WASHINGTON, Feb 26 (Reuters) - First lady Melania Trump will chair a meeting of the United Nations Security Council on Monday as the U.S. takes over the monthly rotating presidency, the White House said.

Melania Trump will emphasize education as a way to advance tolerance and world peace at the meeting, which will be the first time a sitting American first lady presides over the 15-member council, the first lady's office said in a statement Wednesday.

U.S. President Donald Trump has been a vocal critic of the United Nations since his first White House term, saying the 198-member world body was ineffective and needed reforms.

Trump struck a more conciliatory tone last week at the first meeting of his Board of Peace, an initiative he said aims to resolve conflicts globally but one that many world leaders have failed to embrace amid concerns it was designed to replace the United Nations.

1. what a joke - she has no qualifications

and a horrible person married to an even more horrible person

maybe she's better than ivanka

[rurallib]

23. Hey - she's an Epstein scholar!

[ananda]

43. My first thought also: seriously?

Why is she even allowed to have anything
to do with the UN?

[RussBLib]

49. because of Trump, obviously

…. I’d like to hear her speak clearly in some of those other languages she is supposedly fluent in. Her English is pretty bad.

https://russblib.blogspot.com/?m=1

[ananda]

58. Is there anything good about her?

I don't even like her plastic, nor Trump's.

[SheltieLover]

2. Depose her publicly under oath about trumpstein instead

[jls4561]

3. Will she be showing off her language skills?

[Brother Buzz]

9. The closed caption boys will be taxing their skills trying to interpret what she is saying.

[Lonestarblue]

53. It will be easy. She'll just repeat Michelle Obama's ideas and words or focus over and over on Be Best.

Imagine her telling the world's UN ambassadors how to do their jobs!

[Grins]

13. No. Just her tits.

[cloudbase]

39. She'll be showing off her oral skills.

Be best!

[Jilly_in_VA]

4. Like she knows fuck all about security

Ask her about Epstein. Also about the boxes in the Mar-a-Lardo bathroom.

[rzemanfl]

5. Naked or with clothes on? n/t

[Layzeebeaver]

26. With a useless hat

[walkingman]

6. Once again we will be the laughing stock of the world.

[Tasmanian Devil]

7. Not the Onion?

Well I think this fits.

First you make the UN a bad joke, then you continue to refuse to pay the dues we owe the UN because ... it's a bad joke.

[Dear_Prudence]

8. Pity the translators

Who must translate her proto-pidgin English into standard English, then into the other official languages of the UN (Russian, Spanish, Arabic, Chinese, and French). Hers is not a fully developed pidgin because there is no other group that uses her "be best" language. I have huge respect for people who are multilingual, but none for linguistic posers.

[Frasier Balzov]

10. Caligula allegedly appointed his horse to high office.

We've seen this repeatedly with Trump.

[generalbetrayus]

31. If Orange Julius Caesar were to appoint his horse to high office, the horse would be missing its hindquarters

because the horse's ass will still be in the Oval Office.

[peppertree]

11. Talk about the Whore of Babylon

Riding the seven-headed beast and all.

[slightlv]

33. Wow... that's deep, Pepper... worth losing a non-productive afternoon

to endless thought, tho...! thanks!

[peppertree]

36. Why, thank you.

It is what it is.

[Warpy]

12. She might be self aborbed and boring but at least she's sawake

unlike that orange pile of putrefaction she's married to.

Offhand, I'd say expect a lot of this in the future. Other First Ladies of decrepit husbands have had to do the same thing.

[Deuxcents]

51. Well..she's no Eleanor Roosevelt and that's for damn sure

[Warpy]

54. Of course not

but that's how low the Republicans have set the bar.

[Botany]

14. " Melania Trump will emphasize education ...."

Really didn’t she drop out of college and move to Italy after 1 semester and @ some point became
a “sex worker” of some kind?

[RussBLib]

50. She did get quite an "education"

Albeit in a lurid direction.

