WASHINGTON (AP) — Soon-to-be first lady Melania Trump said Friday that preparing to enter the White House for the second time looks a lot different from the first go-around. Now, she and her husband know what to expect.

“You know what you need to establish, you know what kind of people you need to hire for your office,” she said on “Fox & Friends” in a rare television appearance, where she showed off holiday ornaments she's selling and her memoir as Christmas approaches.

She said the pace has been fast, as Donald Trump works to build his administration: “It's incredible and we are very, very busy.” She's packing up so “we can start on Day 1.”

She said her husband's attitude after his 2024 win was not the same as when he won in 2016. “The country and the people really supported him," she said. I think the energy is different. People around him are different.”
