During the speech, the Slovenian-American former model spoke about the emotional sacrifices made by military families and mothers with children serving in the armed forces, while also paying tribute to families affected by recent tragedy.
However, the most memorable moment came when she referred to her husband as empathetic. Rather hilariously, she started laughing while saying it, which then prompted the audience to erupt with laughter too. Check out a video of the moment here.
"Most know my husband as the strong commander-in-chief. But his empathy transcends the role," Melania began, before visibly smiling and laughing, and then continuing: "And shapes a caring leader who constantly remembers each and every American soldier is someone's child."
She then said: "Distinguished guests, please join me with a warm welcome for our president, Donald J. Trump."
Internet Reactions
As expected, the moment quickly went viral across social media. "Who wrote that speech?" asked one Instagram user in disbelief. "Empathy, caring leader – she is funny," quipped a second, followed by two crying laughing emojis.
"Even she is laughing," observed a third, followed by three crying laughing emojis. "I'm also laughing," echoed a fourth, as a fifth concurred: "The world is laughing."
"The best standup comedy from the White House so far," a sixth chimed in, as a seventh noted: "She herself couldn't keep a straight face." "What a joke!" exclaimed an eighth. "The gag of all gags," declared a ninth, as a tenth concluded: "Neither her, nor him, nor the audience could hold their laughter."
