First Lady Melania Trump celebrated Independence Day last week with President Donald Trump on the White House balcony. Their joint appearance caught many eyes—especially one surprising detail. President Trump marked the holiday by signing his sweeping tax and spending cuts law, dubbed the “One Big Beautiful Bill.”
Following the signing, he and Melania shared a warm embrace and even performed the playful “Trump Dance” together. The couple smiled and kissed, showing affection as they waved to supporters below.
“She instinctively pushes back, her body tenses, and her eyes avoid his mouth—a subtle sign of discomfort.” Barbara Sobel tweeted: “Trump pulls Melania close for a kiss, while she physically tries to push him away.”
A Pattern of Mixed Reactions
This isn’t the first time viewers questioned Melania’s response to Trump’s public displays of affection.
