CALLISTA GINGRICH: Melania Trump — Just What The Country Needs

On Oct. 27, former First Lady Melania Trump gave a surprise speech at the Trump rally in Madison Square Garden.

Speaking to a crowd of 20,000 people in the heart of New York City, Melania declared: “America needs magic back.” She called upon all Americans voting in this election to come “together with a shared vision that builds on American greatness.”

With grace and poise, Melania entered the political spotlight when her husband, former President Donald J. Trump, announced his first presidential run at Trump Tower in June 2015. In the nine years that have followed, she has stood by his side as his greatest supporter. Despite the mainstream media throwing every possible attack her way and a former close friend’s betrayal, Melania has stoically combatted misinformation and lies to defend her husband and her family.

Now, Melania tells her story – from growing up in Slovenia to becoming First Lady of the United States – in her #1 New York Times bestseller, Melania. “As a private person who has often been the subject of public scrutiny and misrepresentation, I feel a responsibility to set the record straight and to provide the actual account of my experiences,” she wrote.

Melania shares with readers the many joys, triumphs, challenges, and heartaches that she has experienced throughout her life – in her own words.

She describes for readers one of the most devastating moments in recent memory, the July 13 attempted assassination of her husband in Butler, Pa., and the murder of Corey Comperatore, who lost his life shielding his family from gunfire.

As a wife and a mother, Melania described the moment that “felt like an eternity” and her concern for her son, who was watching the news unfold on TV.
