What work were the tape of social networks and the front pages of Newspapers this week? Mostly the media was watching tour of trump, occasionally being distracted by an ongoing investigation of Russian interference in elections and small household accident.
The President started his foreign trip to Saudi Arabia. He visited a few summits in the middle East, agreed to supply weapons to a tidy sum of 110 billion now and $ 350 billion in the next 10 years, danced with a sword and has a picture of a glowing Orb with the king of Saudi Arabia and President of Egypt. The interesting has generated a lot of memes, and the arms trade media in the mood to discuss. However, the real topic of conversation was the Melania trump.
The main news is not a multibillion-dollar deal, and the dress code the first lady. Melania refused to cover his head during a visit to Saudi Arabia, however, as many famous ladies before her. Michelle Obama, Angela Merkel and Theresa may also did not wear the traditional Muslim countries of scarves or shawls during their visits. Perhaps the intense interest the choice is dictated by Melaniee old tweet of her husband, who, at the time, considered such a decision Michelle Obama offensive. The rest of the press found the style of his wife and daughter of the President of the United States is very elegant and newsmakers. The local media were delighted with the long black sets of Melania, with gold jewelry and a chunky belt. It compared with traditional female Arab dress.

From Nechama Rivlin with pulmonary fibrosis, she could hardly keep up with the rest of the delegation, and Melania decided to help her. Such an act of humanity touched the hearts of Israelis.
Next was the Vatican. Many call this trip trump religious tour – first to a Muslim country, then to the main Jewish Holy places, and finally the Holy city of Rome and the Vatican.
Not without discussing the dress code of ladies. The Vatican Trumps it kept wearing veils and black dresses. Although here it is rather desirable than strictly necessary. Pope Francis underscored was kept with the President and joked with his wife. Talked about the peacekeeping mission, immigrants and climate.
In General, the White house praised the pilot foreign trip as successful. This was largely the merit of the first lady. The couple went home and the media were full of photos, which the couple still held hands.
