And while tensions seem to have arisen within her staff who have experienced a little game of musical chairs in this period of health crisis, Melania can count on a close guard with whom she maintains excellent relations: her "First Ladies Club ", namely the other First Ladies that she loves and that she incubates.
If we knew her empathy for our dear Brigitte Macron, it turns out that the First Lady US has built a real small circle of trust among the most influential women on the planet, as revealed by an article on the website of the CNN news channel. Confined to home like all the American people, Melania Trump has not however stopped her actions and initiatives, and it is from the White House that Donald Trump's wife has created close ties with seven wives of heads of States.

" In such extreme moments, the real temperaments are revealed and we are pleasantly surprised to see how popular and unifying Melania Trump is with her sisters. Hopefully now this results in an alliance that will serve the common interest. But in view of the casting, we have no real doubts.
