Former first lady Melania Trump is not sure whether first lady Jill Biden was “genuine” or not after the first attempted assassination attempt on President-elect Donald Trump.
Melania Trump told the French publication “Paris Match” last month that Jill Biden “took the initiative to contact me directly” after “someone tried to murder my husband in Pennsylvania,” per Fox News.
Despite that, as Melania Trump said in a Fox News interview, “I do question, however, whether Jill’s concern was genuine as a few days prior she referred to my husband as ‘evil’ and a ‘liar.'”
“It was obvious that the onslaught of rhetoric from Democrat leaders and the mainstream media was so deeply embedded in our nation’s consciousness it prompted an attempt to assassinate Donald,” she added. The Fox interview was conducted prior to Donald Trump winning the 2024 presidential election.
Melania Trump later added, “People today are so desensitized they actually joke about killing a former U.S. President.” She also said that “it is undeniable that this type of speech created a toxic political environment.”
