Oh this is funny. The most reluctant First Lady ever finally showed up at the White House yesterday for a meeting and dinner with state governors. Today? Melania was back on a plane to Trump Tower. She couldn’t stand to be there for even 24 hours. She claimed she would be at the White House this term but so far that is not the case. Maybe DOGE should look into the cost of these flights?

You can't blame her. Nobody else wants to be around trump, either.

Perhaps she'll have to start going by car if the plane accidents continue.

I have never held this against her. I have never understood in politics why a woman should be forced to do something she doesn't want to do just because she's the president's wife. She's as free as the rest of us to decide for herself how she wants to live her life, and whether or not to participate in politics. Amazing that liberals, who are so much into women's lib and rights to choose their own courses and destinies, would find fault with her for choosing her own path and not being forced by a man, or a system, to pigeonhole her into something she doesn't want to be pigeonholed into. She likes the comforts of her own home. She enjoys her privacy. She doesn't want to be in the limelight 24/7 and under scrutiny. Maybe she's not as into the balls and galas and fundraising. Is that wrong? Not hardly. Maybe she simply wants to live her life her way, and that's okay. As for the cost of flights, doesn't anyone remember back to the lavish vacations and trips Michelle Obama used to take? What was the cost of that, and why didn't anyone ask questions then?

@NJChicaa Not YOUR side. OUR side did. But not YOUR side. Therefore, if you weren't concerned about the costs then, you have no business being concerned about the costs all of a sudden now. That, my friend, is called HYPOCRISY.
