Her tweet didn't seem to go over well.

So, here’s something we don’t see every day—Melania Trump stepping into the spotlight. Now, Melania isn’t exactly known for making public statements or big media appearances. In fact, she usually keeps to herself. But lately, she’s been showing up in the headlines for, well, selling random stuff. And let’s be clear—it’s not just a jewelry line she launched earlier this year. She’s also got a new book coming out on October 1st. Yes, like her husband, Melania’s got her side gigs, and they’re bringing her back into public view.

But here’s where it gets interesting. It wasn’t her book or jewelry line that caused a stir this time. Nope. It was a seemingly random tweet about New York City that got people talking. Melania, who rarely tweets, posted a nostalgic-looking image of the city, and naturally, people took notice. Given how quiet she usually is, folks couldn’t help but react.

 

The tweet has sparked a wave of memes, with many comparing her to Nicole Kidman in those AMC theater ads. Some people are even calling her “Melania Bradshaw,” as in Carrie Bradshaw from Sex and the City. Pretty wild, right? And for anyone who’s ever lived in New York, the image feels oddly relatable. Twitter users jumped on the bandwagon, with one person saying it’s exactly how they feel “buzzed, riding in an Uber across the Williamsburg Bridge at 2 a.m.”

But here’s the kicker—remember, her husband has repeatedly bashed New York, calling it crime-ridden and dirty. Not too long ago, Trump said, “Today, you walk down the street, you get mugged or shot.” So, what gives? Does Melania feel differently about the city? It sure seems that way.

 

So, in typical Trump family fashion, we have Melania quietly launching businesses while simultaneously sending mixed signals about their relationship with New York. Is this tweet a reflection of her true feelings about the city, or just part of a PR strategy? One thing’s for sure—it’s got people talking about Melania again, and that’s probably exactly what she wants.
