‘Some people, they see me as just the wife of the president, but I’m standing on my own two feet, independent,’ the incoming first lady declared on Fox News. Soon-to-be first lady Melania Trump insisted on Monday that she is “independent” and will stand up to her husband, saying she doesn’t always “agree with what Donald is saying” and she is more than “just the wife of the president.”.
During a friendly sitdown on her spouse’s favorite morning show Fox & Friends, the incoming first lady spent much of her time promoting an upcoming documentary on her return to the White House, which was licensed by Amazon for an eye-popping $40 million and directed by disgraced Hollywood director Brett Ratner.
The film project, which many see as a way for Amazon founder Jeff Bezos to further cozy up to MAGA, was described by Trump as an opportunity for fans who “would love to hear more from me.” She added that she told her agent to “go out and make a deal” so she could show the day-to-day routine of her return to Washington.
Asked by host Ainsley Earhardt what would be “different” this time around when she returns to the White House, Trump didn’t offer up any policy details. Instead, she noted that she was just well aware of the layout of the actual residence. “The difference is I know where I will be going, I know the rooms where we will be living. I know the process, the first time was challenging,” she said. “But this time, I have everything — I already packed, I already selected the furniture that needs to go in. So it’s very different.”.
