that it is undertaking a"significant renewal" of the Rose Garden, just outside of the West Wing of the White House.The project
There had been other gardens at the site, at least as far back as President Theodore Roosevelt. First Lady Edith Wilson reworked the site to include roses. McLaurin says there have been eight state dinners in the Rose Garden since the Johnson administration. "This is an opportunity for her to do something that's very traditional for a first lady, because Rose Gardens really are connected to first ladies, probably, maybe even more than how presidents use them," Cox Han says.
So your husband can make fun of them?
Changing them all to black roses for all the dead Americans trump let die
I sent her a garden design but never heard back... Although I am confident she can come up with a wonderful garden design on her own.
Just in time for the New President ..............................
Free Newton's pair
There is more to life than fighting over masks and rioting. Good for her, something positive in this mess.
Thousands dying and the trumping pole dancer is working on redecorating. Will she post signs that say she doesn't give a dam? Will the paths be stretched as tight as her face? Will the flowers be as plastic as her? And I'm sure it will cost billions tucked into her bank account.
Hahaha hahaha hahaha hahaha hahaha hahaha hahaha hahaha hahaha. Why she don't do something more relevant? Somenthing productive.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Where will she find the time, what with having to pack up and move back to Trump Tower in January?
Why? They will be out soon
Out of the whole Trump family, I’ve seen the least amount of graft out of Melania. So WTH, let her pad her pockets on the way out.
A lot of Americans need help right now, The flowers will be fine.
Graves have to be dug somewhere for his victims.
Rearranging the flower beds on the Trumptanic.
Are they planning to open the WH & rose garden for public tours Didn’t know this was a priority, donations or not.
Because the Trumps SO love people with disabilities. Pardon me while I puke.
I’ll pay for the Slippery Slide so the removal of realDonaldTrump and FLOTUS can go faster! TrumpLiesEverytimeHeSpeaks TrumpGriftsYouDie
Priorities
Did she completely abandon her anti-bullying campaign?
katiecouric Why decorate months before leaving the WH? That money should go to charity. Waste of money.
And coordinated by a brain dead person. She has no clue about anything.
MELANIATRUMP FLOTUS is not a lady, she is and will always be a cheap prostitute.
Oh Gawd they arent Going to paint it Gold are they? I have seen her 'Designs' at least she copied competent desigeners...
Well, she had 4 years to do it. Is she just doing this now? If so, she better hurry up.
Because this is exactly what we need right now...tonedeaf
Is she doing any weeding?
Ya let’s concentrate on that instead of your husband’s dismal failure of CV. Why are you redoing it anyway? You’re going to be vacating the premises SOON
How blessed are we. Pandemic, civil unrest, institutional cop racist violence, tens of millions to lose unemployment and their homes, and Melania says: 'I think I'll do some gardening....'
how about funding the dumbasses golf outings. or just repaying for his golf outings !
Can we talk about the time that FLOTUS husband mocked a disabled reporter at one of his cult rallies?
How did the tennis court overhaul work out?
It's part of finding something new.
FLOTUS be best at gardening in a pandemic that is killing hundreds of thousands 🤦🏼♀️ DumpTrump2020
Enjoy your garden while our country crumbles.
This doesn’t impress me much.
Better hurry up! You’re moving out in January.
More $$ in their pockets.
Man, this whole thing is a shit show!
No thanks.
Should probably make a nice COVID graveyard in the garden area instead. Is there enough room for 150k tombstones?
Wow and she is funding it with donations she solicited instead of blowing tax payer dollars like NPR This is great.
Because that’s what USA REALLY NEEDS RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!
Yikes! I shudder to see what happens.
Still waiting on her presser to explain her Einstein visa
Oh goodie. Whorehouse red with loads of bright gold paint. Can't wait.
Is Putin one of the donors? He is such a big part of this trump family!
She is a real woman.
Mmm, how can we twist this story in a negative way?
Don't make the Ramps too slippery
How about taking those private donations to fund covid test kits for local schools. Or food for local food banks. Or... well you get the point.
katiecouric I’m physically sick to my stomach. Take the money for the roses and give it to those who need healthy food to eat. Take the money and go in line in LA and help people. That’s what a Real First Lady would do, come on Melania make a difference ! dems4USA
I beg your pardon we never promised her a rose garden
Pathetic. Who cares... we are in a pandemic and the failed administrations lack of response and spread of false information is caused 150,000+ deaths and growing. Murderer!
Impeccable timing in an pandemic. Hey, mcconnell - why don’t you scurry over to tell her no major expenditures will be issued under 10 months of an election.
Wonderful just wonderful...
This more of the Trump’s “In your face” behavior! Totally callous and insensitive.
Is she going to bury the 160,000 dead Americans there? FLOTUS
Let the next First Lady do that. Is this really appropriate given the financial climate now? Totally insensitive
Why’d she wait until now to do it? That’s like painting your apartment right before your lease is up.
Sprucing things up while preparing to move out of your home is always a good idea. Curb appeal!
