“I think we’ve achieved a lot in the Trump administration’s four years,” Melania Trump told Fox in an interview Sunday morning, adding “Never Say Never” when asked if she could live in the White House again if her husband is running for re-election.
During the interview, Trump discussed what she called her “NFT projects.” The former first lady has designed and released for sale on her personal website several irreplaceable tokens, which are digital collectibles certified by a blockchain, which is often a work of digital art. All of the items Trump sells can only be purchased through cryptocurrency, and the first batch of items put up for sale earlier this year failed to reach the desired $ 250,000 cash threshold for an initial offer.
The latest NFT, titled “The MetaRose”, is a blue rose that comes to life. Usually, most modern first ladies set up foundations or organizations – usually non-profit – to contribute to initiatives they started during their tenure in the White House. Trump said again during the interview that “part of the proceeds from the sale of NFT – which are listed at a price of $ 150 each – will go to support foster children.
CNN has repeatedly sought clarity on how much of the sales will be or have been dedicated to charities and to which charities, and has not received a response. Trump has never said publicly how much money he has raised from selling these digital items, which he has been selling since late last year.
Trump discussed the fact that she was not featured on the cover of Vogue magazine during her stay at the White House, a decade-long tradition that was revived last year when the magazine put First Lady Jill Biden on its cover.
“They are biased and have likes and dislikes, and that’s so obvious,” she said of why the fashion magazine never focuses on her because she has other first ladies.
Trump also assessed the state of the United States under President Joe Biden, saying, “I think it’s sad to see what happens if you really look at it.”
“I think a lot of people are struggling and suffering, as well as what’s happening in the world. So it’s very sad to see and I hope it changes quickly, “Trump said.
