Viral Video Of Melania Walking Away From Trump As Soon As Her Duties Ended Says It All

Viral Video Of Melania Walking Away From Trump As Soon As Her Duties Ended Says It All
ABC News

As Democratic President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris have taken office, scores of people have expressed joy at the idea of moving on and leaving former Republican President Donald Trump in the past.

And that group seems to include former First Lady Melania Trump too, if the last bit of footage of the Trumps as the First Couple is any indicator.


Instead of pausing to wave at the cameras with her husband during their final photo op, the former First Lady simply walked away without a moment's hesitation, ignoring everyone—her husband included.

And the clip has the internet screaming.

The moment was captured just after Air Force One landed in Palm Beach, Florida near the Trumps' Mar-a-Lago resort, where they will live now that their term is over.

It was, perhaps, a fitting coda to Donald Trump's Presidency.

After becoming the first President in American history to skip the inauguration of his successor, Trump wanted to create a spectacle by drawing a huge crowd to attend his departure from joint base Andrews after leaving the White House. He even went so far as to allow each ticket holder to bring five guests to the event.

Instead, virtually no one showed.

CNN's Jim Acosta called the crowd, which included Trump's family, five White House staffers, former Press Secretary Sean Spicer and the usual phalanx of security and news media, "definitely the smallest crowd size of the Trump presidency." Even Trump's own Vice President Mike Pence opted instead to go where the real power was, Joe Biden's inauguration.

So what better ending for that embarrassing non-spectacle than the former First Lady, having swapped the somber black suit she wore at Andrews for a flashy Gucci caftan, sauntering off the plane and disappearing out of frame without even acknowledging her husband's existence?

And on Twitter, people relished the moment with jubilant schadenfreude.










In his final speech, Trump vowed that we'd still be seeing more of him in the future, and he has hinted both at a second presidential run in 2024 and at starting a new third political party.

It seems perhaps he'll be flying solo on those ventures if his final moments as President are any indication.

Woman Says What We're All Thinking About Trump Deploying ICE To Airports In Blistering Interview

A woman interviewed at Newark Liberty International Airport in New Jersey has gone viral for her response to reporters who asked for her thoughts about President Donald Trump's announcement that he would deploy ICE agents to U.S. airports amid a partial government shutdown that has caused exceptionally long delays at TSA lines nationwide.

ICE agents are still getting paid during the shutdown, unlike TSA agents, who are currently working unpaid and struggling amid the affordability crisis. News outlets have confirmed ICE agents have been deployed in airports that serve Democratic strongholds, particularly John F. Kennedy and LaGuardia Airports (New York), O'Hare International Airport (Chicago), and others.

Stephen Miller Caught On Camera Letting Out Heavy Sigh As Trump Tries To Justify Iran War

White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller was caught on camera letting out a heavy sigh as President Donald Trump spoke at a Memphis Safe Task Force roundtable in Tennessee about his ever-changing justifications for going to war with Iran.

A WSMV 4 Nashville broadcast showed Miller briefly turning his head and letting out a sigh as Trump described Iran’s missile capabilities as “growing so fast” that the U.S. needed to act before it became “virtually impossible to stop them.” Miller then composed himself and faced forward again toward the president, who was seated at center stage.

Video Of ICE Detaining Sobbing Mom At San Francisco Airport As Her Young Daughter Watched Has People Seeing Red

MAGA Republican President Donald Trump's administration is coming under fire again over White nationalist White House advisor Stephen Miller's immigration guidance.

Campaigning on a promise to deport violent criminals, the Trump administration has instead become the violent (often masked) aggressors that Americans fear. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) employees have repeatedly targeted individuals without warrants or just cause based solely on racial profiling, denied people's constitutional rights, and killed people in their detention centers and on the streets with impunity.

The “South Side” singer didn’t hold back in his critique:
