Over the last weekend, President Trump and his wife, Melania, held a fundraiser for his presidential campaign in Mar-a-Lago, raising $50 million in the process.
The event was a beaming success, and it’s been reported that Melania herself played a key role in that achievement.

According to sources at Page Six, “ Melania Trump emerged as the main star at the Republican fund-raiser at John Paulson’s $100 million house in Palm Beach.”
The source added, “Melania enjoys being a hostess . . . She’s very supportive of her husband’s campaign and as we get closer to the final months, you can expect to see her more at key events.”
“The former first lady, who usually appears quite serious in photographs, seemed to never stop smiling Saturday night and was charming and talkative to all the guests . . . She’s ready to be first lady again and clearly enjoyed the evening.”
Ever since the event, many have taken to social media to voice their excitement at seeing the First Lady more often as of late.

It will be exciting to see Melania on the campaign trail.
The financial success of this recent event and others will surely help her husband secure his spot in the Oval Office later this year.
ABC News reported on the recent fundraiser’s success:
For the second time this election cycle, former first lady Melania Trump was publicly seen joining the former president for a political occasion after she was last seen with her husband publicly at a polling location in Palm Beach on Florida’s primary election day.
The fundraiser, hosted by billionaire John Paulson, has brought in more than $50 million for the Trump campaign and the Republican Party, according to the organizers, which would eclipse President Joe Biden’s fundraiser with former Presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton in New York last weekend, where they said they raised $26 million.
Trump spoke to donors about tax cuts, border security, “energy independence,” eliminating President Joe Biden’s electric vehicle mandate, and protecting Israel, according to a campaign official and others familiar with his remarks.
Trump delivered a speech of about 45 minutes in front of more than 100 guests before they all dined together. After, he again spoke at length and introduced some of his close allies and former 2024 contenders.
