Being the wife of former President Donald Trump cannot be easy, and many thought Melania Trump was unhappy during her time in the White House (per the New York Post). Donald recently went on “Fox and Friends,” where he was asked the question, “Is it true that the former first lady, Melania Trump, has told you ‘I’m not going back if you run again’?”
The former president’s answer was not surprising. He quipped, “No, that’s not true. That’s an interesting one. More fake news,” adding, ”No, that’s not true.” He wasn’t done praising his wife. He continued, “She was a great first lady, she did a great job. She loves the people, they love her, I see how they love her.”
While the former president is confident in his wife’s role as the first lady, new charges may change how the public perceives her if the Trump family runs for the presidency again.
The most recent Trump-related news arises from accusations made in a new book written by Mark Meadows, the former White House chief of staff (via Business Insider). Meadows claims that Trump was aware of his COVID-19 diagnosis prior to debating Joe Biden and that even a diagnosis like that would not have prevented him from coming on stage.
Meadows wrote, “I shuddered at the thought of having to tell President Trump, a man who does not like to shy away from a fight, that we were going to have to cancel the debate with Joe Biden all because of an illness.” However, Trump did debate Biden anyway.
Now, the former first lady is being implicated in this scandal (per The Washington Post). The writer of the column, Greg Sargent, penned that the whole Trump family could go down with this accusation, writing, “It turns out that this revelation, which comes in a new book by former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows, also implicates members of Trump’s family, including Melania Trump and Donald Trump Jr.”
He continued, “That’s because multiple people around Trump, including his wife, Melania Trump, and his kids Donald Jr. and Eric, all sat mask-less at the Sept. 29 debate, according to contemporaneous reports, despite the fact that debate attendees were required to wear masks.”
Time will tell how the fallout from this scandal will act out.
