Melania Blast Media For Rhetorics Leading To Trump Assassination Attempt
Former First Lady Melania Trump criticized the media on Thursday, claiming that its rhetoric may have contributed to the motivations behind two assassination attempts on former President Donald Trump.
During an interview with “Fox & Friends,” she stated that it was not surprising her husband faced such threats, given how left-wing media frequently refers to him as a “threat to democracy.” She also expressed frustration that the media quickly became silent about the two attempts, prompting her to ask more questions about the events.
“It’s interesting how quiet everything became all over the mainstream media. There were a few days they were reporting about July 13 event, and everything then became quiet. So I had a lot of questions, what’s going on? This is not normal,” Melania said. “And, is it really shocking that all this egregious violence goes against my husband, especially that we hear the leaders from the opposition party and mainstream media branding him as a threat to democracy, calling him vile names. They’re only fueling a toxic atmosphere and giving power to all of these people that want to do harm to him. This needs to stop.”

Melania Trump said she rushed to the television upon hearing about the first assassination attempt on her husband during a July 13 rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. Initially, she received no response from either her husband or the Secret Service when she tried to contact them, but later learned that Trump was safe.
Her son, Barron Trump, ran in after learning about the first attempt, leading to what she described as a “very, very difficult” conversation between them.
The former first lady also mentioned that she was in New York City during the second assassination attempt on September 15, which prompted her to reach out to the Secret Service to confirm her husband’s safety. She referred to the former president’s survival as “miracles,” attributing it to divine intervention, which she believes spared his life so he could continue serving the U.S.
“I think both of the events, they were really miracles,” Melania said. “If you really think about it, July 13 was a miracle. Like that much and he could not be with us … I think something was watching over him. I think, it’s almost like the country really needs him.”
