First lady Melania Trump would have laughed at the campaign efforts by President Donald Trump to appear at events, according to the latest book by journalist Michael Wolff, All or nothing.

Why it matters

In the middle of the presidential campaign in 2024 of Trump, Melania remained largely outside the eye of the public. She missed several important events, including her Super Primary Elections Victory Party on Tuesday and was absent from the courtroom in the midst of her legal affairs such as her Hush Money criminal trial in New York.

His absence came because there have been speculations for a long time on the relationship of the couple as “where is Melania?” was a frequent question raised by the media and criticism during the campaign.

However, Melania appeared to the National Republican Convention (RNC) in Milwaukee in July and spoke up following an assassination attempt that was made on her husband in a butler campaign rally in Pennsylvania. In October, she made a rare appearance during the Madison Square Garden Rally of her husband where she called her supporters “the heart rate of this great metropolis”. On the evening of the elections, she joined Trump on stage for her victory speech in West Palm Beach, Florida.

What to know

Wolff, who wrote a number of critical books on the president, wrote in his next book, All or nothingOn the Republican electoral campaign in 2024 and how Melania remained out of the public’s eyes during this period.

In an extract, Wolff described a moment in which Melania would have laughed at the effort of the campaign “to make her accompany her husband”.

The extract said: “Since the first indictment in New York, when Melania had simply laughed at the campaign to make her accompany her husband (` `nice test ”), it was clear that she was not going to introduce herself. Non -traditional Trums Life Agreements And their meticulous distance from each other – become a problem.

In another extract, Wolff noted the “where is Melania?” Question before Trump’s first attempted assassination.

“Melania continued to be an additional panoramic, absolutely refusing all the deletions to speak or even appear side by side with her husband. He had never faced questions at close range of the media on their relationship. But that that Is it if “where was Melania? ‘Has started now? Repositioned his joyful and abject coronation convention which he dreamed of: “reads the extract.

The day after the assassination attempt, Melania shared an online statement, urging Americans to unite beyond politics, expressed condolences to the families of the wounded and the deceased, and stressed the personal qualities of Trump.

The release of All or nothing Follows a period of relative public silence from the First Lady who has not been seen since January 24 when she accompanied Trump on a Hurricane disaster site in North Carolina.

Despite Trump’s burst of public activity – including executive decrees, meetings with world leaders and participation in the Super Bowl – Mélanie remained absent.

Is Michael Wolff credible?

Some criticisms have questioned the accuracy of some of Wolff’s previous allegations on Trump and the Trump administration. Arkansas’ governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders, a republican who was press secretary of the White House under Trump from 2017 to 2019, said that Wolff’s previous book, Fire and Fury, contained “an error after error after error”.

She questioned the integrity of Wolff, saying: “I think you have to consider the history of this author”, and called the book as “tabloid gossip” and “full of lies”.

Wolff replied that he had recordings and notes and supports “absolutely everything in the book”.

What people say

Trump’s White House communications director Steven Cheung said Nowsweek Saturday: “Michael Wolff is a bag lying of sh ** and turned out to be fraud. He regularly manufactures stories from his sick and distorted imagination, only possible because he has a serious and debilitating case of syndrome of syndrome Trump’s disturbance that has rotten his brain the size of a peanut. “

Before the inauguration of Donald Trump, Melania Trump told Fox News that she gives her own advice to her husband but admitted that he was not always listening to her.

“I do not always agree (with) what my husband says or does, and it’s okay,” she told the host Ainsley Earhardt. “I give him my advice, and sometimes he listens, sometimes he doesn’t.”

Commenting on her first four years as a first lady, she added: “I just think that people did not accept me maybe, they did not understand me as they may do now. And I did not have much support. No”.

What happens next?