Work on convincing Trump Covid is killing Thousands infects millions !! Priorities
Trump re-do of Rose Garden: This is metaphorically literally rearranging the deck chairs on the titanic. mondaythoughts
Like her husband.
Is this some innuendo that Biden will select Tammy Duckworth as his running mate? Can't see Trumps being 'compliant' about anything.
Whatever.
With ramps? Ooh she’s brutal.
She only has til mid January to finish. lol
What she should be doing is help families who suffering from this pandemic instead of her own self interest.
So?
While over 150,000 of our citizens have passed. No remorse from the impotus. No jobs, worst economy ever, no help for individuals looking for help in paying their bills and feeding their families. But the First Lady is renovating the rose garden😳. WTF. ImpotusAmericanus
She just doesn’t want to wear flats while walking in it.
Normally I’d think this was wonderful. But I don’t think the Stony Slav is going to be getting her hands dirty, or really even paying attention. Maybe she’ll show up in her “I don’t care, do u” outfit.
I assume she finished the tennis pavilion then? Infrastructure week is alive and well it seems.
Please quit fronting this BS, feel-good story meant to distract from Trump administration crimes.
escort fancies up daddy's gold digger mansion, news at 11. Meh.
While she’s making improvements, she should have built-in whoopie cushions for all the assholes.
😰
Given how drab her White House Christmas decorations have been, the poor Rose Garden will probably end up looking like a gravel pit.
Pure shenanigans.
How nice FLOTUS gets to undoubtedly re-decorate the WhiteHouse Rose Garden as gaudy as her NY penthouse, while millions are unemployed and losing insurance, thousands are dying daily, her husband doesn’t want to extend UI benefits, and mass evictions are on the horizon.
Looks like trump is anticipating he may soon need wheelchair access.
Is this like when she stood at the podium as if she was speaking from the heart but recited Michelle Obama’s speech verbatim? How about the tennis court she was having built for the betterment of the U.S.? Is that being used? Maybe by Jared and Ivanka? Kim and Don Jr? DJT? GTFOH
Fiddling while her husband burns down Rome.
Why doesn't she do something to help victims of the pandemic?
The Donald is worried about the inclination of the ramp
Cut to when Trump openly mocked a reporter with a disability.
Let them eat cake
No one cares. 154k people dead. Tell your husband to do his job. My uncle’s blood is on his hands. So unnecessary. Mask up.
She’s better hurry before heading out of the White House gates in January....
Unbelievably ignorant to what America is now going through.....the birther, melania, who accused president Obama of not being born in this country without any proof is a disgrace....she should be sent back to her home in Russia where she worked as a porn star when trump met her!
Who exactly is buying us, the taxpayers, the owners of the White House, a significant renewal of the Rose Garden. See if you can find out so we can send them a thank you note.
When the US is stricken by covid19, Racism and rising unemployment? What a timing!
I honestly don’t think she’s qualified for that job. Can someone just give her a new mirror to stare at?
So much about nothing
Melania Trump 'overseeing a 'significant renewal' of the White House Rose Garden' will give me such joy when I am in the ICU trying to survive Covid19!
Why doesn't she remodel the cages of the children at the border?
🙄
👀...
No ones cares about the garden. Prioritize people who are not getting basics met! Geezus!
Those deck chairs aren’t going to rearrange themselves Melanie. Be Best!
I would personally oversee her transportation back to her country of birth.
Because the trumps have always been known for their care for those disabled
The ADA upgrades are for Trump after his possible strokes....?
Trump can’t stand even knowing that vegetables are nearby. So, veggies out and more roses in.
Most useless FL ever.
She’s had over three years. Why now🤪
great, but will the renovation be done in 93 days? we don’t want a lame duck, phone-it-in rose garden for the next potus.
If Michelle Obama did this you people would be calling for a documentary to be created to document the renovation...but you're bitter, bad people.
Thousands of people have died. It's time to redecorate! I wonder what kind of illegal activities are being pushed through while we are all focusing on the stupidity of this new idea. Maybe he is going to pass an executive order for his family to have a rose garden burial plot!!
Will there be a ramp?
Aren't there currently bigger fish to fry?
Oh yessss!! Such an amazing and urgent priority. Why help American families? ...let’s spend it on frivolous stuff. Thank you FLOTUS
Let them eat roses.
It might make it ada compliant. But why? Under Trump people with disabilities not welcome to be sure.
they can't touch it without making it ADA-compliant.
Okay, Mrs Birther. This is certainly a priority in the middle of a pandemic.
It will get changed back to rose garden when PRESIDENT BIDEN IS IN !!!!
She is REALLY trying to distance herself from trump's BS
Such a waste of money.
If you look, you’ll find the grift
So this is the new spin on this story. 🙄
Grifter
The First Lady: plants a garden. Lefties: REEEEEEEEE!!!!!
Thank you for your coverage of this vitally important issue.
What happened to Be Best?
Most valuable renovation for the Rose Garden would be the removal of the Trumps.
Meanwhile, millions are without jobs & food to eat. FLOTUS is tone deaf.
