katherine Jellison, a history professor at Ohio University who specializes in first lady studies. The move helps to give the impression that the president is currently in a stable, solid marriage and that his home life is under control.
Melania Trumps parents, Victor and Amalija Knavs, are also expected to become more familiar figures around the White House, helping care for Barron, though they dont plan to relocate full time to Washington as Michelle Obamas mother Marian Robinson did. The hyper-involved Slovenian grandparents currently live with their daughter and grandson in the Trump Tower penthouse and spend most weekends with the Trumps at Mar-a-Lago, or at the Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, New Jersey.
Over the past few weeks, the often stiff-in-her-role first lady has been spending more time in the White House, building out her East Wing staff, preparing the residence for the family, and slowly increasing her schedule of public events. On Sunday evening, she attended a fundraising gala for Fords Theatre.....

What a snarky piece about our elegant First Lady. Politico is still pining for Hillary, the crooked granny.
It's Politico, doing what they always do.
Thanks! I was wondering when they were moving in. Although the article doesn’t seem to report it, Melania has been great so far in her responsibility as first lady.:-)

I am embarrassed to admit I spent two years at that university.
Whatever.
Look at Trump.
Look at yourself....
Now, look at Trump again.
You will never be Trump.
Trump will show up in style, with a beautiful woman.
You will merely attend....

1) he present administration under Donald Trump IS NOT unstable, it is the whacko left under Schumer and Pelosi that is creating obstruction to make the Trump administration LOOK unstable, with the help of a propagandist media.
2)Congress is besmurched with investigations that have NO evidence against Donald Trump or his campaign, in the hiope that a procecution of Hillery Clinton might ve avoided. Comey, a former biard member of the Clinton Foundation is still running interference for Clinton and Obama.
3) Melania Trump and Barron Trump will undoubtedly enhance the White House environment, but it will have nothing to do with making the administration appear more stable, simply because the MSM and the left seek to continually portray President Trump as unstable. In fact the administration is just about the only branch of government that is stable. The Supreme Court must listen to the political musings of the leftist geriatric Ruth Ginsberg, creating a horrible appearance of partiality. Congress is chasing rabbits down various bunny holes instead of advancing a legislative agenda., both unstable.
No, the PU$$Y factoooor in the realm of academe seeks only to place stability at the hands of the 1st lady, as if President Trump is some kind of animal roaming the WHite House day and night with no place to call a port in a storm, whichi is beyond ludicrous.
Truth be told America appreciates Donald Trump and his agenda, and they will not forget the destruction wrought by the left come November of 2018.Iy is in that election cycle that Melania Trumnp will truely make a difference, not by just enhancing the domestic scene of the White House. America loves her, and also is extremely attracted to the shy , tall son of the president, even as the MSM seeks to denigrate the young man.
In short the Ohio professor seeks to have a book deal in order to ride Melania’s popularity to the bank.
Arnie is a leftard faggot ...
Anna Harrison (Widowed before she could move in...)
Martha Washington - The White House wasn’t even BUILT, yet!
Jackie Kennedy kept an apartment on Pennsylvania Avenue - she spent her time between Europe and her own apartment, other than for public events she was expected to hostess.
Bess Truman spent most of her time in Missouri.
So, FU Enemy Media. Do your damn homework!
I gather she can't get a real job?
Great birthday present for POTUS, as 6/14 is his b-day.
POS left-wing scumbag writer...
...where an increasingly isolated figure under siege conducts his late-night phone klatches and early morning tweetstorms...
Wow. No bias there. Trump uses Twitter like a WMD.
The propaganda and wishful thinking of the Left just drips from every sentence.
Why do they act like this? Because they know what the stakes are: their corrupt and entitled existence.
We must battle them on every front, and repudiate the Tokyo Rose's who are on a constant campaign to demoralize President Trump's supporters.
But Trump supporters also know what the stakes are, and we're going to keep moving in the right direction. Always. We will fight as long as the President fights, and then we will will continue fighting once he has left the stage!
Drain The Swamp!
Yes, quite the snarky smear job.
Too bad....Melania’s grace and class, in her FLOTUS capacity, has run circles around ANYTHING Moochelle EVER did/said/was. All, before Melania has even officially moved in to the WH.
I’m not even exaggerating. I’m a very early riser. It’s disconcerting to me if Trump hasn’t tweeted anything by 4:30am. #MAGA
“an increasingly isolated figure under siege”
uh, i quit reading right after that.
btw, politico is banned at FR
What do these people not understand about letting a child finish a school year?
I hate liberals with a deep purple passion. Every. Damn. One. Of. Them.
The word is “dignity”. Something liberals entirely lack. They should also look up the word “poise” in a good dictionary. Another concept foreign to the left.