[bamagal62]

15. 😂😂😂

[Floyd R. Turbo]

16. Will there be a pole? I heard there will be a pole!

[Goonch]

17. ;-{)....seriously?

[Torchlight]

18. Pitching her OnlyFans page is my guess

and gauging whether the UN would be open to having stripper poles installed (at their own expense, though).

[efhmc]

19. Who is going to translate her gobbledygook into English?

[FakeNoose]

20. This is how Chump regards the United Nations

Yes it's a total insult to a real Security Council, but he doesn't care.
He has his own "Board of Peace" where the real "billion-dollar" men sit.

[Solly Mack]

21. lolololol

It gets more embarrassing each day.

[KT2000]

22. He has to outsource now

saving himself for the income generating rallies and sales pitches.

[lark]

24. Gag me!

How horifically horrible that first ho, Epstein girl and mean as a snake person, who is in the country illegally havin lied to get an Einstein visa (she doesn't speak 4 languages, that is a lie) should have this honor is beyond vile.

[JohnnyRingo]

25. Maybe she'll suggest cutting spending on education.

WTF is this centerfold skank even considered viable to speak to the World Body? How can she begin to address any issues that face global crisis?

Will she be wearing her coat that says "I don't really care, do you"? This is an insult to The UN. Britney Spears would make more sense.

Pardon my language, but I'm sick of it.

[colorado_ufo]

27. It's not even April 1st.

[Prairie Gates]

28. The Red Sparrow will be conducting some manner of dead drop with Russian intelligence

[muriel_volestrangler]

29. After Security Council Chair Melania, we will release Astronaut Melania (thanks, Jeff!), and then

News Anchor Melania (thanks, Bari!), and then United States Air Force pilot Melania (thanks, Pete!), followed by Surgeon Melania (thanks, Robert!), Musician Melania (thanks, Donald J. Trump and John F. Kennedy Memorial Center for the Performing Arts board!) and Ballerina Melania (hey, board, you again - double work! Give yourselves all a Trump Kennedy Center Honor!)

And to think Barbie only got as far as UNICEF ambassador ...

Remember, kiddies, this is the Western Culture that we must defend from the Somali Pirates Who Invaded Minnesota.

[bucolic_frolic]

30. Hope there are empty seats /nt

[generalbetrayus]

32. What, Don Jr. wasn't available?

[TurboDem]

34. Will she tell them

"Make fuck, get green card"?

[Vinca]

35. Will she tell the other members of the Security Council when she expects her husband to become educated?

[The Wizard]

37. Who gets tasked with the job of interpreter?

Her verbal skills are questionable at best.

[2naSalit]

38. Maybe the other members...

Will not give her any time to speak after her intro. She's probably there to pass info to the ruzzians.

[moniss]

40. I thought this was something from The Onion. nt

[electric_blue68]

41. "A way to advance tolerance" ??!

Riiiiiiight.....

Besides her being unqualified!

[Talitha]

42. Lemme guess... there'll be an admission charge, and then they'll have to watch her movie.

[Bayard]

44. That's just a big fat insult to the UN,

Send someone who's main qualification is strewing the White House with horrendous xmas decorations.

[QueerDuck]

45. I love The Onion! Or is it Borowitz? 😂🤣😂🤣

[Aussie105]

46. Being well schooled in diplomacy . . .

members of the Council will listen politely to Melania's vacuous utterings, then go off and have separate and productive dialog behind closed doors.

[sakabatou]

47. It just keeps getting worse and worse

[bluestarone]

48. The only chair she should be sitting in is

The same one that Hillary was sitting in!

[blm]

52. Representing Putin.

[LudwigPastorius]

55. I hope the UN has a translator fluent in "whiny, Slovenian sex worker English", otherwise...

nobody is going to understand a damn thing she says.

[mercuryblues]

56. Does she think there is a

Stripper pole there. I hear she needs a few bucks.

[CTyankee]

57. what could possibly go wrong?
