Melania claims husband Donald Trump wants to make women’s ‘life better’, Internet says she’s ‘in denial’
PALM BEACH, FLORIDA: Melania Trump, in an appeal to women voters, claimed her husband, Donald Trump, wanted to make their life "better, safe, prosperous".
The former first lady's attempt to boost the GOP presidential nominee's support among the female demographic came days after the revelation of her pro-choice stance.
In a leaked copy of her forthcoming memoir 'Melania,' the ex-model brought into light her support for abortion rights despite the contradicting Republican conservative ideology.

“He is passionate about this country, passionate about women and men as well, everybody.
He wants to make their life, better, safe, prosperous.

In an interview with Maria Bartiromo on Fox News 'Sunday Morning Futures' on October 6, Melania was asked to convey her message to the women who have a picture of what Trump is.
The former first lady admitted that for some, her husband would come off as a "tough" person, but he wanted to "make their life better," according to Newsweek.
"They need to know that he is passionate about this country, passionate about women and men as well. He wants to make their life better, safe, prosperous," the ex-model-turned-author said.
"He's warm. He loves people and I understand that maybe sometimes they see him tough and some tweets maybe they would not like it and they didn't like it. He only wants good for this country," Melania added.
According to a copy of her memoir obtained by The Guardian, the real estate mogul's wife stood firm on abortion, emphasizing women's right to have autonomy in having children without governmental intervention or pressure.
During the Fox News interview, Melania claimed her husband was aware of her stance from the beginning. Last week, Trump also asserted he advised his wife to write what she believed regarding reproductive rights.
Abortion is one of the central issues of the 2024 presidential election, being the first White House race since the US Supreme Court overturned Roe v Wade in 2022.
It ended 50-year-long legal protection for anyone seeking to undergo the procedure, leaving the right to form abortion laws to individual states. However, amid growing concerns about a federal ban on abortion, Trump has repeatedly vowed he would not sign the bill if elected.
Internet ridicules Melania Trump for saying Donald Trump wants to make women's lives 'better'
Netizens derided Melania Trump for trying to woo women voters by saying her husband and former president Donald Trump is a person looking out for their safety.
"Melania is in denial," a user commented below Newsweek's report.
"Sorry Melania. I don't think woman are buying it! Too little too late! Don't you find it peculiar that she released this book a month before the election! LOL!" another wrote.
"That's not contradictory at all......." added a third user.
"She's got some serious gaslighting going on," read a fourth response.
"For a person who seems to have a reasonable level of innate intelligence (she speaks like 4 or 5 languages), she sure is clueless... every time she says something, you just have to scratch your head, and think "Have you MET your husband?"..." someone else opined.
"Sounds like a campaign speech idk if i buy it tho. politics is just messy and everyone says they wanna make things better, but actions speak louder than words ya know?" an individual wrote on X.
"I wonder how much she’s getting paid for these interviews," another chimed in.
