WATCH: Melania Trump Reveals Impact Of Hatred Directed Towards Her Family In Rare Interview
Former First Lady Melania Trump discussed the impact of left-wing attacks on her husband and family as a whole in a rare interview with Fox News.
Trump — who is doing a media tour to promote her highly-anticipated memoir — revealed that a charitable donation she made to provide scholarships for foster children was rejected because of her last name.
“It was all agreed that they will accept my donations for the foster students and because of the board directors, they called back, they found out that it was me, they didn’t, they said we cannot go on,” she said. The donation was made to an unnamed university after the Trump Family left the White House in 2021.
“And it’s very, very sad because who suffered? They were children from foster community. They didn’t have a scholarship that somebody would provide for them. They didn’t want to do business with me because of political affiliation, my political beliefs.
Elsewhere in the interview, Melania pushed back on common media and left-wing attacks on her husband’s character.
“What do you want to say to women who, may have a picture of President Trump in their heads, they think they know who he is. What do you want to say to them that they might not know about your husband?” asked Fox News host Maria Bartiromo.
