First Lady Melania Trump arrived hand-in-hand with President Donald Trump at the White House Governors’ Dinner, captivating attendees with her elegant ensemble during a week of political turbulence.

Elegant Arrival Amid Controversy

Melania Trump turned heads in shimmering silver pants paired with a sleek black tie-front top. President Trump complemented her look in a classic tuxedo as they entered the glitzy event together.

The dinner drew significant attention due to ongoing disputes. Several state leaders boycotted the gathering following uninvitations from the National Governors Association event held on Friday.

Feuds and Reversals with Governors

Tensions escalated with Maryland Governor Wes Moore and Colorado Governor Jared Polis. President Trump initially rescinded their invitations before extending them again. Despite the change, figures like Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey confirmed their absence.

“Trump has made this whole thing a farce,” Healey stated.

Some leaders chose an alternative event instead.

Recent Setbacks for the President

The boycott follows a major ruling from the Supreme Court, which struck down the president’s sweeping tariff policy on Friday, marking a significant challenge for the administration.

During the dinner, President Trump addressed the guests, followed by US Secretary of War Pete Hegseth offering grace.
