Newly declassified records offer an insightful perspective on what was transpiring in the White House on the morning of January 6th, 2021 from recollections of former First Lady Melania Trump.
The following excerpt comes from recorded conversations with Mrs. Trump, which shed light on her whereabouts and actions on that morning.
Q: “Mrs. Trump, can you please let us know where you were and what you were doing on the morning of January 6th, 2021, when a violent mob attacked the U.S. Capitol?”
MT: “Certainly. On that morning, I was busy washing my hair. I was in bathroom 34, which has a nice, strong shower jet. Also, it has a large shower rack that has space for all the shampoos I use when I wash my hair.”
Q: “When would you say you started your hair wash, and when did it end?”
MT: “Let me see. I think I woke up early that morning, around 11. I got up and looked for clothes, but that bedroom didn’t have any of my clothes in it. So, I found a towel, wrapped myself in it, just in case, and went to look for a bathroom. I think I went to bathroom 35 first, which was close by, but it didn’t have a shampoo rack large enough. The next one, number 34, did. It also found my shampoos in it. I must have used it some time ago and left them there.”
“I wasn’t hungry yet, because I had woken up early. So, I decided that this was a good time to wash my hair. This must have been around 10:30 am.”
Q: “Thank you. So, when did you finish washing your hair?”
MT: “Probably around 1 pm. Or it might have been 1:30. I don’t remember exactly, but I was starting to feel hungry, so, it was probably some time between 1 and 2.”
Q: “What did you do next, Mrs. Trump?”
MT: “I went to look for clothes. I walked into two or three bedrooms, but they didn’t seem to have any of my clothes in them. There are 132 rooms in the White House, and it is sometimes difficult to remember which ones have my clothes. I think I found a bedroom where I might have slept in the past month, because I recognized a dresser, and inside, I found some folded clothes. They were ordinary, but I just needed them for a short time, before I could walk to the master bedroom, where I could find something better to wear for the day.”
Q: “Msr. Trump, at what point did you become aware that there was a mob of President Trump’s supporters storming the Capitol Building.”
MT: “I don’t know. Not that day, I think. Next day maybe? Or the day after? I don’t exactly remember. But I think it was not on that day. I heard it mentioned by someone a few days later.”
Q: “So, you were not aware whether President Trump was watching the events in the Capitol on his TV on that day?”
MT: “Oh, no, not at all. I did not see my husband that day at all. I think I saw him the next day when he passed by, but he didn’t say anything. So, no, I was not aware what he did on that day.”
Q: “Mrs. Trump, how often do you wash your hair?”
MT: “I am not sure this is an appropriate question. I will — how do you say — take the 5th? Is this how you say it?”
