Melania Trump re-entered the campaign trail with a fundraising event for the Log Cabin Republicans at Mar-a-Lago.
The Tea Room of the private club in Palm Beach, Florida, hosted the sold-out event for approximately 60 guests, including prominent figures from Palm Beach and New York City’s GOP. According to sources, tickets reportedly cost up to $50,000 each, with the proceeds primarily supporting Trump and other GOP candidates in the upcoming 2024 election.
The group’s mission, as explained by a GOP source, is to educate voters in crucial swing states about President Trump’s LGBT record and his ambitions for a potential second term.
Ric Grenell, the first openly gay cabinet member and former US ambassador to Germany and director of national intelligence, is said to have introduced Mrs. Trump to the podium. An attendee noted that Grenell recognized Melania’s leadership role in an unprecedented outreach program targeting gay and lesbian voters, making it the most significant initiative of its kind by any Republican presidential candidate in American history.
Former Intrepid Museum president Bill White and his husband, Bryan Eure, served as co-chairs for the event and reportedly escorted Mrs. Trump to the room. In a statement to Page Six, White expressed his belief that Melania Trump’s decision to attend the Log Cabin Republicans’ LGBT event as her first campaign stop speaks volumes about her character and contradicts the narrative portrayed in the mainstream media.
Eure further stated that gay voters are no longer single-issue voters and expressed their appreciation for Melania Trump’s leadership and unifying message aimed at preserving the country in the upcoming election.
