Melania Trump is back, set to hold event for Log Cabin Republicans

Melania Trump, who has been largely absent from the campaign trail during her husband’s presidential run, is back on the GOP fundraising circuit.

The former first lady is set to hold her first major political event of the year — a fundraiser for the Log Cabin Republicans on April 20 at Mar-a-Lago, the Palm Beach, Florida, club where she and former president Donald Trump live, according to an invitation obtained by POLITICO.

Melania Trump has long maintained a close relationship with the Log Cabin Republicans, which describes itself as “ the nation’s largest Republican organization dedicated to representing LGBT conservatives and allies.” In 2021, she was the special guest at a dinner the organization hosted at Mar-a-Lago, where she was given an award. The former president himself spoke at an event the organization hosted at the club in 2022.

The April event is the launch for the organization’s “Road to Victory” program, which plans to target voters in swing states.

Trump gave her the price she asked for to help him in his campaign.

She has done this every step of the way since he entered politics.
She only moved to DC when he "won" the WH after he re-negotiated her pre-nap.
