A year after launching her first major initiative, Melania Trump unveiled plans Tuesday to make her Be Best childrens program even best-er.
New steps in the first ladys second-year push include broadening the programs focus on drug abuse and social media use, along with her second international trip to promote its goals. She withheld the destination, however, saying the details are still coming together.
She said she has spent the time since listening to and learning from parents, medical professionals, teachers, leaders in the fields of technology and social media and many others, and declared that she is ready for more of that give and take ... the first lady said many children have written her to express concerns about drug abuse, online safety and bullying.
President Donald Trump watched from a front-row seat. He did not speak. Guests included Cabinet secretaries who support the initiative, White House officials, representatives of social media companies and others.

(6,212 posts)this is meaningless. I can't believe she has the audacity to say anything about bullying and not know how hypocritical she is being. In my mind she's as fake as her boobs.

how she chose the slogan "Be Best" - it celebrates English Language Learners as they sometimes leave words out... also, she is serving the worst president in modern times, so "Be Best" is a very high standard. It's good to set standards high!
