TL;DR Summary

Melania Trump, the former first lady and an immigrant herself, has been invited to preside over a naturalization ceremony at the National Archives, swearing in new citizens from various countries. The event, organized by a federal agency, has raised questions about the involvement of a candidate's spouse in a heartwarming photo-op just before the Iowa caucuses. While the Archives claims the event is nonpartisan, critics argue that it could be seen as a political move to soften Donald Trump's image on immigration issues. The invitation has also sparked concerns about the politicization of naturalization ceremonies and the need to maintain their nonpartisan nature.
