The Pope asked Melania what she gives Trump to eat.

She replies, "Pizza", and then giggles.

Just a thought, but no one who wants to live to an old age eats pizza on a regular basis. So, I would like to think that the Pope and Melania had a good laugh over that one.

On Edit: MSNBC cleared it up. It was Potiza. Which looks like a pastry nut confection.

had said, in Italian. I'm still looking for a list of the languages Melania is fluent in. So far, I've crossed off English and Italian.

Am i the only one that noticed that she covered her head for the pope, but not when in Saudi Arabia?

But she seemed to be in good company. All the other First Ladies wore headware for the Pope but the trend seems to be to be sans veil in Saudi Arabia.

Oh wait, they were supposed to be acting like a happily married couple who do things like spend time together, eat dinner together, and generally enjoy each other's company.

Easy mistake to make.
