Melania Trump to tell her story in ‘intimate’ memoir

Former first lady Melania Trump has a memoir coming out this fall, “Melania,” billed by her office as “a powerful and inspiring story of a woman who has carved her own path, overcome adversity and defined personal excellence.” It’s the first memoir by Trump, who has been mostly absent as her husband, former President Donald Trump, seeks to return to the White House.

‘Melania’ will be released by Skyhorse Publishing, which has published such Donald Trump supporters as former New York City Mayor Rudolph Giuliani and attorney Alan Dershowitz.

Skyhorse also has worked with third-party candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and former Trump insider Michael Cohen, who later became one of his harshest critics. Some Skyhorse books include forewords by Trump ally Steve Bannon.

Melania Trump’s memoir was announced Thursday by her office, which neither provided a specific release date nor mentioned whether it would come out before Election Day in November.

Trump has been the subject of other books, including one by former adviser Stephanie Winston Wolkoff, but she has never told her own story at length before.

President Joe Biden mumbled his way through an 11-minute farewell address to the nation and claimed he could have served another four years if he wanted to.

Biden, 81, spoke quietly, at times haltingly, and his voice was scratchy as he explained his stunning decision not to seek reelection.

The President said he had chosen to ‘pass the torch’ to Vice President Kamala Harris because it was time for ‘younger voices’ and he believed that would ‘unite’ the country and ‘save’ democracy.

Biden looked intently into the camera during the primetime address for which he was seated behind the Resolute Desk in the Oval Office.

He said: ‘I believe my record as president, my leadership in the world, my vision for America’s future, all merited a second term.

‘But nothing, nothing, can come in the way of saving our democracy, and that includes personal ambition, so I decided the best way forward is to pass the torch to a new generation.’

He added: ‘There is a time and a place for long years of experience in public life. There’s also a time and a place for new voices, fresh voices. Yes, younger voices.’

Biden did not address questions over his own age, health and mental acuity, which have plagued his presidency from the start.

Doubts about his ability to do the job intensified following a disastrous debate performance last month, which shocked senior Democrats into calling for him to leave the 2024 presidential race.

Republicans slammed Joe Biden’s address explaining why he decided to cancel his reelection bid, saying the president should have given up the position much sooner since he ‘hasn’t been running the show.’

President Biden addressed the nation from the Oval Office Wednesday evening to explain his rationale for suddenly dropping out of the presidential race on Sunday after weeks of pressure from Democratic allies like Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., and Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y.

His speech was the first direct address to the American people he has delivered since dropping out of the 2024 election and since being diagnosed with COVID one week ago.

During the address, he said he believed ‘fresh voices’ and ‘younger voices’ are better suited to run the country, address its many concerns and coalesce the country around a capable candidate.

Republicans, meanwhile, called the speech a cop out, with Rep. Tim Burchett, R-Tenn., saying ‘It’s very evident to me that he hasn’t been running the show for quite some time.’

‘Everybody knows about it,’ he continued.

Liberals fawned over President Biden’s farewell address on Wednesday night with one political fanboy barely able to speak while holding back tears.

On CNN, progressive fanboy Van Jones was overcome with emotion as he waxed poetic about his ‘hero’ Joe Biden.

‘The kid with a stutter did good. He did good. That’s a good man,’ Jones said, referring to Biden’s childhood struggles with speech.

Senior Democrats, including  Vice President Kamala Harris and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, thanked Biden for his service, hailing him as a ‘great American president’ who demonstrated ‘wisdom’ and ‘magnificent leadership’.

But on Trump Force One, the unimpressed former president simply grimaced while the image of a befuddled Biden played on TV in the background.

‘Crooked Joe Biden’s Oval Office speech was barely understandable, and sooo bad!’ Donald Trump wrote on Truth Social.
