His compensation and investments were listed as part of Donald Trump’s latest financial disclosure report, which all presidential candidates are required to file.
The former first lady earns substantial income from speaking fees, properties in New York and Slovenia that she rents out, and her non-fungible token (NFT) licensing deal.
Among the listed income is more than $237,000 for a conference, paid for by Log Cabin Republicans, in April 2024.
That month, Melania Trump hosted a $10,000 per ticket fundraiser for the Conservative Party LGBTQ group at Mar-a-Lago.
Melania earned $237,000 from Log Cabin Republicans in April when she hosted a fundraiser for the group at Mar-a-Lago.
The event raised around $5 million, which was split between Donald Trump’s re-election campaign and the Republican Party.
Melania Trump also hosted a fundraiser for Log Cabin Republicans in July at the Trumps’ apartment in Trump Tower. No payment is listed for that event.
