Former First Lady Melania Trump on Nov. 6 issued the first statement since her husband, President-elect Donald Trump, beat Vice President Kamala Harris.
“The majority of Americans have entrusted us with this important responsibility,” Melania Trump, who served as first lady from 2017 through 2021, wrote on social media. “We will safeguard the heart of our republic—freedom. I anticipate the citizens of our nation rejoining in commitment to each other and rising above ideology for the sake of individual liberty, economic prosperity, and security.
“American energy, skill, and initiative will bring together our best minds to propel our nation forward forevermore.”
The 54-year-old, a native of Slovenia, rarely appeared on the campaign trail as her husband sought a second term following his win in 2016 and loss in 2020.
In one of her rare appearances, Melania Trump told a crowd at New York’s Madison Square Garden in October that “New York City and America need their magic back.”
She said: “Let us charge together with a shared vision that builds on American greatness. Let’s seize this moment and create a country for tomorrow, the future that we deserve.”
She then introduced Trump as “our next commander-in-chief.”
Melania Trump took the stage with her husband; their son, Barron Trump; other family members; and supporters, including golfer Bryson DeChambeau, on early Nov. 5 as the former president declared victory.
