'Why would a woman of no achievements have been selected?' wrote Florida resident Carol Bodeen.

First lady Melania Trump received a"Woman of Distinction" award on Wednesday from Palm Beach Atlantic University in Florida, despite concerns from some residents that she was undeserving of the honor

Some critics of the first lady voiced their disapproval."This award has historically gone to women whose character and impact in Palm Beach have shaped the culture of our home," PBAU senior Graysen Boehning told The Hill,"and I have not been convinced that the first lady's character or impact here is worthy of that recognition."

."We seldom hear from her or see her other than attending state affairs or exiting Air Force One with the president."Trump accepted the award in front of a sold-out luncheon where she received standing ovations for her speech, which focused on her Be Best campaign, an initiative aimed towards enriching the lives of American children.

"1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, the White House, is the place I have come to love and will stay for, hopefully, another 5 years as we MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN," the president tweeted,"but my family and I will be making Palm Beach, Florida, our Permanent Residence."
