Former first lady Melania Trump made a rare public appearance Tuesday to pay tribute to Rosalynn Carter.
Trump settled into a more private life after the White House away from her husband’s 2024 campaign appearances and reportedly had been a reluctant first lady. She not only attended the late first lady’s memorial service but led dignitaries into Glenn Memorial United Methodist Church for the tribute.
