Former first lady Melania Trump admitted she’s worried about her husband former President Trump's safety in the final weeks leading up to the November election and blamed Democrats for creating a "toxic atmosphere."
"I think, you know, when they call him, he's a threat to democracy, let's ask ourselves who is really a threat to democracy. They are ongoing with lawfare against the former president, as well as, you know, trying to get him off of the voting ballots and trying to silence him," she said Tuesday on "The Five."
"So, yes, of course, I was always afraid [of] what can happen and that they continue with that kind of language [that] is just – it's a toxic, toxic atmosphere."
Former President Trump has faced two assassination attempts on his life. The first was in Butler, Pa., in July when would-be assassin Thomas Matthew Crooks fired shots that grazed his ear. The second came in September when suspected would-be assassin Ryan Routh was spotted at the 2024 GOP presidential nominee's golf course in West Palm Beach, Fla., allegedly poking a rifle out of the tree line near where Trump was playing golf.
Besides reflecting on the danger surrounding her husband, Melania Trump also opened up about her priorities and goals should she return to the White House next year and vowed to continue her "Be Best" and "Fostering the Future" initiatives for children
