Resurfaced Clip Vindicates Melania, Debunks Hunter Biden’s Vulgar Claims

Just days after Melania Trump threatened Hunter Biden with a $1 billion defamation suit for alleging she was introduced to her husband by Jeffrey Epstein, an old interview featuring the future presidential couple appears to validate her claim that the Biden son is off-base.

Shortly after their marriage, Melania and Donald Trump appeared for a sitdown interview with CNN’s Larry King, where they spoke about their infatuation with one another and recalled how they first met.

“1998, it was a fashion week. September 1998,” 35-year-old Melania said in 2005 about when she first met her husband.

Asked by King if she was “introduced” to Donald by anyone specifically, Melania stated that their first meeting occurred naturally.

“Well, no, we were both at the same party, and that’s how we met,” she said with a smile.

Trump sang his wife’s praises in the interview, which took place two years before Epstein was first arrested on charges of soliciting underage girls for sex.

“I went crazy. I was actually supposed to meet somebody else. It was this great supermodel sitting next to Melania, and I was supposed to meet this supermodel. I said ‘forget about her, who is the one on the left?’ And it was Melania,” he said with a knowing look to his wife.

The simmering White House controversy around the government’s Epstein investigation has unchained Hunter Biden, who said in a recent interview that the late pedophile “introduced Melania to Trump. The connections are, like, so wide and deep.”

Those remarks prompted a letter from Melania’s attorneys demanding he refrain from further “false, defamatory, disparaging, and inflammatory” statements about the first lady.

In a recent interview, vlogger Andrew Callaghan asked Hunter if he would like to apologize to Melania for his initial accusation.

“F**k that. That’s not gonna happen,” Hunter Biden said, laughing about the possibility of a lawsuit.

Melania demanded Wednesday that Hunter issue a public apology and retraction or else he will be hit with a $1 billion suit — no laughing matter.

Alejandro Brito, Melania’s attorney, wrote to Hunter and his longtime attorney, Abbe Lowell, to demand that he “immediately retract the false, defamatory, disparaging and inflammatory statements made about Mrs. Trump.”

“Failure to comply will leave Mrs. Trump with no choice but to pursue any and all legal rights and remedies available to her to recover the overwhelming financial and reputational harm that you have caused her to suffer,” Brito wrote.

Hunter is the second source attempting to tie Melania to Epstein. Earlier this month, the Daily Beast was forced to retract a story with similar claims after receiving a similar threat of litigation from the first lady’s attorney.

“After this story was published, The Beast received a letter from First Lady Melania Trump’s attorney challenging the headline and framing of the article,” reads an editor’s note in place of the story.

“After reviewing the matter, the Beast has taken down the article and apologizes for any confusion or misunderstanding,” it added.
