For two hours, President Donald Trump got his "miracle" — the pandemic did just disappear — in the false reality of the Republican National Convention. Then the first lady strode into her newly renovated White House Rose Garden.
Melania Trump immediately shared the kind of heartfelt empathy for victims of the worst health crisis in a century that her husband has rarely offered and which the personality pageant that is nominating him for a second term largely ignored. She offered her gratitude to first responders, nurses and doctors who have cared for Americans sickened by the virus , and attested to her husband's concern for all those afflicted by it. She also attempted to humanize the President at a time when he is facing a huge deficit with female voters.
"My deepest sympathy goes out to everyone who has lost a loved one and my prayers are with those who are ill or suffering. I know many people are anxious and some feel helpless. I want you to know you are not alone," she said.
The direct reference to the virus was notable since earlier speakers, if they mentioned the virus at all, portrayed it as a vanquished threat.

    1. D M – Yep. That is why trump cheated on her, and they burned her in effigy in her hometown. Say more smart things.

    2. She can’t blink! She even has to sleep with one eye open that’s how scared she is! #FREEMELANIAAAA

    1. @Dixie Normous “we are not mentioned nor was there any comparison”
      Way to show your skills in the english language. 😉

    2. @Andreas karlsson ohhh nooo!! I made a predictive text error!! Forgot the fact that you were taken to task over that stupid accusation. Bless you grammar Nazi.

    3. @Dixie Normous Yeah, lets ignore the rest of the comment and cry over your obvious grammar error being pointed out. xD

    1. @David Evans
      Somebody’s gotta question CNN’s narrative… People like you sure as well won’t.
      LMAO.

    2. @Terri Peirce, 😜 it’s okay.
      I’m not going to argue with stupid.
      And you folks say I have TDS?
      Looks like the sh*t goes both ways.

    1. @Ellen C Joe Biden’s taxes are going to affect 80% of Americans. The press secretary was correct. You gave me a video with 100 views by somebody promoting Bernie Sanders. I gave you an article by a legitimate money magazine which confirms 80% of Americans are going to be taxed. They are saying different things so you’re going to have to decide who you want to believe. Both sides agree that the biggest target will be the earners making more than $400,000 but you need to read the fine print on the document I sent you to see why 80% of Americans will be affected. And why the press secretary did not lie.

    2. @Ellen C if the Money Magazine is unclear take the article to your accountant and get their take on your specific situation. But 80% of Americans are going to be affected by Joe Biden’s taxes. You might be one of the lucky 20%.

    3. @Sparky Sparky I know what an accountant will say…if Biden is saying that the average taxpayer will get a .2% to.6% “indirect” tax than that’s where you are getting 80%. They are trying to scare you… that’s all Trump knows how to do…fear mongering. He told Carl Bernstein…fear equals power. He started his first campaign screaming the Mexicans coming across the border were all murderers, rapists, etc. The there was the Muslim ban….where he wanted to ban Muslims till he could figure out what the hell was going on…Then he won the election…normal person would be happy…but he still thought there would be fraud so he established the Election Fraud Committee headed by Chris Kobach…they found nothing. The media is out to get him ..so don’t trust them…
      Oh my gosh, they are coming for your guns…yet there are many Democrat gun owners. Believe no one but him…this way you don’t believe the truth when you hear it. Remember the caravans at the midterms that disappeared the day after the election. Now it’s the mail ballots that are going to be rigged without any evidence.
      He leads by fear… don’t be weak and buy into it…He controls you with it!

    4. @Ellen C that indirect tax is going to affect 80%. You don’t care because you’re probably in the lower tax bracket. Others do care and need to understand how it works. My point was proving that RNC didn’t lie about the 80%. That’s my point. Democrats were saying he was lying and he never was. It was the Democrats who were lying.

    5. @Ellen C and the Democrats allow BLM violence which has done more harm that anything’s come could ever have done. Look at the people killed and the buildings destroyed to BLM violence. Even Don Lemon is saying the Democrat polls are showing how frustrated and angry Democrats citizens are becoming because of what is happening in their own cities and they don’t blame Trump, they blame democrats for allowing this from the beginning. Watch would Don Lemon is saying. Now 6 Democrat Minnesota Mayors have endorsed Trump. Do you think they would have done that if their citizens weren’t behind them?

