If she could spend the holidays anywhere in the world, Melania Trump says she’d take her family to a deserted, tropical island.

The first lady revealed her wish Thursday during a Christmastime visit with patients and staff at Children’s National hospital in the nation’s capital as she continued a holiday tradition begun more than 60 years ago by first lady Bess Truman.

After touring the neuroscience center and meeting privately with some patients, Mrs. Trump was escorted by Santa Claus to the atrium where she took a seat in front of a large Christmas tree and fielded a handful of questions from children and patients.

Ten-year-old Andy asked the first lady where she would spend the holidays if she could go anywhere in the world. Her answer prompted laughter.

“I would spend my holidays on a deserted island, tropical island with my family,” she said.

6. She's got her finger on the pulse of the nation.

[Raven]

7. That is a very telling answer, one that you might

expect from a First Lady after a few years in the spotlight. I doubt she'll last a full term in D.C.

8. Elba

Ta ta, Little hands

11. Sounds good to me

Why just the Christmas holiday? Make it permanent

12. One way tickets. No golf greens allowed.

Island would have to have a McDonald's though, or else they would try to escape.

13. There's a nice boat called the S.S. Minnow that will take people out for a 3 hour tour.....

15. St. Helena is nice this time of year . . . .

[bdamomma]

17. well she must be

the 1st first lady who is not very enthused with her position, she never wanted to be 1st lady. I am sure DT would not be joining her in her request.

[liberalhistorian]

18. So please feel free, then, to

make that wish come true and keep your controlling abuser there, permanently. We all should have our Christmas wishes come true!

19. Here's a nice one. Free fireworks displays. The Best Fireworks.

21. What? Deserted means there wouldn't be any servants.

[Historic NY]

24. No 2 scoops either.

23. As long as there isno access to the outside world, whatsoever, I am okay with that.

Especially if this island is in a hurricane-prone area, so that when one hits, they'll know what Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands are enduring Force 'em to have to live with each other for the rest of their miserable, stinking lives. I can't think of a worse punishment for them, other than having all their assets confiscated and redistributed to poor, brown people.
