Melania Trump was asked on Fox News on Tuesday why she finally joined her husband, Donald Trump, for his final campaign rally in the 2024 primary. She has rarely been present on the Republican candidate’s side in the past few months.
“You went on stage on Sunday. You surprised the former president. You surprised the entire audience. Why can’t I now see more of my last-mile campaign tracking?” co-host Lawrence Jones asked the former first lady in a very intimate sit-down on “Fox & Friends.”
The former first lady wasn’t very clear in her response.
“It was such an amazing place. I love New York City and I think people will hear from me that day,” she said. “The arena, Madison Square Garden, the support we have, and I want to support my husband as well. So I was there for him and everyone else.”
Later in the discussion, she was given the opportunity to report on her husband’s increasingly fascist tendencies and his admiration for Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler.

Melania Trump, who was rarely seen during most of her husband’s presidential campaign, has made many media appearances recently to promote her new book, ‘Melania.’
She was with the Republican candidate at a hate-filled Madison Square Garden rally in New York on Sunday. She also attended a charity dinner with him earlier this month, and at one point he boasted that he could grab a woman’s genitals.
Before that, I hadn’t been with him at a major event since the Republican National Convention last July.
