During a speech the President made earlier this week, he paid tribute to several legendary women, including former first lady, Martha Washington, Betsy Ross (who is credited with making the first US flag), pilot Amelia Earhart, and singer Aretha Franklin. However, the speech took a turn that no one was expecting.
He said, “The Trump administration is working every single day to make America better, safer, and more prosperous for women… and men. But much more importantly for women.”They are really the inspiration. They are so, so powerful and so important and so beautiful.”
Donald Trump then went on to say that there was a word he could not say because it would end his political career. The President said, “I’m not allowed to use the word beautiful, but I’m using it anyway. Usually, it’s the end of your political career. If you say a woman’s a beautiful woman, they say that’s the termination of his career.”
He went on to say, “But somehow, it hasn’t hurt too much. You are incredible women, and you’re beautiful women.”
Melania had given a speech earlier where she referred to herself as a ‘visionary’ and also referenced her Melania documentary. The documentary was bought by Amazon for $40 million, but it only made around $16 million at the worldwide box office.
The movie currently has an 11 percent critics’ score on Rotten Tomatoes, while its audience score is 98 percent.
The documentary was directed by Brett Ratner, his first project after he was accused of sexual harassment in 2017, allegations that he still denies.
Melania Trump said in her remarks at the event, “As a visionary, I know success is not born overnight, but rather takes shape after a long and sometimes challenging process.”
She went on to add, “Often alone at the top, I follow my passion, listen to my instinct, and always maintain a laser focus.”In solitude, my creative mind dances, filling my imagination with originality.”
She then mentioned her film, saying, ‘my new film where I shaped its creative direction, served as a producer, managed its post-production and activated the marketing campaign’.
The President also complained about not getting enough credit for some of the things he has done in terms of events, “We have the Olympics and we have the World Cup coming up… I did the Olympics, I got the Olympics, then I got the World Cup, then I got 250 [year celebration], but I’ve never been given credit for that.”
