Donald Trump and Melania’s relationship has always been of great interest to the media. However, while the First Lady might not have been seen a lot in public during their second tenure at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, it appears that she has plenty of influence within the White House walls. That is something that hasn’t gone unnoticed by staff.
During the recent meeting between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin in Alaska, Melania, without being accompanied by her husband, delivered a letter to the Russian president. In what could only be described as a “peace letter,” Melania urged Putin to consider the children in both Ukraine and Russia who have been affected by the Russian invasion.
“Mr. Putin, you can singlehandedly restore their melodic laughter,” Melania Trump wrote. “In protecting the innocence of these children, you will do more than serve Russia alone—you serve humanity itself.”
“Such a bold idea transcends all human division, and you, Mr. Putin, are fit to implement this vision with a stroke of the pen today,” she added. “It is time.”
Melania Trump’s power dynamic shift with Donald is ‘talk of the White House,’ source says
Donald Trump shared the letter from his wife, who has been largely praised for her efforts. While they are considered a team, Melania’s recent moves have become the “talk of the White House” as the power dynamic of their relationship appears to have shifted, the Daily Mail, quoting a source, reported.
“Behind closed doors, Trump has, for decades, regarded his wife as a top confidante and counsellor,” Kellyanne Conway, his 2016 campaign manager and senior counselor, told the Daily Mail. “Whether as an international business mogul, or TV star, or leader of the free world, it is Melania’s opinion that he has consistently sought.”
A second source told the Daily Mail that many within the White House have been talking about how Melania is stepping up.
“It’s certainly the talk of the White House. It makes you wonder: what’s changed behind closed doors? Are we witnessing a breaking of ranks?” the source told the paper.
A third source stated that Donald Trump possibly could be approaching his wife for more advice and thoughts because of his age.
”There is a possibility that [Trump] is reaching for Melania for both emotional and physical stability,” the source said. “The president is getting older. His gait is not as steady.”
