Melania Trump, who has virtually disappeared from public life since leaving the White House with her husband, Donald Trump, has “no desire” to return to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue in 2024. That’s the point of view brutal from sources who spoke to CNN.
Melania now lives in Florida in Mar-A-Lago. Son Barron attends a nearby private school. She has made virtually no public appearances since leaving the White House and has not joined her husband in any of his recent appearances at a rally.

While Donald has made it clear that he is keeping his options open regarding whether to run again in 2024, CNN has tried to find out what was going on in the mind of the former First Lady.
“Being the first lady again is not what she wants,” said one of them, who CNN said had a close relationship with Melania during her years in the White House. “For her, it was a chapter – and it’s over, and that’s it.”
Another said: “You are not going to see her at rallies or campaign events, even though he says ‘officially’ that he is showing up again.”
It should be noted that this is not new. She made few appearances in 2016 and even fewer in 2020. So much so that an insider involved in the Trump campaign said, “We just stopped asking,” after it became clear that the answer would be almost always “No”.
Surprisingly, or not, supporters of Donald Trump’s cult don’t seem to be concerned that Melania is rarely seen by his side, with CNN speculating that they might view her silence as a sign of loyalty and obedience.
“Voter Trump is putting (Melania Trump) on a pedestal,” one of the sources said. “They are in awe of her appearance or the way she basically doesn’t express ideas or opinions, which they see as stoicism and loyalty.”
Another said Melania enjoyed no longer being closely watched by the public.
“That’s how she likes it. The more it can be private and not in the public eye, the better. “
Melania Trump’s office did not respond to a request for comment on the article.

While Melania’s lack of interest in boosting Donald’s ambitions probably doesn’t shock anyone, people still had a lot to say online.
CNN:
“Melania Trump is losing interest in public politics. “
No one cares about her, so it works.

I’m surprised she didn’t file for a divorce the second it was over.
