August 26, 2020 In Charlotte it is Melania's night. The most anticipated speech by the first lady on the second day of the Republican Convention that formalizes the president's run to the second term in the White House. "A husband who supports me in everything I do, we will be honored to serve this incredible country for another four years." On the day that sees Vice President Mike Pence evoke Lincoln's political legacy and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo decline the Trump doctrine of 'america first' in foreign policy, it is Melania Trump who grabs attention. 

"America needs Trump"
The United States "needs more than ever" Donald Trump, a "president who will never stop fighting for you and your families", who represents "the best for our country", who "has no secrets" and who it just wants "prosperity" and "success" for America.

"I do not attack rivals"
Word of Melania Trump, who in her speech at the second day of the Republican convention said she "does not want to use this precious time to attack" rivals "because, as we saw last week, this type of speech it only serves to divide the country even more ". A criticism, not too veiled, of the democratic convention and the 'notes' to Trump for the management of the coronavirus emergency, while in the US there are more than 5.7 million infections and over 178,000 deaths.


"I know that many people are worried and that some feel helpless - she said from the Rose Garden of the White House, that Rose Garden that she herself wanted to 'redo' and that many did not like - I want them to know that they are not alone ". 

"It will not stop fighting Covid"
"My husband's administration will not stop fighting until there is an effective therapy and a vaccine available to all - said the First Lady, who among her 'real' viewers in Rose Garden had Trump, Vice President Pence and his wife, his parents - Donald won't stop until he does everything he can to care for anyone who has suffered the consequences of this terrible pandemic. "

Over 177,000 Americans have lost their lives due to the new coronavirus and the US president, who initially tried to minimize the extent of the problem, was widely criticized for managing the emergency.

Unity Message
 Melania chooses a different line. Not that of Eric Trump who earlier accused Biden of knowing nothing about workers and companies. Not Tiffany Trump who attacked the media to manipulate reality just to hit her father. The first lady, speaking from the Rose Garden of the White House, points to a message of unity and promotes the image of a tycoon who cares only for the future of Americans, women, children, veterans, workers, businesses: "My husband Donald Trump fights for you, no matter what the media say. My husband is not a traditional politician, he likes to act. He is an authentic person, he cares about us, he cares about the future of America ", assures the former model of Slovenian origin.   

"Enough clashes and violence"
Then in the hours in which in Wisconsin we are witnessing once again the anti-racist protests, those against an increasingly violent police, Melania says enough to the clashes, riots and vandalism in the name of justice: "Instead of to throw things down we reflect on the mistakes of the past ", he says, referring to the now well-known war against statues, symbols of a colonialist and slave-owner past. At the end the ovation of those present and the president who, visibly moved, gets up and goes to kiss the first lady.   

Pompeo from Jerusalem: "World safer"
Mike Pompeo's long-awaited speech from Jerusalem: "Donald Trump has made America and the world safer by taking courageous initiatives in every corner of the globe, and has made NATO more strong". Speaking from the roof of the US embassy, ​​the US secretary of state praised the tycoon's foreign policy, stating that his family "is safer and his freedoms are safer because President Trump has translated the his vision of America First. Maybe it didn't make him popular in all foreign capitals, but it worked, "he added.
