I couldn't find this being reported on any mainstream media but I've seen it widely reported on a variety of other sites.

The Israeli FLOTUS is elderly and uses oxygen. She told our FLOTUS that she'd do her best but she probably would have to walk very slowly. Melania took her hand and said they'd walk at any pace necessary.

This is your good news of the day, perhaps the week. Don't look for it on our crooked media.

You have to be a real cretin to downvote a story like this. Not surprising that they're up and doing the only thing they know how to do.

Melania is the total package: intelligence, beauty, style, and grace.

quote:

Nechama whispered to Melania that she will do her best to catch up with the walking pace, but she might be a bit slower because of her medical condition which requires her to use an oxygen tank. Melania took her hand, looked at her and said: “We’ll walk at any pace you choose”.

And so they walked, slowly, gracefully and proudly, hand in hand.

That, is the moment I choose to cherish. That silent gesture has neither any political significance nor any colorful tone to it, but it is everything.

It is the hope we yearn for when we speak of peace;
It is the kindness we wish to protect when we speak of defeating terror;
It is the dignity we want to teach when we speak of stopping hate;
It is the friendship we pray for when we speak of our unbreakable bond;

In other words, this gesture encompasses everything that is good, kind and human.”

True - but this is certainly a non-event on the Political Board. This is nothing more than a person not acting like an arse. Nobody would have done anything differently - not Michelle, not even Hillary Rodham Clinton.

There is no praise to be had here - other than to highlight unremarkable normalcy.

It completely IS an event. How is it an event to pick on Barron, or pick on whether or not POTUS and FLOTUS hold hands, or whatever other nonsense seems to be posted regularly?

It is only a nonevent to Trump and Melania detractors.

No. It isn't.

She didn't ditch an old lady on oxygen. Let's get her sainted immediately.

Is your opinion that walking the same pace as an old lady is going "above and beyond" what a normal person would do in that situation?

Considering what we've seen from that family so far, it is very unusual. Not for most people, but it is for the Trumps.

If the MSM can run segments on wether or not Trump and the First Lady of Poland shook hands, or if a bust of MLK was removed from the Oval Office, why not this?
Is it a puff piece? Yes
Is it a nice change of pace from the board and news in general? Yes

I am far from a Trump/Melania detractor.

I agree that the MSM try to make the Trumps look like monsters for trivial bullshite. If you couch this in the realm of = "see, they are really just normal people" then you have a point.

But to highlight it as a praiseworthy event - all on its own - is quite a stretch.

It is sad we have sunk so far.

Because it's boring, not a story, and no one gives a shite. Breaking news First Lady is not an a-hole.

that other recent First Lady would have surely mocked and humiliated this old woman, but this one is different.

Obama derangement syndrome is back, baby!
