Melissa Williams

I went to see Melania today- the documentary chronicling @FLOTUS’s 21 days leading up to the inauguration. LOVED it. It was like reliving the election win. 🎉 My takeaways: I’ve never cared so much about the cut of a neckline in my life, but I was on the edge of my seat with her inauguration fashion decisions. Throughout the movie her style, grace, and class were front and center. I liked how the movie didn’t try to pretend that she wasn’t rich, powerful, or comfortable with a large staff. It didn’t try to soften her, either. She was quiet & sometimes even stern. Still, it showed her human side & the love for her family. Two especially poignant scenes were a trip to cathedral to honor her mother and a meeting with a freed Israeli hostage who was pleading for her husband’s release. Trump pops in and out throughout – casual and hilarious. Their dynamic is sweet. He’s the main show, & she’s influencing from behind the curtain. When the movie culminates in the White House, I was struck by how Trump STILL seems to be in awe of it and its history. After seeing their grit and optimism up close, I left the movie feeling sad about how viciously the left is trying to destroy them. I’m rooting for them. What a historic win that was.
