Sarah Ellison, Former Speaker Edition Vanity Fairand a columnist for several major media outlets, wrote an article about the first lady of the United States, Melania Trump. This material provoked such stormy discussions that it forced the US President himself to give a public answer (albeit a brief one on Twitter, but still!). What are the secret details of the life of Melania Trump told the general public Allison?
The article begins with a detailed study of the environment in which Melania lived in 2014, when Donald Trump was about to run for the presidency of the United States. Allison writes that Trump changed his mind all the time. Roger Stone, Trump's adviser, referred to by the journalist, claims that it was Melania who recommended her husband to either run or abandon this idea for good. His wife's dissatisfaction with her husband's unstable position motivated him to participate in the elections. Nevertheless, they say, Melania herself was not too keen on her part of the party - the role of the first lady. In 2015, at a party, the former wife of President Ivan overheard conversations about Trump's candidacy for the post, and said: “But his wife does not know how to speak beautifully, does not attend events, and does not seem to want to participate at all” (quote New York Daily News).
"The most untrained first lady"
The journalist spoke with White House officials, including current and former advisers, to learn more about the Trumps, including interviewing their friends. Sarah calls Mrs. Trump the “most unprepared” first lady who does not suit this role, and refers to family friends who told her that Melania “did not want it”.
In the east wing, the monastery of Melania, there are only 9 employees, almost 2 times less than the wives of Obama and Bush. Most of the life of the first lady is secret from prying eyes. Here is her own office and the premises of her office. At the same time, the eastern wing is open to outsiders on all working days, the tours in it begin at half past eight in the morning and last at least until lunchtime. Former employees of the eastern wing who served there under Barack Obama say that permanent employees love Melania Trump very much, calling her a sensitive and cautious woman.
Melania's White House apartments feature elegant antique furniture and look “gorgeous and stunning,” a family friend told the reporter. Whereas Michelle Obama's cabinet was characterized as informal and friendly. According to Melania's relatives, during a period when Trump publicly boasted of his harassment of women, and her nude photos were published by famous magazines, she was busy protecting Barron's son from rumors and gossip. Also, according to insiders, she is annoyed by a whole escort of personal protection, which is always outside the door.
"They live separately, but he adores her"
Ellison also writes that with all the virtues of Melania, she does not speak English very well, and never craved fame, did not rotate in American secular circles. And the stress associated with her new position is hard to hide. The fact that Melania seems distanced from her spouse is not supported by her friends: in their opinion, she does not oppose him at all. Each first lady usually chose a topic for her job - for Michelle Obama, it was the health and education of girls, Laura Bush dealt with the problem of literacy, and Melania chose cyberbullying. Given Trump's attitude to Twitter, where he often speaks very sharply, insiders believe that the topic could not have been suggested by the president.
After the pictures and videos of Melania frowning and Donald trying to take her hand, some family friends told Allison that Melania and Donald had been living “practically separate” for a long time. At the same time, everyone emphasizes that Donald adores his wife and listens to her very much.
"Don't look for a conspiracy theory, it's not there"
The former owner of a model agency, one of those who gave Melania a start in the model world, Paolo Zampolli, in an interview about the first lady, said that the media are too harsh towards this woman. He claims that the rumors about the misfortune of Melania are not true, since she is now the most famous person in the world. And recommended not to look for a conspiracy theory in the behavior of Melania and her environment. However, Zampolli said that Melania is getting used to his position and is imbued with it.
Sarah Ellison herself at the end of her article summarizes: perhaps Melania Trump could live peacefully in luxury in Manhattan, and instead was locked in the same building with a nuclear briefcase, the button of which, quite possibly, she herself wants to press.