    1. Look who skipped the RNC Trump-fest shamelessly held at the WH with no masks or social distancing: GW BUSH and family, the Cheney family, the McCain family, Collin Powell, Senators Alexander, Murkowski, Rubio, Romney, Cruz, Grassley, Collins, Blunt, Roberts, former Speaker Boehner, Jeff Flake, Paul Ryan, Governors Sununu, Kasich, Whitman, former defense secretary Cohen, etc.

    2. @BookGirl NYS you could have just said “the swamp things.” Trump didn’t need them in 2016, and he doesn’t need them now. Nice try.

    1. U struggle with real life too. I bet your 10k in debt and have 3 kids with a divorced life

    1. @America’s Favorite Brazilian NO one is questioning her style. It is usually impeccable. BUT when your husband is constantly being compared to dictators, then wearing a military green dress (no matter how expensive or tailored it is) is kinda hitting the mark.

      This person made a pretty funny joke. It IS very carmen sandiegoesque. Why the need to be mean people?

    2. Get a job Tim baiko then you might not have to go out every night looting to clothe your crack head girl friend !

    1. @Paul D I spelled it correctly. I don’t consider anything about tRump as proper. I don’t capitalize his name and never will.

    2. @Dorien ….they would have died under ANYBODY’S WATCH!!! TAKE SOME RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR OWN LIFE INSTEAD OF LOOKING FOR THE “FREE RIDE!~”

    1. I’m always surprised at the amount of American men who marry untouched 18 years old with intact hymens.

    2. Paul D I hate the pandemic. I’m supposed to be in America to help friends celebrate their wedding but that’s obviously not happening. What I “get” is you have a despicable human being for a president who happens to also be a criminal and I hope for America’s and the world’s sake that only lasts another few months. By the way, what is it about so many Americans that when someone has a differing view it’s assumed they hate America? I sure don’t “get” that.

    3. @Down Under Take a Breath.. We don’t think you Hate America. Some of us that appreciate the job Trump has done. Don’t watch the talking heads in media.. Your right, theirs allot of hate going on.!! I personally look at things in a pragmatic way not emotional. Fact is everyone I know has seen quality of life get better.! Lol, I live in a Democrat State.. I’ve come to realize all the regulations,desitions,policies that have a negative effect are States issues. We’re litterly under Dictatorship!! From the Governor, an they lie saying it’s Trump.. When they give ‘Orders’.!! Just a point of view.

    1. @Ryan Johnson Touche, my friend. And, thank you. I’ll leave it there so others can learn from my sad mistake!

  1. She comes off like the parents of bullies want everyone to check their kids, when the instigator is their own child

  2. “Judge somebody by the content of their character and not the color of their skin.” – Martin Luther King Junior

    1. aspiring yaoi translator Just because you agree with some things someone says does not mean you have to agree with all

      Democratic socialism will just make us all poor. Well, except the politicians

    2. Terri Peirce I’m not sure if you are aware but many people’s livelihoods have been replaced by computers. There isn’t always someone willing to take in a middle age person and give them a new career- and are considered over qualified and not hired for many lower paying jobs- what then?

    3. @Terri Peirce Only for the corporations and super wealthy–why don’t ya’ll have a problem with that? Corporate welfare!

  3. Almost 6 months till now we finally hear condolences and empathy from this Administration… Silence from Trump and his cohorts, disgusting deplorables…

    1. @Thanos You really are a complete ignorant. In spite of what happened to you 4 years ago, You can’t seem to realize what is coming to you again and why. Enjoy the next four years moron.

    1. Spoken like a true bigot. You belong in the Democratic party — home of fighting to defend slavery, founders of the KKK, creators of Jim Crow laws, zealous segregationists, filibusterers of the Civil Rights Act. Your bigoted comment fits in perfectly with CNN and the DNC’s unspoken racist ideology.

    2. Nobody has time to hate her actually but can’t stand the lying and deceiving to The People while living in The People’s house.
