Melania Trump takes part in campaign event that barely drowns out hotel lobby muzak

Melania Trump returned to the political scene with a low-key solo appearance for Log Cabin Republicans at Mar-a-Lago.

The former first lady had previously joined her husband earlier this month at a high-dollar fundraiser in Palm Beach, but she stepped out without him Saturday at the headliner for the LGBTQ conservative group and was greeted with polite but subdued applause, reported The Daily Beast.

“Melania is a very private figure, and her public appearances never disappoint,” said Sophia Hutchins, a Trump 2024 surrogate and convention delegate.

She was joined by Donald Trump attorney Alina Habba, campaign senior adviser Lynne Patton and Caitlyn Jenner, and she was introduced by Ric Grenell, the former U.S. ambassador to Germany and briefly the acting director of national intelligence.

“I’ve been around Melania for over a decade, socially, and obviously since her husband entered politics,” said Hutchins, who is also Jenner's manager. “She’s always had that mystique about her. But whenever she gets into a room with people… she is electric, and we saw that on Saturday night.”

“She was truly electric,” Hutchins added. “Happy, energetic and, I think, quite frankly, thrilled to be there with a group of people there to support her.”

A source familiar with the planning told The Daily Beast that only about 60 people were present, including staff, and women made up more than half the crowd, who were notably subdued in video clips from the event.

"Throughout the entire clip," The Beast reported. "The crowd is so quiet that you can hear some version of hotel lobby muzak."
