So, officially Melania continues to support her husband... but for how long?

Omarosa Manigault Newman, who is currently touring TV programs to promote herself, met the Trump couple seventeen years ago, a year before their wedding, after having participated in Donald Trump's reality show, The Apprentice. In a television interview aired on October 27th, she said:
