Here’s the scoop: Former and future First Lady Melania Trump has declined the invitation.

After Donald Trump’s decisive win against Vice President Kamala Harris last week, the Bidens reached out to invite the Trumps to the White House.

While Donald Trump accepted President Joe Biden’s invitation and was scheduled to meet at 11 a.m. on Wednesday, Melania did not reveal her plans until just hours before this meeting.

For Melania, it’s a firm no.

“Her husband’s return to the Oval Office to begin the transition is promising, and she wishes him every success,” read a statement from Melania Trump’s office on X.

“Former First Lady Mrs. Trump will not be attending today’s White House meeting,” the statement confirmed.

The statement also took aim at the media, criticizing them for using “unnamed sources” to spread “false, misleading, and inaccurate information.”

“Be careful about your news sources,” it further advised.

Traditionally, it’s customary for the first lady to host a tea with her successor. In 2016, Michelle Obama welcomed Melania Trump for a “tea and tour” in the Yellow Oval Room of the White House.

The Trumps did not host the Bidens when Joe Biden took office in 2020, nor did they attend Biden’s inauguration following the January 6 Capitol incident and Trump’s unsubstantiated claims regarding the election results.
