The former first lady released a statement where she said that a “monster” saw her “husband as an inhuman political machine” before opening fire.
Melania, who was not at the rally when the assassination attempt occurred, watched the bullet strike her husband on television.
“When I watched that violent bullet strike my husband, Donald, I realized my life, and Barron’s life, were on the brink of devastating change. I am grateful to the brave secret service agents and law enforcement officials who risked their own lives to protect my husband,” she said in a statement.
“We all want a world where respect is paramount, family is first, and love transcends,” Melanie Trump said. “We can realize this world again. Each of us must demand to get it back.”
She urged the public to set aside political differences and reiterated that the nation should remember that behind “every single politician is a man or woman with a loving family.”
