Donald Trump made an enormous speech to all his supporters at Mar-a-Lago on Tuesday evening. Nicely, wait… all of his supporters??
In his first speech because the arraignment, the previous POTUS responded to his arrest with much less vitriol than we anticipated — we guess he tuckered himself out on that finish together with his Fact Social posts. In entrance of a gaggle of gathered followers within the ballroom of his Palm Seaside resort, Trump boasted about what a terrific man he was — and what a terrific household he had, saying:
“I constructed a terrific enterprise with my household, a implausible enterprise… I’ve a son right here who has achieved a terrific job, and I’ve one other son right here who has achieved a terrific job. And Tiffany, and Ivanka. And Barron will likely be nice sometime. He’s tall, he’s tall and he’s good… However I’ve a terrific household and so they have achieved a implausible job and we admire it very a lot. They’ve gone by way of hell.”
Yep even Barron Trump acquired a shoutout for being so tall!
Most of Trump’s household have been within the entrance row: Eric Trump and his spouse Lara, Donald Trump Jr and his fiancé — Fox Information host Kimberly Guilfoyle, Tiffany Trump and her husband.

However two members of the fam have been notably absent. Donald talked about daughter Ivanka Trump, however she wasn’t there. In reality, she hasn’t been there to assist Daddy in a while. Keep in mind, she wasn’t at his official 2024 announcement both! And when he was lastly indicted, her assertion was… effectively, diplomatic, let’s say. Or at the very least she didn’t take part together with his different sycophantic supporters in calling it an all-caps WITCH HUNT.
The opposite member, after all? Melania Trump. She notably wasn’t by his facet as he pleaded not responsible to fees arising from his hush cash fee to the grownup movie star he allegedly raw-dogged early on of their marriage. However heck, that was all the way in which in New York Metropolis! She lives in Palm Seaside now, child! That will have been a trouble and a half! So clearly she was there to greet him when he got here residence, proper? And held his hand on stage? Stood within the crowd and cheered?
Yeah, not a lot. However hey, that was all the way in which… downstairs. OK, yeah, it doesn’t look nice.
The place was she? Nicely, it may very well be she simply doesn’t assist Donald in all this. In any case, she was nursing the sometime nice child Barron when her husband was off plowing a porn star that point. The factor he was allegedly attempting to cowl up simply earlier than the 2016 election. And a supply who is aware of her down in her new Florida residence advised Individuals final month she was NOT over the entire thing. They claimed “she doesn’t sympathize with Donald’s plight”:
“She stays offended and doesn’t need to hear [the alleged hush money payment] talked about.”
So perhaps having to be in a room full of individuals — and Marjorie Taylor Greene and Matt Gaetz — all speaking in regards to the one specific Trump scandal she nonetheless holds a grudge over? Perhaps she simply didn’t really feel prefer it.
Melania fairly notably has not launched a press release formally about her husband’s indictment. However ignoring it’s making a press release in its personal means. And that assertion ain’t considered one of assist. Simply sayin’.
