I SAW THIS! AND, Melania stood there with intention and did not move until POTUS gave her a nod! Important comm!
So glad you posted this Major! You beat me to it...kek!
Worth remembering. Think Chess. Do you attack the KING in the beginning or middle-to-end? QUEEN protects KING? Q

Do you attack and remove queen mid-to-end? Is the game being played public or private? Do emotions affect critical thinking? Add: important king control pieces [elim rogue elements]? Add: how do you set the stage [board] re: public opinion [optics]? “At this time.” Q

So, have enough pawns been dismantled that we can start looking at bringing in the King (Obama)? Would Hillary be the Queen?
Hard to say. A couple of people could be. Miss Lindsey's an obvious thought, as is Hillary, but I think clearly she's been moved off the board. Michael "Michelle" Robinson plays the role from time to time as well.
The ambiguity is intentional, and symbols sometimes have more than one meaning.
I'm not very knowledgeable in Chess but the comments on the tweet also talk about how the Queen cannot Checkmate unless assisted by the King.
I wonder if this means we'll be seeing some moves from Melania? Or perhaps she already has and I've missed them.
Is not chess. (It can be the answer to specific chess puzzles/scenarios, but it's not a rule of chess.) Checkmate can be accomplished with or without king, with or without queen, and by any number of other pieces. Usually (i.e., almost always) it's a combo of pieces.
I think it means that if you just had a queen you could not force checkmate on your opponent. You could check him all round the board but you could not get close enough to cover all the necessary squares.
However, if you used the king as well, and you would have a king if you were still playing, then the king could protect the queen when it was next to the opposing king so it could then cover all the necessary squares.
So you are right, it is not a rule, just a fact of life.
You can checkmate with just a queen. It is the most powerful piece. Did it many times in longer games. But game over with no King.
You can checkmate with just 1 piece outside the king.
Can you give an example of a final position?
The closest I can get is King at square a1 and Queen at square b2. The problem with that is that the King can take the Queen so not checkmate.
If the Queen is farther away then the King always has somewhere to move to.
Man, I forget the positions and such. But it can be anywhere. Just started playing the computer again at avg level.
I think if just the King is left you have 15 or 20 moves to get him in checkmate. I forget.
Sorry, I still say it is not possible with just a Queen. You need to use at least the King to protect it.
Agree important com! Didn’t notice at first, kinda just thought it was an awkward moment, until just pointed out. Melania’s smile said it all. I’m smiling now too. Been stressing. Now I can sleep a little more soundly tonight.
Yay!
I haven't seen anyone post this and was curious what people think.
When I watched the parade it seemed very intentional and yet I've never seen anyone else do that before accepting a US flag.
Better video showing them getting into this position
Personally I think it's a stretch to tie this stance to chess in any way.
nice! great video
Awesome. Definitely comms. Melania’s smile said it all!
He was just checking out his wife’s hot ass as they waited for the soldier to bring the flag. I would if I was him…
To the no kings kids…check mate
Isnt it odd the no kings BS is trying to happen at the same time…
Melania Romanov
Where'd that idea come from?
I wonder if we'll ever know for certain ..? 👸
