The first thing I noticed about Melania Trump's speech...

The audience was mostly men. Did they come to the speech just to ogle the former model? After all, they have a lot in common with Donald Trump.

I had heard that she was trying to appeal to the women of Pennsylvania? I saw very few women in the crowd? Why was that?

her teenage son wanted to see Melania because it was "history in the making." Apparently the teenage son is a con artist, too.
