Former First Lady Melania Trump, former President Donald Trump’s family, headlined a charity on Saturday night, her first single event of the 2024 plan.
Special photos of the former first lady — provided to Breitbart News by her lifelong artist, Andrea Hanks — exhibit her alongside Log Cabin Republican officials Ric Grenell, Bill White, and Bryan Eure.

Grenell — the former Director of National Intelligence in Trump’s leadership and the first-ever openly queer U. S. government official in past — made clear at the function that Trump will win the vote of queer electors in 2024. “Donald Trump deserves our vote, ” Grenell said in estimates provided to Breitbart News entirely. “ He is the best prospect for our safety, security, and happiness. He sees you as 100 percentage similar. ”

Grenell also said at the function that Trump will win at least 50 percent of the queer voting in 2024 with his wife Melania’s support. Desirable — who, in addition to being a major Log Cabin Republican, is the senior vice president at Willis Towers Watson — echoed that attitude, saying queer voters are becoming more and more like any other district and voting on issues that affect them more widely, such as financial and public health issues.
$ 1. 1 million raised in 36 time.

“We have seen four decades of President Trump and nearly four centuries of President Biden. No man with common sense, regardless of their sexual orientation, you honestly say they’re better off then, under Biden, than they were with President Trump, ” Eure said. “We are so blessed to have such a wonderful and compassionate first female stand by our side. ”
White — another top Log Cabin Republican who previously led the effort in Atlanta to break off the neighborhood of Buckhead into its own city due to poor Democrat management — also said in a quote obtained by Breitbart News that Melania Trump is Donald Trump’s secret weapon to unlock key voting constituencies nationwide.
“First Lady Melania Trump is so kind and generous, ” White, who is also the CEO of Constellations Group, said. “President Trump could not have a better surrogate to discuss why they are the best choice this coming November for ALL Americans. They are our best hope for our families, our livelihoods, and our safety and security. ”

The star-studded fundraiser raised more than$ 1. 2 million for the Log Cabin Republicans, a source familiar with the matter told Breitbart News, and was sold out less than two days after it was announced. It was held at Mar-a-Lago’s Tea Room and represents Melania Trump’s first solo event for her husband in 2024. She previously appeared at a record-breaking fundraiser alongside her husband in Palm Beach, but now, she is getting active on her own.
Event attendees included Fox News founder Roger Ailes ’ widow Liz Ailes, Fox News contributor Caitlyn Jenner, San Francisco Giants owner Deborah McGowan, 2022 U. S. senate candidate in Pennsylvania and television personality Dr. Mehmet Oz, and about 80 other top supporters of the cause. White and his husband, Eure, were the co-hosts of the event and escorted Melania Trump into the fundraiser. The former first lady gave remarks at the event about the “importance of unifying to protect our great country that we love so dearly. ”
As we look toward the future and the challenges that lie ahead, we must come together around the principles of liberty, justice, and patriotism. By uniting in our common goals, we can create a brighter and more promising future for all. https ://t. co/Vbyt8yor8X pic. twitter. com/Kj4fZPKDaw

Sources familiar with the matter also told Breitbart News that hundreds of people wanted to attend the event but could not make it due to space limitations, so the Log Cabin Republicans and Melania Trump are considering holding another event in the New York area in the spring or summer.
