Melania Trump Slams Democrats For Trying To ‘Silence’ Husband With ‘Lawfare’: ‘Who Is Really A Threat To Democracy?’

Former First Lady Melania Trump condemned what she described as a Democratic “lawfare” campaign against her husband, former President Donald Trump, designed to “silence” him.

Melania Trump appeared on Fox News’ The Five Tuesday night promoting her upcoming memoir, Melania, when she expressed concerns about his safety in the face of rising political tensions.

The remarks were prompted by the segment’s opening question from co-host Jeanine Pirro, who accused Democrats of “negative rhetoric” about the former president.

Pirro began: “I have so many questions, but I will start with one that is clearly serious. The former president has survived two assassination attempts. And Kamala’s camp just issued yesterday that they are going to go more negative. The Biden-Harris team continues with the negative rhetoric, whether it’s ‘Hitler’ or he’s ‘tearing down democracy.’ Are you worried about your husband’s safety in the next 29 days?”

Melania responded: “Of course I do. When they call him a threat to democracy, let’s ask ourselves, who is really a threat to democracy? They’re ongoing with lawfare against the former president, as well as trying to get him off the voting ballot, and trying to silence him.”

She continued: “Yes, of course, I was always afraid of what could happen. Continuing with that kind of language, it is toxic, a toxic atmosphere.”
