Donald and Melania Trump were seen engaged in a heated discussion onboard Marine One, with a lip reader now disclosing the exact conversation that took place. The tense interaction was captured on Wednesday night following Trump’s appearance at the United Nations General Assembly in New York.
During the exchange, Trump, aged 79, pointed his finger at Melania, 55, in a particularly intense moment as they faced each other. The words exchanged were revealed, with Trump expressing disbelief, questioning, “it was unbelievable” and “how can you do that?”
As the couple prepared to exit the presidential helicopter, Melania appeared to have a final stern message for her husband. Lip reader Jeremy Freeman reported her saying, “Donald, look at me.”
Melania was visibly shaking her head vigorously before they both left the helicopter and walked hand in hand across the White House’s South Lawn.
This incident followed a dramatic appearance at the United Nations where an escalator malfunctioned as the couple stepped onto it. Additionally, during the president’s lengthy speech, technical difficulties arose with the teleprompter and audio equipment.
Trump was notably upset by these incidents, prompting him to call for an investigation into what he labeled as “triple sabotage.” White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt confirmed that an investigation was underway, warning of potential consequences for those involved.
Leavitt also took to social media to emphasize the need for immediate action if intentional interference from UN staffers was discovered.
Despite the challenges faced, Trump delivered a critical speech targeting the UN and global leaders, lasting significantly longer than typical addresses by world leaders. He criticized the UN’s role in conflicts, stating, “The UN is supposed to stop invasions, not create them and not finance them.”
This visit occurred shortly after Trump’s second state visit to the UK, where he and Melania were guests at Windsor Castle. During that trip, Trump’s initial reactions upon meeting Kate Middleton were revealed.
