Melania Trump is stepping into the campaign spotlight for her husband, telling a crowd of supporters she was looking forward to the coming battle and hosting a pair of fundraisers for Donald Trump's re-election campaign.
'I'm looking forward to campaigning and fighting for Americans and our great nation. Thank you very much,' the first lady told the president's supporters at the Red, White and Blue gala at Mar-a-Lago Saturday night, as seen on a video from the event posted to social media, as the crowd cheered her on.
She'll also be raising money for the president's November re-election bid in two posh - and wealthy - locations.
Melania Trump is listed as the host of a March 18 fundraiser in Beverly Hills and for a March 25 event at Mar-a-Lago, according to invitations obtained by Politico.
The fundraisers will jointly benefit the president's campaign and the Republican Party.
The Trump campaign did not respond to DailyMail.com's inquiry about the first lady's 2020 plans.
Her shy public presence hasn't reduced her popularity among Republican voters, who cheer loudly when the president mentions his wife during his campaign stump speeches.
And Melania Trump could help the president with women voters and in key swing areas in Midwest states like Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan, and Wisconsin.

Melania should be out there with children, with people who are struggling and succeeding because of President Trump’s policies, in suburban environments talking to real people. Why? I can’t see that anyone on the Dems side, or their spouses, has as much heart and compassion as Melania does.
Maybe knowledge of geography (or lack thereof) contributed to the Brits' defeat in the War of Independence.
