"Low-profile first lady since Bess Truman".

Melania obviously does not WANT to be First Lady. It's beneath her to live at the White House and assume the duties normally associated with what a First Lady is expected to do. Do we not remember "the fucking Christmas" comment? Therefore, she should not be mentioned in the same sentence as those women who did serve in that capacity. She's not in the same category as any of them no matter how much she tries to dress like some of them!
