I find it very hard to watch this and keep a straight face.
Melania is being made a fool.
First off, who ever heard of a political rally a month after the candidate won?
Secondly, who opens a political rally with a reading of "The Lord's Prayer" amidst hooting and hollering for the hot new FLOTUS?
Thirdly, does no one on the Trump team know the USA doesn't have a national religion? If Trump's goal is to make "America Great Again", why not have Melania do something inclusive like leading those in attendance in reciting the Pledge of Allegiance?

I'm not opposed to The Lord's Prayer, but this just seems so odd. Why didn't she wait for the audience to quiet? Couldn't she have signaled that she was ready for silence? The Pledge of Allegiance would have been much more appropriate. If you're going to use a Christian prayer at a political event, other prayers should also have been included to be more inclusive. (After all, doesn't Trump claim to be the "President for ALL?")
Melaniea makes me very uncomfortable. She rarely smiles and always act as if she is tortured when appearing in public.. Michelle Obama didn't want to be First Lady either, but you would never know it. She was always smiling, always pleasant, always a LADY.

He's running for 2020. I see a man in the back holding a sign that says Blacks for Trump, 2020. They want to split the black vote. There is a lot of work to be done.
