Ex-President Donald Trump is always in the news, whether it be for his political campaign or his wife staying away from the public spotlight. Melania Trump has been largely absent from Donald’s campaign rallies too. This has resulted in rumors that the two might be feuding.
Meanwhile, Kari Lake, who, like Donald, alleged that her Arizona governor race was rigged, spent some time at Mar-a-Lago last year with Donald. This might be reportedly creating some discomfort for Melania.
He added, “But stories about Melania Trump, I mean, really get kind of scrutinized because he has to see her.” The reporter also noted that Donald and Melania frequently have dinners, and it’s clear that Melania and her team are very aware of the headlines—this one didn’t sit well with her.
Meanwhile, at a recent rally in Tucson, Arizona, Donald gave a new nickname to Kari Lake, praising her as tough on border issues and an outstanding individual. Lake is aiming for the Arizona Senate seat held by Kyrsten Sinema this November.
Trump said, “She’s tough on the border so if you don’t mind I’m going to call her Border Kari Lake. From now on it’s Border Kari Lake. She’s a fantastic person, I’ve known her a long time, I was one of the early people that endorsed her and I’ll tell you she is tough, tough, tough on the border and you know let’s think it over.”
As reported by Newsweek, Trump later returned to the nickname during his speech and said, “Border Kari Lake, thank you, thank you border Kari. I’m giving her a take, you know when I give people takes it stays. But that’s a good one, she’s going to be great.”
Earlier, when the rumors about Donald and Lake started to spread last year, the senior adviser for Lake stated that such allegations were ridiculous. The statement read, “Kari Lake often speaks at events all over the country in support of America First candidates and organizations; and when she does have the honor of being invited to speak at the beautiful Mar-a-Lago, she overnights at Hilton properties in Palm Beach with her loving husband of 25 years.”
Lake’s alleged visits to Mar-a-Lago occurred several months after Trump officially began his bid for the 2024 presidency and after insiders disclosed that Lake was trying to secure a position as his vice president.