Making herself comfortable for the longhaul. Those assholes aren't planning on leaving when they lose.
Can’t wait to see her $20,000 gardening gloves.
That’s great that she can play better homes and gardens while US citizens are dying by the thousands each week of a disease that would have been managed if they cared as much about the citizens as they do about the looks of the rose garden
Waste of time & our tax dollars
Literally more important things to report than this
Yippee shit.
Still looking for the flammable liquid doused crosses.
With Confederate statues decoratively placed alongside ADA ramps.
What business did she have? Did he sink that too?
So on point since no one can visit the freakin place while 156,000 people have died! They are all monsters.
Shouldn’t we be like Mitch McConnell and wait to have the next First Lady Jill Biden handle this?
There's going to be a lot of gold plating.
Sounds like she's anticipating need for wheelchair access soon.
We still have kids in cages. Nice priorities.
Remember Melanie that the American with disabilities you married hates ramps. And Americans with disabilities.
Great job, honey. You too, dear!!!!!
She must be bored
What an important platform when 153,000 people have died in the pandemic we exist in.
Will it look like her Christmas 'decorations'?
BirtherPlagarizerMelanie concerned about ADA 😹😂😅😷
Make sure she knows that roses don’t respond well to Botox
Maybe volunteer service as a substitute teacher will be better as President Trump wants all schools open with in school attendance. She can speak how many languages?
Mary620497 Best First Lady Ever🙌🏻🇺🇸
If a democratic First Lady posed in Playboy and was the third wife of the President she would be hung in the rose garden.
Give the ho a hoe and make her start earning some of those taxpayer dollars that she is spending.
Friggin dumb. Doesn't she understand... A. This is not the time to replant roses. B. She'll be leaving in a few months so why begin some big project liiiike....
Does this mean she's having a steep ramp - steeper than anyone's ever seen - built for Donald?
Private donations?
Jill Biden will love it!
The ramp still be in the shape of the swastika to honor the fallen Nazis
We are dying and this is what the WH spends time on. Give them cake!
I take it she won't ever carry a hoe? Mrs Obama used to actually work in the garden with children to grow for used in the WH and given to food banks.
MarieAntionette
Nobody really cares.
If you removed everything about the trumps, this would be a nice article about the WH Rose Garden.
Are they out of Titanic deck chairs?
Ok FLOTUS! BeBest 👍🏽
Maybe don't start any big home improvement projects just yet
Hope the First Lady Of The United States FLOTUS doesn't used them seeds recently sent & found in the mail. Anyone find out the origin of seeds or if they were genetically modified?
Yes, exactly what we needed right now as a country.
“Private Donations” equals MoneyLaundering
Who plants in August?
ThirdLadyMelaniaTrump. fixed it for ya...
Less than 1 % of people will see the roses so take photos & sell postcards. Her husband will go & mock the flowers that have some imperfection just for practice when he sees people. Trump will enjoy the roses with sharp thorns. Trump is not a gardener, he is a pestilence.
So, this will serve as a project that wealthy 'donors' can support by just giving money to the WH. Why don't I believe this is as innocent as it seems on the surface?
What a load of crap.
The Queen of Hearts, she made some tarts, all on a hot summer's day. The Knave of Hearts, he stole those tarts. The mad Queen said, 'Off with his head! Off with his head! Off with his head!' Well... that's too bad... No more heads to cut.
BEST FIRST LADY EVER
Are they putting in showers with grab bars?!
Let them eat cake.
Why bother when we all know they have to move out in a couple of months?🤣🤣🤣
Melania really must be betting her orange hubby is gonna be usin' that Rose Garden for another four years. Wishful thinking. Maybe she should be retrofitting Trump's prison cell.
Millions are out of work and the WH is focus on the WH garden.. WTF!?!?!
God help the roses
First Lady Melania Trump is overseeing a 'significant renewal' of the White House Rose Garden. Funded by private donations, the project includes making the garden compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act. She's Building a Ramp For Donald TrumpThreatensAmerica
We don't give a fu©k about some roses right now. She needs to go find those kids her husband kidnapped and get them home to their families.
Isn’t accepting private donations to upgrade their personal quarters tantamount to bribery? Aren’t government officials not allowed to accept gifts; monetary or otherwise? 5 U.S. Code § 7353. Gifts to Federal employees Was this cleared through the supervising ethics office?
Donnie wants folks to mock just outside his window.
The fleecing of America continues.
👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻MELANIATRUMP
Oh, FLOTUS but he wouldn't be able to use! He is Leaving office. Make sure your new future residence compensates for mental disabilities and walking surfaces.
WhatWouldJackieDo?
Use that money to help unemployed Americans.
She heard they are moving soon and thinks they are flipping the house.
We aren't just concerned with flowers and plants, thank you Melania. 🙄
Private donations? Well, I hope it is more genuine than her “Be Best” campaign. We see where that went. Maybe she will have better luck with inanimate objects. ...will just leave that last part out there. 🤣
🤮these vulgarians should be banned from redecorating *anything*. Hopefully Jill Biden will rip it out
