Trump springs news on Melania that she will give two or three 'big' speeches
By Nolan D. McCaskill
10/27/16 09:54 AM EDT
To Melania Trumps apparent surprise, Donald Trump announced Thursday that his wife would be making two or three big, important speeches.
Speaking alongside the Republican presidential nominee during a sit-down interview broadcast Thursday morning on Good Morning America, Melania Trump said she fully supports her husband.
And Im there for him every time he needs me. And I might join him, she said, referring to the campaign trail as Election Day nears. We will see.
Shes actually going to make two or three speeches, Donald Trump announced.
Oh, a startled Melania Trump interjected, prompting ABCs George Stephanopoulos to observe he made some news right there.

Checkers!
My Fellow Americans,
I come before you tonight as wife of a candidate for the Presidency and as a woman whose honesty and -- and integrity has been questioned.
Now, the usual political thing to do when charges are made against you is to either ignore them or to deny them without giving details. I believe we've had enough of that in the United States, particularly with the present Administration in Washington, D.C. To me the office of the wife of the President of the United States is a great office, and I feel that the people have got to have confidence in the integrity of the women who aspire to that office and who might obtain it.
I have a theory, too, that the best and only answer to a smear or to an honest misunderstanding of the facts is to tell the truth. And that's why I'm here tonight. I want to tell you my side of the case. I'm sure that you have read the charge, and you've heard it, that I, Melania Trump, plagiarize speeches.

But I think this was a window into the nature of their relationship and household.
