Melania Trump, former First Lady of the United States, made an unexpected comment in a recent interview.

She stated that the 2017 presidential transition, when she and Donald Trump entered the White House, was particularly complicated because the Obama administration «withheld key information.»

The relationship between the Obamas and the Trumps had already shown tensions from the start.

During the Inauguration Day in 2017, an awkward exchange occurred when Melania handed Michelle Obama a gift wrapped in a blue Tiffany box.

Michelle appeared perplexed and quickly handed the package to an assistant, as reported by DailyMail.

This generated comments on social media and symbolized the cold interaction between the two families.

Ahead of Donald Trump’s second inauguration, scheduled for January 20, it has been confirmed that Michelle Obama will not attend the event.

A decision that breaks with the tradition of support among former First Ladies.

According to close sources, Michelle wishes to remain true to her principles and avoid feigning affinities.

“Michelle has never been fake or pretended to be. Her absence is deliberate and sends a clear message,” a close associate of the former First Lady stated.

Preparations for Returning to the White House

Melania Trump also shared that her return to the White House this time will be more organized, as she now has prior knowledge of the presidential residence.

“I have already made decisions about the decor; it will be a bit different from the first time. Now everything is planned in detail,” she commented.

Moreover, Melania emphasized that she will continue to prioritize her role as a mother and wife, though she is also excited to resume her duties as First Lady.

“My priority is to serve the country and my family. I am ready for what’s coming,” she assured.
