Melania Trump has made several appearances for her husband, former President Donald Trump, in the 2024 US presidential election campaign. Melania Trump attended the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee but did not speak. Her speech and appearance at the New York rally came as a surprise, as she was not on the pre-announced speaker list.
Melania Trump was introduced by billionaire Elon Musk and said in her opening speech: “Hello, Madison Square Garden! The undisputed industrial capital of the world, home to the giants of finance, fashion and entertainment.”
Melania Trump seemed to sympathize with the audience, describing New York as an unforgiving city and explaining that life can be like this. It’s complicated at the best of times.
She continued: “And sadly, a declining quality of life coupled with economic instability makes it difficult for business and American ingenuity to flourish among a determined American citizenry that sprints between the city’s streets and offices in pursuit of success.”
Melania Trump claimed that crime was on the rise, not just in New York, but across the country. Interestingly, the Madison Square Garden rally marks the first time that Melania Trump has spoken at a Trump event during the 2024 campaign, The New York Times reported.
“New York City and America need to bring back the magic,” Melania Trump added in her speech before welcoming Donald Trump to the stage. Let us begin together with a shared vision based on American greatness. Let us seize this moment to build a country for tomorrow, a future that we deserve.
The US presidential election is expected to conclude on November 5th, and likely result. Opinion polls predict a close race between Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris.
