Former First Lady Melania Trump has described the 2024 US Presidential Election as different and dangerous following the experience of her husband Donald Trump, who survived what appeared to be two assassination attempts in the run to the election.
Melania appeared on Fox News’ flagship morning show Fox & Friends, making her second appearance on the national stage in just three days.
After the two assassination attempts on her husband’s life, she does note that some things are different: “It is much more dangerous, and I’m very vigilant and very selective about where I go.”
Her public visibility has increased during the final stretch of the election after spending much of the campaign out of the public eye
She made a surprise appearance on Sunday at Madison Square Garden (MSG) in New York, and introduced her husband, Donald Trump, at the campaign event which has since been thrown into the centre of controversy over an offensive comment about Puerto Rico made by a comedian.
A Fox News anchor asks Trump about her MSG visit, to which she replies: “Sunday, through the day, was an amazing day.
“I think that people needed to hear from me on that day… and I want to support my husband as well, so I was there for him and everybody else.”
This is her third presidential election as a potential future First Lady. She said she was ready for the moment on stage because she has “much more experience” and compared the energy levels now to 2016, when Donald Trump won.
