Melania Trump, in a rare campaign appearance, joined her husband on the trail Monday night ahead of the Wisconsin primaries. Mrs. Trump has appeared alongside her husband in the early contest states, but has never delivered a scripted speech as she did at the Milwaukee Theater to supporters.
"I'm very proud of him. He is a hard worker, he's kind, he has a great heart, he's tough, he's smart, he's a great communicator, he's a great negotiator, he's telling the truth, he's a great leader, he's fair. As you may know by now, when you attack him, he will punch back ten times harder," Melania Trump said to applause as part of her short scripted speech. "No matter who you are, a man, or a woman, he treats everyone equal."
Looking to bounce back after a rocky week, Trump called his better half to the rescue. The 45-year-old former model of Slovenian origin is chic and stylish, but until now her public presence alongside her Republican frontrunner husband has been fleeting, including brief appearances at election watch parties. Her interviews have been limited.
But in the US state of Wisconsin, where polls show Trump trailing his arch-conservative rival Ted Cruz in the primary that the state hosts Tuesday, Melania is accompanying her husband at several campaign events.
Trump, whose apparent degrading of women and controversial remarks about Mexicans and Muslims have raised alarm bells in the Republican Party and more broadly across the American electorate, has confided that his wife has encouraged him to be "more presidential."
A CNN/ORC poll from late March showed Trump is viewed favorably by only 24 percent of registered female voters.
After his wife, Trump called upon Melissa Young -– a former Miss Wisconsin whom Trump met after she was crowned the first unanimous winner of Miss USA's Miss Congeniality award in 2005.
"If this man becomes president of the United States of America, he is going to give me the best gift ever and that is I'll know when I leave this world I will not be here to watch my son grow but I will know he is going to grow up in a country that is safe. That is what every mother wishes for," said Young, who is suffering from an inoperable illness.
Ahead of Tuesday's vote, Trump's confidence has increased the last few days.
"I really believe tomorrow we're gonna have a very, very big victory. Very, very big," he said in La Crosse, Wisconsin. "If we do well here, folks, it's over. If we don't win here. it's not over but wouldn't you like to take the credit?"
Trump will campaign in Wisconsin Tuesday morning ahead of his first event in New York Wednesday evening on Long Island.
