In my three years covering @FLOTUS at events, that was the worst booing she has received at a public event where she has given solo remarks.

(82,849 posts)I guess that's one way of putting it. It's a pretty mealy-mouthed way, to be sure, and works to let Trump off the hook (again) for all the hateful things he's said about Baltimore and its citizens.

(63,221 posts)"Be Best" - WTF? How about "Learn English!" She has to be the laziest, dumbest and most useless first lady in the history of this country. I wish that entire family would just disappear from the face of the earth.

(14,154 posts)There had to have been someone who suggested perhaps before she went public with her little contribution to her office, that she change it to "Be the Best" You know, the way we actually talk in this country. Even after it went public, she could have changed it. But its like the bubble she and her orange dotard live in will not allow them to be seconded guessed.....ever.
Be Best sounds like how a 3 year old would talk. It should be embarrasing to her to keep using it, but like her husband her arrogance dictates that everyone else is wrong, and She Right!

Or maybe that was the plan; gin up sympathy by having minority youth "attack" her?
In that case, poor planning, Youth Opiod Awareness event.

Trump's presidency has changed our country. In some ways for the worse. But as this shows, he can no longer rely upon other people to obey the norms he rejects.
Melania Trump does not have a right to pretend that she deserves respect.
Pachamama
(16,875 posts)If the monotonous tone of her voice doesn't put you to sleep, you can hear the insincerity in the way she reads off the written speech.
She left her jacket on because she couldn't wait to get out of there.
Watching her with Conan the Dog at the White House was very telling. She and her even worse half clearly don't like dogs. I predict that if she had to "interact" with any of the youth there in Baltimore at this event, her body language would be very much the same as it was next to Conan the Dog - disdain and distance.

That be best image hit me viscerally - instantly disgusted me with a resounding,... cmon, seriously?
McKim
(2,412 posts)It makes me so sad that under the Trump regime we have all stooped to this level of discourse.
The vehemence and hate that this regime has stirred up is so unseemly. Part of me is glad they are booed when they go out of their bubble, but another part regrets the anger, hate and nasty feelings that are encouraged by our conflicts.

When it comes to damaging people's well-being, threatening their online safety, and profiting from opioid abuse, this administration always strives to BE BEST.

(10,072 posts)She should own her profession and help others in similar situations. But no, she pretends she isn't a Slovenian sex worker and plagarises a true first lady's plans with first grade slogans, Be Best????
Who would of thought that when you willingly sleep with a wannabe facist dictator and actively promote his baby caging plans, that the people of the nation would Hate you too? Who would ever think it?
