President Donald Trump, joined by First Lady Melania Trump, signed an executive order on Thursday aimed at modernizing America\u2019s foster care system and supporting the roughly 400,000 children in foster care. Melania also launched her \u201cFostering the Future\u201d initiative, part of her \u201cBe Best\u201d campaign offering scholarships to current and former foster youth.<\/p>\n
Trump said he was \u201cdelighted\u201d to sign the initiative and praised Second Lady Usha Vance\u2019s involvement. Melania urged leaders and organizations to join the effort, calling the order \u201cempathetic and strategic\u201d and predicting it would spark a nationwide movement.<\/p>\n
However, attention soon shifted to Trump\u2019s behavior during Melania\u2019s speech. Some social media users claimed he looked as if he were struggling to keep his eyes open, joking about \u201csleepy Donald.\u201d Others focused on his unusual \u201cone-armed clapping\u201d when applauding Melania, sparking speculation and jokes online, though some defended him, saying it looked normal.<\/p>\n
After the applause, Trump kissed Melania and said the country was \u201ctruly blessed\u201d to have her as First Lady, joking that audiences often say they want to hear from her instead of him.<\/p>\n
