First lady Melania Trump's "Be Best" initiative falls short of goals at its 2nd-year mark https://cnn.it/2yAL9HH

---------------------------------------------------------
No surprise there because she's the worst.

[FoxNewsSucks]

1. There were goals?

[CaptYossarian]

2. What goals?

Is this current sham deep in red ink?

[Newest Reality]

3. Yup.

Be Vague!

Be Nondescript!

Be Abstract!

Be Bestest!

That's what it amounts to. Not to mention the allusion to being competitive rather than cooperative. Let's see now, if everybody is being best? Better yet, let's refer to Dunning-Kruger on the assumption of being best when you are not.

4. Most useless first lady ever.

[NoMoreRepugs]

5. I so want that woman out of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

[ProfessorGAC]

6. Yes, By 99.99%

IOW, they achieved nothing.

[Wellstone ruled]

9. With her Divorce Settelment,

10. She had to start at home

Otherwise it was a pointless waste of time and resources

[BigmanPigman]

11. Just like "infrastructure week".

I think we have been having that "week" for a couple of years now.

Be Best and Fuck Off, Mel!

[Ohiogal]

12. I forgot all about her...

She’s still around being worthless?

[greatauntoftriplets]

13. #bepointlessanduninvolved

[abqtommy]

14. Actually the tRUMP "be best at screwing everything up" initiative has exceeded their goal...

[Initech]

15. You can't really launch a campaign against online bullying...

When you're married to the biggest online bully on the planet!

[muriel_volestrangler]

16. Of course; her shitbag husband is the biggest internet bully there is

so it was inevitable that "overall online safety" and "social media well-being" would get worse, with the president actively working against them, and setting an example for internet trolls around the world.

In remarks at "Be Best's" first anniversary, Trump said she had appointed a "Be Best" ambassador from US Agency for International Development, and in June she added more than 20 additional "Be Best" ambassadors from various government agencies. However, her office would not publicly identify the names and positions of these ambassadors.

Ah, those old double secret ambassadors that no-one is to know about? I can't possibly think how that could have failed.

One of the components of the first lady's first anniversary speech was the announcement of a second solo international trip, which had been set for the fall to a location that was never disclosed. However, the trip never materialized, nor did details of a foreign destination. Throughout the year, when asked, sources confirmed the trip was being postponed but a reason was never given.

Other First Ladies never had a problem going abroad. Hell, the Trump klan is going overseas constantly - but only for business deals. Maybe the problem was that in other countries, if an ambassador (you know, the real kind, who are allowed to be publicly identified) brought up a possible visit, the reaction was probably along the lines of:

"Who? Oh yeah, he does have a third wife, doesn't he - that's who he was cheating on with the porn star he paid hush money to, wasn't it? Or was that how he cheated on #2? Dunno, why would she want to come here? It's not as if she's ever appointed anyone to explain what she wants to do, is it? She did? But you're not allowed to tell us who they are. Hah, yes, good one. Oh my god, you're serious. Have you explained to her what 'ambassador' means? It really doesn't mean 'secret agent'."

But - lo! I have found out what language the "Be Best" initiative is grammatically correct in! It's Lowland Scots:

The Pudden

A haggis an a thistle-shank, began a disputation,
On fa'd be best ambassador, tae serve the Scottish nation
The haggis wisna blate tae spik —
(the belly o a sheep, a win' — bag cornucopia, sets weel, yell min', wi,,neep)

"I am a cosmopolitan; a culinery pearl
Far wad Burns, withooten me? I sud be made an Earl!"

17. There were goals?

Where is she, by the way?

[Totally Tunsie]

18. And here, all this time I thought "Be Best" was just a sham

initiative formed to keep the sexpot out of donnie's hair and make it look like she should could be an ass-et to the American people.

Who knew she had real aspirations and goals???
Sure fooled me!
