Melania Trump to Give Jill Biden the Cold Shoulder This Week: Report
Melania Trump will not be traveling with her husband to Washington on Wednesday when President-elect Donald Trump and President Joe Biden have a formal transition meeting, according to multiple reports.

Others said the real reason is deeper.
“She ain’t going,” the New York Post quoted what it said was a source close to Melania Trump as saying.

Melania Trump has been living in New York City in recent weeks while the couple’s son, Barron, attends New York University, according to the U.K. Daily Mail.
During her husband’s campaign, there has been speculation that she would continue to spend a large amount of time there instead of living in Washington.
A report in Semafor said Melania Trump is working with Goldman Sachs executive John F.W. Rogers to set up staff in the East Wing of the White House.
