Melania Trump expected to skip Wednesday White House meeting with Jill Biden

Source: cnn



Kristen Holmes Betsy Klein Updated 7:03 PM EST, Mon November 11, 2024


Washington CNN — Melania Trump is not expected to attend the traditional White House meeting with first lady Jill Biden, sources familiar with her plans said.

It’s a decision that underscores Melania Trump’s long-held willingness to buck tradition as she prepares to retake the high-profile – but unelected – role of first lady, one with no manual and an automatic global platform.

The sources cited a prior scheduling conflict for the former first lady related to her newly released memoir. One source said the decision had not been finalized.

Jill Biden extended Melania Trump the customary invitation last week as her husband also invited the president-elect to the Oval Office, a symbolic gesture to show the country and the world that there will be a peaceful transition of power – and an implicit rebuke of Donald Trump, who refused Joe Biden the same meeting in 2020 as he contested that election’s results. The two are set to meet Wednesday at 11 a.m., according to the White House.

The American people are an inconvenience. It will be more of not showing up, not being able to speak languages she claims to speak, and not giving a fuck about Christmas.

Frankly, I don't care. The less we see of her the better.

She lives in NYC with her son Barron who attends college there.

Trump will have to pay her a great deal of money to move to DC and to attend any events.

Obviously no one offered to pay her to attend the WH meeting with Jill Biden.

Democrats stick to tradition and invite the seditious clowns to the White House. I kinda hoped that Biden, who is now finished with elected office, would just say “fuck off” to the Trumps, but Biden is a better person than I am!

As for Melania, I can just hear her saying, “Vat?? I am not going back to Hootersville and visiting that dump, the White House. I stay in NYC where I must vatch out for my now grown son.” Fuck her, too!

You know ... those women who travelled with him and pretended to be Melania, so Chump wouldn't have to admit that his wife refused to go on trips with him. Usually they were tall with long brown hair (like hers) and they always wore big dark sunglasses.

The fake Melanias could only be seen from a distance, they usually smiled at him, held his hand, and they never spoke to the press. They weren't too difficult to spot.
