from day one, this is a woman who has done it her way. remember all the pressure she had to move to the white house. immediately after the inauguration and she was like, you know, that doesn't work for me. i would like to stay here and be with my son until he, you know, finishes out the school year. and, again, with the surgery, you know, she had to know there was going to be a lot of speculation with her not being in the media, and she didn't care. she put her own health first, which she should as a woman and ignored all the naysayers and haters. griff: quick prediction, do you believe this will help first lady melania accomplish the goals? because they're rooting against her and everybody loves an underdog. >> absolutely. she is graceful. she is handling it beautifully. the way she handled it giuliani commenting on her marriage, she gave a very elegant, you know, statement saying i have never discussed anything with him. this is a woman who does it her way in a very elegant way that people actually are responding to.
