In a joint visit to North Carolina, First Lady Melania Trump and Second Lady Usha Vance met with military families at Camp Lejeune and Marine Corps Air Station New River. The two dignitaries engaged with the troops and their loved ones, emphasizing support for the military community. During their visit, Melania Trump delivered a speech highlighting the significant impact of artificial intelligence on modern warfare, warning that AI could reshape conflict more profoundly than nuclear weapons. The event was marked by a moment where Melania comforted a shy student, drawing attention from attendees. However, technical difficulties emerged as they faced microphone feedback during a visit to a military high school. This outing also aimed to show solidarity with military families ahead of the Thanksgiving holiday.
