Donald Trump made a giant speech to all his supporters at Mar-a-Lago on Tuesday evening. Well, wait… all of his supporters??
In his first speech for the reason that 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 Truth Social posts. In entrance of a gaggle of gathered followers within the ballroom of his Palm Beach resort, Trump boasted about what a fantastic man he was — and what a fantastic household he had, saying:
“I built a great business with my family, a fantastic business… I have a son here who has done a great job, and I have another son here who has done a great job. And Tiffany, and Ivanka. And Barron will be great someday. He is tall, he is tall and he’s smart… But I have a great family and they have done a fantastic job and we appreciate it very much. They have gone through hell.”
Yep even Barron Trump received a shoutout for being so tall!
Most of Trump’s household had been within the entrance row: Eric Trump and his spouse Lara, Donald Trump Jr and his fiancé — Fox News host Kimberly Guilfoyle, Tiffany Trump and her husband.

But two members of the fam had been notably absent. Donald talked about daughter Ivanka Trump, however she wasn’t there. In truth, she hasn’t been there to help Daddy in a while. Remember, she wasn’t at his official 2024 announcement both! And when he was lastly indicted, her assertion was… effectively, diplomatic, let’s say. Or a minimum of she didn’t take part together with his different sycophantic supporters in calling it an all-caps WITCH HUNT.
The different 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 uncooked-dogged early on of their marriage. But heck, that was all the best way in New York City! She lives in Palm Beach now, child! That would have been a problem 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. But hey, that was all the best way… downstairs. OK, yeah, it doesn’t look nice.
Where was she? Well, it could possibly be she simply doesn’t help Donald in all this. After all, 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 instructed People final month she was NOT over the entire thing. They claimed “she doesn’t sympathize with Donald’s plight”:
“She remains angry and doesn’t want to hear [the alleged hush money payment] mentioned.”
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? Maybe she simply didn’t really feel prefer it.
Melania fairly notably has not launched an announcement formally about her husband’s indictment. But ignoring it’s making an announcement in its personal approach. And that assertion ain’t one in every of help. Just sayin’.
