Melania Trump planning to expand Be Best campaign in return as first lady

by

Melania Trump says she’s aiming to expand her children’s wellness platform, Be Best, when she returns to the White House as first lady.

“I will continue with Be Best and also I will expand Be Best,” Trump said in a Monday interview on “Fox & Friends.”

“In the first administration, I didn’t have much support from anyone,” Trump told Fox News’s Ainsley Earhardt.

“I invited all of the streaming platforms to the White House. I had the roundtable. And I didn’t have much support from them,” she said. 

“Imagine what we could do in those years if they will rally behind me, and teach the children and do protect them about the social media and their mental health?” she added.

Trump launched her signature, wide-ranging awareness campaign Be Best in 2018. 

“There is one goal to Be Best — and that is to educate children about the many issues they are facing today,” she said at the time. 

Originally focused on children’s social media use, well-being and opioid abuse, Trump announced in 2019 she was widening its reach to also include online safety. The move was mocked by critics, who pointed to then-President Trump’s frequent use of social media to slam his political opponents.

“I think it will be an exciting four years,” the 54-year-old former model and “Melania” author said in Monday’s interview.

 “We have a lot to do,” she said, “and put the country back in shape.”
