Trump took the stage and gave Melania a big compliment — using CNN to do it.
CNN released a poll this week showing that Melanias popularity was skyrocketing. The CNN poll stated:
“In a poll conducted by SSRS last week, 57% say they have a favorable impression of Trump, up from 47% in January. This is the biggest number Melania Trump has experienced in any CNN polling, and higher than any favorability rating earned by President Donald Trump in CNN polling history going back to 1999.”
Trump mentioned the poll immediately, saying “Thank you very much, Melania. She has become a very, very popular first lady. Im reading that.”
Trump continued, saying “Im seeing all those stories and they love Melania. Thank you.”
The president went on to acknowledge Mrs. Pence, Ivanka and Kellyanne in the room.
“To all of the military spouses here with us this afternoon,” Trump said. “We are honored by your presence and we celebrate your heroic service and thats exactly what it is. Too often military spouses do not receive the recognition they deserve.”
