Ms Winston Wolkoff has gone from being one of Ms Trump’s closest friends to one of her most outspoken critics since being fired from the White House in 2018. In her latest scathing article against Ms Trump, Ms Winston Wolkoff said: “At this moment, when children are asking their parents why people destroyed our Capitol, what will be her answer?
“Will she continue the lies that it was antifa? Or will she tell the truth, which is, Trump lit the match that sparked the rioting and decimation.
“He, his children, and personal lawyer incited violence and told people to riot.”
The pro-Trump protests which hit Washington on January 6 last week resulted in clashes with police, while CNN claimed two days later that five people were killed.
It is speculated both Melania and her husband are set to travel to their Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida after leaving the White House.
Mr Trump’s daughter Ivanka and her husband Jared Kushner are also rumoured to be heading to the state after reports emerged that they bought a multi-million dollar property there on a high-security island.
Meanwhile Ms Winston Wolkoff is not the only analyst to criticise Donald Trump for last week’s protests.
The UK Government’s Home Secretary Priti Patel told the BBC the violence was “awful beyond words”.
She added, of Mr Trump: “His comments directly led to the violence, and so far he has failed to condemn that violence and that is completely wrong.”
Scottish First Minister Nicola Sturgeon described the scenes as an “insurrection”, but said the protests were “not that surprising”.
She told ITV’s Good Morning Britain: “In some senses, Donald Trump’s presidency has been moving towards this moment almost from the moment it started.”
