Melania Trump calls for aid to hurricane victims in new PSA

Source: The Hill

First lady Melania Trump is urging Americans to help with hurricane relief efforts in a new public service announcement, the White House announced Tuesday.

"The president and I have witnessed firsthand the compassion and commitment of Americans as friends, neighbors, and strangers continue to volunteer time and money to help one another following the recent hurricanes,” Trump says in the video, which was recorded in conjunction with the Federal Emergency Management Agency.

“Your help is still needed.”

The first lady's message comes after Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and the mainland United States were battered by multiple hurricanes this season.

Tue Oct 17, 2017, 12:47 PM
Oct 2017

1) Every public room in the White House has television lighting. Please turn it on.

2) Less eye makeup, please; this is a request for help, not the cover of Vogue.

3) Unless there’s an intro card we didn’t see, how are we to know who you are? “Hello, I’m First Lady Melania Trump” would do nicely.

4) Why the impersonal “the president and I”? ‘My husband and I” or “Donald and I” would have been friendlier. Since you didn’t introduce yourself, we don’t get the impression there’s a healthy family dynamic here.

and

5) Anyone else get the feeling this is a hostage video?

Creepy to me. When I listen to her accent, all I can think is, "Putin's Puppet" but I know she is not Russian. Still, my land lady speaks like her, and she is from Romania and my land lady is virtually a slum lord.

Yikes, what a world we live in!

almost as much as I despise him. She doesn't have to be party to this crime against our country. Especially after Larry Flynt offered 10 million dollars. How much does she need? She could be free. Clearly, she's as bad as he is.

Try delivering supplies where they can be accessed and distributed instead of leaving them in some remote out-of-the-way location. Send in truck drivers or whatever it takes to "complete" the mission.

I actually didn't understand half of the video but get the gist that she wants Americans to donate while her husband thumps his chest and pats himself on the back although he's doing such a poor job with relief efforts to PR.
