FLOTUS spoke to the kids about Christmas and one of them asked if she had ever had a minced pie. Melania responded that she had not and told one of the children that “she was going to try one tonight,” according to the pool report.
Isabelle, 10, shared that she thought Melania was “really fun.” “My impression of her was actually really nice,” she added. “Everyone was expecting her to be very grumpy, but she was actually very nice.”
