It amounted to a bunch of nothing. By tomorrow nobody will even mention her name.

Probably has a nap every afternoon, cause being an asshole's wife is hard work.

Yes, she opens herself to criticisms over what she says or does. However she is not running for office so poking fun at her name is no different than RWers mocking Michelle Obama's name. We're better than that. I apologize if I am being overly sensitive about the name calling here because I wouldn't have any issues with it if she was actually on the ballot.

I'm hearing all the true commentators saying "It was OK, but it won't move any needles." Trump surrogates are the only ones praising it.

Ms Trump is not a polished public speaker and that shows. Content was actually pretty positive, except of course that it was dripping in irony.

mentioned that she talked to a woman who was a Trump supporter, who'd switched to Hillary after initially saying that she never could 'because of the emails' after Trump started acting like a pig, who said that she still wasn't supporting Trump after Melania's speech, but was only there because her SON was a Trump supporter.

The upshot? The teen son was too young to vote!
