MELANIA Trump has opened her new Florida ‘office’ on the same day that Jill Biden decorated the White House lawn with Valentine’s Day hearts.
The former first lady has yet to speak to her replacement in Washington D.C., snubbing long-running tradition, say reports.
She revealed on Twitter: “Mrs. Melania Trump is announcing the opening of The Office of Melania Trump.
“Please follow this account for news and updates.”
There were no further tweets following the February 12 revelation about her ‘office’.
But Melania has thrilled fans, some of whom replied that they were ‘missing Donald‘.
And one person tweeted: “If this legit, it’s trolling at an epic level! I love it! We love you Melania!”
The surprise announcement came on the same day that Jill Biden had the North Lawn of the White House decorated for Valentine’s Day, in Washington, D.C.
Pics show red, pink and white hearts with the words unity, kindness, healing, courage, compassion and – naturally – love.
The first lady’s office said the decorations were her “surprise Valentine messages to the country”.
Journalists were told: “As you may know, the First Lady is known for her sense of humor, love of surprises, and celebrating traditions, especially with her family.
“Valentine’s Day has always been one of her favorite holidays.
“Sending messages of healing, unity, hope and compassion, this is her Valentine to the country.”
Melania is bitter about the positive publicity surrounding Jill since she and President Joe Biden moved into the White House, according to CNN and the Independent newspaper in the UK.
The Trumps have settled at their plush Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, Florida, since losing the 2020 presidential election.
But if recent reports are correct, while her husband has been hitting the golf course, Melania has settled into a dull routine over the past month.
“She goes to the spa, has lunch, goes to the spa (again) and has dinner with Donald on the patio,” one source told CNN, adding, “rinse and repeat. Every day.”
A second source spilled to the broadcaster that Melania is known to visit the spa twice in a 24-hour period, for massages, nail care or facial treatments.
Her “daily schedule has nothing to do with politics”, CNN adds.
Melania is also, say media reports, ‘ignoring’ the ex-president’s second impeachment trial.
Yet Donald Trump “feels happier” since leaving the White House and is glad he was banned from Twitter, his top aide has said.
Former campaign strategist Jason Miller said the ex-President is “truly relaxed” for the first time in years, despite the impeachment trial in the Senate.
“The president was in a very good mood upon leaving and there were some very tender moments with his family,” Miller told the UK’s Sunday Times.
Miller said the mood at Mar-a-Lago continues to be sunny as the ex-President plays golf with friends and plots with a tight circle of aides.
The pal also told the paper: “The president has said he feels happier now than he’s been in some time.
“He’s said that not being on social media, and not being subject to the hateful echo chamber that social media too frequently becomes, has actually been good.
“That’s something the first lady has backed up as well. She has said she loves it, that he’s much happier and is enjoying himself much more.”
