Melania Trump turns Fox News into the Home Shopping Network

Melania Trump might not return to the White House with her husband in January, but she will happily go to New York to work a seasonal grift. The returning first lady used Fox News’ airwaves Friday to hawk her book, some Christmas ornaments—and gaudy jewelry, of course.

After hyping the sit-down as Melania’s “first interview since winning the election,” the braintrust at “Fox & Friends” chatted with the president-elect’s aloof spouse before segueing into the hard sell. 

“We're not too far away from Christmas. And as it turns out, your book is on The New York Times Best Seller lists,” host Steve Doocy said. “It's also a fantastic last-minute gift. It's the perfect size to put in a big stocking. It's a great stocking stuffer.”

Released during the 2024 election cycle, Melania’s memoir was an excuse to lazily campaign  for her husband while promoting her wares with strange videos—all while unabashedly capitalizing on the assassination attempt against her husband.
