With the inauguration dominating headlines the world over, allies of the new POTUS Donald Trump have also taken up plenty of column inches. And some surprising names emerged in the months leading up to the announcement of Trump’s tenure. There was support from former pop star Holly Valance, as well as the world’s richest man, Elon Musk — who gave away millions of dollars to voters who sign his ‘free speech’ petition in a dubious scheme via his pro-Trump political action committee, America Pac. And on college campuses, young female conservatives rallied and organised groups in his support. But what of those closer to home?
While it was noted that current wife and new first lady Melania Trump was rarely seen during the campaign trail, she has confirmed she’s packed and ready to move into the White House. And she went viral when she went on Fox and Friends daily morning news show to defend him during the lead up to the result. The key line picked up? “He is not Hitler and his supporters stand behind him because they want to see the country successful. We see what kind of support he has.” It was a response to her husband’s previous false claiming that Vice President Kamala Harris called him Hitler.
