Never knew he played the piano, but I was pretty sure she played the organ.
I disagree.  Circle gets the square.

Trump cites concern for first lady’s safety during surprise trip to Iraq

BY MORGAN CHALFANT - 12/26/18 04:23 PM EST
   

President Trump said Wednesday that he was concerned for the safety of first lady Melania Trump when making an unannounced trip to visit U.S. troops in Iraq for the Christmas holiday.

“I had concerns about the institution of the presidency. Not for myself personally. I had concerns for the first lady, I will tell you,” Trump told reporters shortly after landing at the Al Asad Airbase west of Baghdad.

“But if you would have (seen) what we had to go through in the darkened plane with all windows] closed with no light anywhere. Pitch black. I’ve been on many airplanes. All types and shapes and sizes,” Trump added. “So did I have a concern? Yes, I had a concern.”

    WHAT??????



Seems like a reasonable concern to me. If I was taking Mrs. V. into an active war zone I would have some concerns as well.

On the plus side we haven't heard the current 1st Lady saying; "I remember landing under sniper fire. There was supposed to be some kind of a greeting ceremony at the airport, but instead we just ran with our heads down to get into the vehicles to get to our base"

You speak truth and wisdom @Slide Rule

Unfortunately, half our fellow citizens reside in an alternate reality universe regarding one of the best darn presidents in my lifetime, Donald J Trump.
