Melania Trump: what role does she play with her husband?
Donald Trump will formalize his candidacy for the 2020 presidential election on Tuesday, June 18. The president will be in Florida with his wife Melania, who had a difficult start in the White House. How does she see the prospect of a second term?
She is the most scrutinized woman in the United States. She took six months to move to the White House and often refuses the hand to Donald Trump, her husband. It confuses observers and part of the citizens who wonder: what is the mystery Melania Trump? Americans rarely hear the sound of his voice. Deemed erased or not happy, Melania Trump says she is hurt by the parodies on television portraying her as a superficial woman.
Unfair treatment of mainstream media?
For this Republican historian, the first lady is the victim of unfair treatment. "The media didn't respect Melania the way all former first ladies did, just because she's Donald Trump's wife. It's a shame." For Republican voters, it fulfills its role perfectly. "She knows how to keep her position, she knows how to play her role as president's wife," explains Rosine Ghawji, a Franco-American voter.
