Melania Trump opens post-presidency office ... and criticizes media
The former First Lady announced the opening of the office to manage her post-presidency affairs.
After the Office of Donald Trump, that of Melania Trump. On Friday, the former First Lady announced the creation of the office to manage her post-presidency affairs. “In recent weeks, Ms. Trump has focused on her responsibilities as a mother and settling her family into their new home. She has always been involved in humanitarian work and is an entrepreneur by nature. She has a lot of different ideas, it will take time to put them together. No matter what she decides to do, it will be done with quality and passion, ”wrote this office in a statement forwarded exclusively to Breitbart, the far-right media once run by Steve Bannon. The Bureau is currently made up of three former employees of Melania Trump at the White House.

While waiting to reveal what cause the former First Lady will be dedicated to, this account has been used to deny CNN information that Melania Trump is having trouble digesting the end of her husband's tenure, marked by the invasion of the Capitol by some of his supporters on January 6. A complicated situation for the model, who was very discreet for four years at the White House and took more than a year to launch his “Be Best” initiative.
"When she saw what was happening, she knew she had nothing to gain by speaking or acting, she did nothing," recalled a former member of her team, according to whom the position of Melania Trump was a trap: if she had denounced the violence that her husband himself took a long time to comment on, she would have drawn the wrath of her most loyal electorate and created a very visible disagreement with the one who was still president. But the silence of the Trumps was not appreciated: two members of his entourage, Stephanie Grisham and Anna Cristina Niceta, his chief of staff and his assistant, present by his side for four years, both resigned on the same day.
Bitter towards the media coverage of Jill Biden?
Melania Trump would nourish, still according to CNN, a certain bitterness towards Jill Biden, who has already posed in the front page of “People”, just a few days after the inauguration of her husband, and has multiplied the initiatives and outputs since January 20, while the daily life of the American-Slovenian would consist of visits to the spa in Mar-a-Lago and family dinners. The media treatment of her news has always been a sensitive subject for Melania Trump, who had described herself as "the most harassed person in the world" in 2018.
During a call recorded without her knowing in the summer of 2018 by her former collaborator Stephanie Winston Wolkoff, she complained emphatically that the media questioned her about the separation of families arrested at the Mexican border and not about her activities as First Lady: “They say that I am an accomplice. That I am the same as him, that I support him. I don't talk enough, I don't do enough ... While I'm breaking my ass for Christmas stuff, who cares about Christmas stuff and decorations?
But I have to do it, don't I? And then I do it, I say I'm working for Christmas, preparing for Christmas, and they say, "What about separated children?" Leave me the fuck alone. What did they say when Obama did it? I can't go, I tried to reunite the kid with his mother. I couldn't ... You have to go through the process and through the law. ” The two women did not meet - in the face of her husband's denial of defeat, Melania Trump did not invite Joe Biden's wife to the White House, an attention Michelle Obama had had towards her in 2016 -, but the former First Lady would have left him a mail.
Among the first tweets from Melania Trump's office, a few reminders of her actions as First Lady - and therefore a sharp criticism of the CNN article well illustrating the complicated relationship of Donald Trump's wife with the media. “Ms. Trump is no longer First Lady. She is a private citizen, mother and wife. The sources of this article are not related with her, do not have access to her thoughts or her daily life ”, it was written, denouncing“ a decision to publish which illustrates the unhealthy obsession of the media ”.
