Melania Trump has joined the ranks of weaponized First Lady, and it may be just what the country needs.
Amidst the perceived chaos occurring on a regular basis at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue due to leaks, the undermining of the president’s agenda, and general bad behavior, Melania Trump has emerged as an effective counter-force.
Other presidents have had them: Hillary Clinton was Bill’s fiery rear guard and Nancy Reagan was the ultimate protector of her husband, Ronald Reagan. Now, it is Donald Trump who benefits from his closest adviser, Melania.
On Tuesday, in an extraordinary move, she took a flamethrower to Deputy National Security Advisor Mira Ricardel, declaring in a statement, “It is the position of the Office of the First Lady that she no longer deserves the honor of serving in this White House.”

Bravo to our First Lady.
Smart, beautiful, and she now resides in a place where you better know how to swing a bat.
She does.
Melania only speaks 5 languages, was a top model and businesswoman and is married to the President who is one of the wealthiest entrepreneurs and probably the best Project Manager on the planet. Not even a magazine cover.
According to a high ranking government friend in DC, the politics inside the administration are a real snotfest.
She Is head and shoulders above Mooch, Kankles and the rest of the Democrat autobots that are in the House and Senate. And that also includes the newest lady in drag...Beto O'Rourke.
She got out of it because of the behavior of many of the people in it.
Knowing who Melania has had to deal with, the clowns in Washington are childs' play for her.
John Bolton should have been consulted on this.
Yes, but Im curious just how much would this be different from previous Administrations. I would prefer to concentrate on how this Administration is benefiting the country.
Just one small success story real quick. My elderly father has dementia and it’s getting to the point that to keep him in his home we need move closer. Because of the economy, thanks to Trump, we are able to sell our home at a profit! and move back to help care for dad and keep him out of a nursing facility. Under Obama and even Bush, we LOST money on real estate and had a company close down a plant on us. Under Trump, my husbands company can’t keep enough people employed, they are snowed under and our real estate market is very healthy. :)
Good point.
I like Bolton, but he is far from infallible.
I read somewhere that he was, and he was against the firing.
Still, it’s ultimately not his call
The woman was a royal b@$#h and talked down to staff. The Trumps won’t put up with that PERIOD. I like John Bolton but he needs to stay far away from this.
Melania does not have a reputation as a diva but she is a fierce defender of her husband.
That was Bolton’s person, and she mixed it up with Kelly, so the fake news reports. Now the Melania has spoken, it adds truth to the rumor.
We never get the real story.
Don’t trust the media.
I feel your challenge and know exactly what you are dealing with concerning your Father. We are dealing with the exact same thing right now ourselves with my Father. It takes a huge sacrifice of self to take care of Dad right and I commend you for your patience and dedication.
It can be rough at times but I believe it is the righteous thing to do. Far too many just give up because it cramps their lifestyle and self interests. Personally I cannot forget what my Father has done for me and I owe it to him to try as long as possible.
Good on you... :)

Melania has the heart of a lioness, and the mind of a thinker. I am grateful for the Flotus, and what she has had to endured is a national disgrace!
“Knowing who Melania has had to deal with, the clowns in Washington are childs’ play for her.”
Maybe she was one of those clowns, or somewhere in between.
Regardless, I admire Melania.
Bolton WAS in on it before he left on that trip with VP Pence. His position was to oppose FLOTUS and stand up for the trouble maker/leaker FLOTUS was attempting to keep under control. FLOTUS finally decided the only answer was to show Ringaletto, er whutzername, the door.
>> I’m curious just how much would this be different from previous Administrations.
Agreed. From a family member who was Secret Service - now long retired. When asked if the Hillabeast was a loose cannon when it came to her temper, and Algore was insulting to his protectors, he said nothing, but the LOOK he gave us said everything.
He was. He demurred, opposing efforts to cast out Mira.
Bolton was emasculated. He got to keep the mustache.
