Michelle had the same number of aides as Laura Bush. A normal retinue, in other words. Apparently Melania isn't planning on doing enough of anything to keep a staff busy.

Here’s a hint. They do not meet in ballrooms or in a conference room next door to an Avon conference. They meet in Presidential Suites for what should be obvious reasons. As Mikala mentioned, it is likely they had to book the entire floor for security reasons.

She was there representing the US for the Invictus Games, just as Michelle Obama was in Orlando for the same event when she was FLOTUS.

Yeah, right, sure, Melania had a reception for 100 athletes in the presidential suite of a hotel. Thanks, I'll see myself out now because there's no point in discussing this topic with people who have no concept of reality

True, but the hotel bill of $174,000 DOES NOT include said expenses. For the record, the advance team's total expense was only $18,000 and it's not included in the $174,000 hotel bill for Melania Trump. $174,000 is only the hotel bill for our First Lady and nothing else.

You may ask: Maybe Melania spend the night at the most expensive suite!! Well, the very top rated room in Ritz Carlton was $8,000. And for the record, Melania did not spend the night.

So how does it come out to $174,000??

I guess you'll have to know GOP math because WH officials are refusing to comment.

Melania Trump racked up $174,000 in hotel bills for a day trip to Toronto

Melania contributes nothing to anything. There is no reason for her to go anywhere other than Trump Tower in Manhattan or stay in the White House. She has zero credibility, having to plagiarize Michelle Obama in her attempt at public speaking during the nomination process, and being an international embarrassment when she made a highly publicized trip to the U.S./Mexican border.

In all fairness, that's on her speech "writers", I doubt she had any knowledge of it.

I do not think that Melania has been a productive first lady, she dresses impeccably and looks nice, but anything else seems unlikely.

What are YOU talking about? She did both.

12:09 pm (Sept. 23): Arrives in Toronto. The first lady travels to a downtown Sheraton, meets with Britain’s prince Harry for 20 minutes, and then departs for the Ritz-Carlton.

4 pm: Returns to Sheraton. The first lady meets with US athletes competing in the Invictus Games (an event for disabled veterans created in 2014 by prince Harry) for 20 minutes. She delivers a speech that was one minute, 15 seconds long.

6:35 pm: Arrives at Air Canada Centre. The first lady greets prime minister Justin Trudeau and his family and watches the opening ceremony of the games from a VIP suite.

With all the crazy Liberals hating the Trump family, you have to have high security costs.

That poster said Melania had a reception for 100 athletes in the Presidential suite of a hotel. Are asserting that she hosted the athletes in a Presidential suite?

I'm just not getting the whole concept of First Lady. Why does the American taxpayer have to pay for a staff and useless non consequential overseas trips. They all have these silly little pet projects that draws attention from no one. The President's spouse can just sit around the White House watching TV or doing crossword puzzles for all I care.
