Melania Trump was greeted with skepticism on Wednesday following her prediction of what a second term for her husband, former President Donald Trump, would mean for America.
“I support my husband’s decision to run for president of this wonderful Nation,” the former first lady said in a statement shared with far-right Breitbart News. It’s a stark contrast to reports last week that she was fed up with being in the news spotlight.
“His achievements during his administration had a great effect on all of us, and he can lead us toward success and prosperity again,” Melania Trump added. “I await the day when my husband returns to lead an America that is characterized by peace, love, and security.”
Melania’s statement to Breitbart today: “I support my husband’s desire to run for president. His achievements during his Administration had a great effect on all of us. I await the day when my husband returns to lead an America that is characterized by love, peace & security.”

The prospect of “peace, love, and security” under Donald Trump — whose four-year stream of ugly and divisive rhetoric culminated in the Jan. 6 Capitol riot — raised eyebrows on Twitter:
Because “peace, love & security” is how everyone would describe America during his 1st term😂😂😂😂😂😂😂.

A man driven by chaos, hate and insecurity will lead us to peace, love, and security.

Trump will campaign on hate, grievance, victimhood and revenge.

I’m not interested in their definitions of peace love and security.

I guess Melania missed all the lies, insults, name-calling, racism, and sexism. Plus the insurrection and the espionage.
“Had a great effect on all of us.” Hardly a ringing endorsement.

The words love, peace and security should never be associated with Trump or anything he does. Melania is complicit and it comes as no surprise that she supports her criminal husbands choice to run again. #TrumpisaNationalDisgrace https://t.co/3cKpGAbNyw

Love, peace and security from Don and Melania? Now that is a fantasy .
— Jim Mounteer (@JimMounteer1) November 17, 2022
The most divisive president in America’s history will bring love, peace and security. Haha, Melania.

She plagiarizing Elvis Costello now?

Love, peace and security? Hey, Melania... I've never felt so unloved, unsafe, and chaotic as I did, while your lunatic family occupied OUR house...
