Why didn't Melania Trump join POTUS and family for Ireland trip? Donald Trump says ‘Maybe I’m not that…’

During his visit to Ireland, Donald Trump humorously explained why his wife Melania did not join him on the trip. He told attendees at the US Ambassador's Residence in Dublin that his wife was "watching right now" and had informed him that she did not find the seven-hour flight worthwhile, stating, "Maybe, I’m not that friendly."

Despite Trump's offer to have Melania accompany him by wearing a "Make America Great Again" hat, she declined, sending her regards instead. The President's absence of his wife from significant events, including the recent Republican midterm convention in Dallas, has been noted. However, upon meeting with the Irish Taoiseach, Trump expressed his desire for a united Ireland.
