A Most Sensitive Subject in the White House: Where Is Melania?

Anonymous
A gift link to this dishy article about the missing first lady: https://www.nytimes.com/2025/05/07/us/politics/white-house-melania-absence.html?unlocked_article_code=1.Fk8.8Qq9.8nLYoyDxTF57&smid=url-share

There is one very disturbing paragraph in here - saying Trump is apparently planning to pave over the Rose Garden:

During the first Trump term, Mrs. Trump replanted and restored the Rose Garden. This term, the president plans to pave over it to turn it into a patio so he can entertain al fresco. Mrs. Trump was initially bothered by her husband’s plan, according to two people briefed on the matter. She has since been assured the rose bushes themselves will be left alone.


And here we thought it was bad enough when ol Lady Fook Christmas just decided to pull out the beautiful plantings to turn it into a bare lawn. Really showed us, it can always get worse.

Maybe he will pave it in gold.

Maybe she actually has one tiny decent bone in her plastic surgery body/face and wants to save her son from her husband's reputation and is staying as far from trump and his WH goon staff and SS Reichfuhrers Bondi, Homan, Rubio, et al

Alternatively, and most likely she is renegotiating her prenup for the tenth time.

It's probably because she's fed up with this whole circus.

This is OP - and I think she just doesn't like him much so she's not around. I don't think she's some secret resistance ally or anything.

This. She will fly in for an important event, but otherwise has zero desire to spend time in DC. Her kid is in NYC, her social circle is in Palm Beach.

A key tidbit from the article:

“But two people with knowledge of Mrs. Trump’s schedule said she had spent fewer than 14 days at the White House since her husband was inaugurated 108 days ago. Others say even that is a generous estimate.”

What social circle? Do you know of her having even a single friend? I think her only pal is the SS agent she's known to be "friendly" with.

I don’t care where Melania is. She’s a person who married a man who wanted to be/is President but who famously personally has no interest in the political arena and steps aside to let him do his job while she lives her life. Her choice. I prefer that over Jill Biden who was running interference for her obviously senile husband and was knee deep in his every single move as she covered up his dementia from the entire country. Was she acting President during Joe’s term? Who was, because I actually really want to know. It’s very interesting why no one asks these questions but yet are concerned about Melania. Thank God she minds her own business, has no interest in any power and has zero interest in ever entering the political arena as a candidate herself. I think it’s refreshing.

No one is surprised. We told ya’ll she wouldn’t be around except for key events. She wasn’t from the campaign and only did half the expected responsibilities the first time.

She doesn’t want to do it. Fine.

The funniest part is that she wanted to spend the remainder of her birthday without him.

What she should obviously be doing is round the clock preparations for the G7

She’s fulfilled her duties for Putin now. She can stop pretending.

Apparently, she’s very close to her sister, who she brought over through chain migration along with her parents. The sister seems to be living in a Trump property with no indication that she is employed.

“The first lady has remained close to her older sister Ines throughout her life, as she lived just a few blocks away from the family in a $2 million apartment in the Trump Park Avenue property. She was Melania's maid of honor, moving to New York so they could be close together.

Ines is incredibly private, although she reportedly had aspirations to be a fashion designer in the 90s that she struggled to see through.”
