Melania Trump to possibly pen memoir on time spent in the White House

President Trump may not be the only one in the White House cashing in with a book deal after his presidency. Sources exclusively tell Page Six that usually private Melania Trump has been taking meetings about penning a tome on her time as first lady.

“Melania is in meetings to write her White House memoir,” an insider said. “And it would be her money — a chance for her to earn on her own.” The source added, “I’m told her husband is encouraging her” to pen the book.

A book from Melania could set the record straight on some of her notable White House episodes — from that infamous “I really don’t care, do u?” jacket that she wore in 2018, to enduring a coronavirus infection.

President Trump could land a multimillion-dollar book deal himself after leaving office. (Trump has claimed his book “Trump: The Art of the Deal” is the best selling book after the Bible)
A White House rep did not get back to us.

But when they gave the cover to Stormy Daniels, "the porn hooker" she suddenly became interested in something. Come on Vogue, give Jill Biden the cover, Melania's book will be very thin without a chapter about that.

they did a story on the wife of Bashir in Syria when he was at war with his own people. They were terribly tone deaf. So i'm guessing they are shy of putting unpopular wives of controvertial politicians on the cover. Trump never got beyond 50% in the polls. He never bettered the lives of the average american. His choice. He never seemed to understand why he remained unpopular than most presidents while he gave the country to plutocrats. Michelle was on the cover but she had overwhelming popularity.

It is not surprising to have a Trump wrong on the facts. My fault for taking that as a source.

Amazing things she’s done as first escort?
What in the world will there be to write about? She’s done nothing but have her kidneys repaired or bathe her son in caviar.

That said 'snooty' publishers don't want to touch a trump book with a 10 foot pole and I don't see why they would want one from her.
