BREAKING: Melania forgoes live coverage of NK Summit in favor of binge-watching "Frasier" on Netflix
No link yet...breaking news.
WASHINGTON DC: Melania Trump's spokesperson, East Wing communications director Stephanie Grisham, told CNN reporters on Tuesday that the First Lady did not view any of the live television coverage of her husband at the US / North Korea Summit in Singapore.
"The first lady was enjoying a break from the rigors of her Be Best program, and watched several episodes of the hit sitcom "Frasier" on Netflix. "She particularly enjoyed the episode in which Frasier's brother, Dr. Niles Crane, is smitten with his father's live-in physical therapist, Daphne Moone." When asked if that didn't happen in every episode of "Frasier," Grisham replied with a curt "YES." Her favorite episode is reportedly the one in which Niles divorces his wife, Maris, and marries Daphne.
When asked for the First Lady's impressions of the G7 Summit, Grisham replied "She's aware of the fact that the President is currently not in the White House. She doesn't know where he is, and she hasn't asked. She's simply enjoying some "me" time away from the rigors of helping each and every American to Be Best, and to stop CyberBullying."
When asked for comment, the President's attorney, Rudy Giuliani, told reporters "She misses him like hell and asks every hour on the hour when he'll be home."
