Former President Donald Trump said in a speech on Saturday that his wife Melania found his impression of President Joe Biden a bit too real.
Trump has said the former First Lady has been his toughest critic over his raucous rallies.
It appears Trump’s impression of election rival President Joe Biden as a doddering old man may have hit Melania too close to home, as Trump explained during his Jersey Shore rally on Saturday.
He told the Wildwood audience that he no longer does his impression of Biden because Melania thought it was really him.
“I called my wife, the wonderful first lady,” Trump said. “I said, ‘First lady, how great was that a speech?’ “She said, ‘You were okay.’ I said, ‘What’s going on? ‘. She said, ‘Well, you couldn’t find your way off the stage!’

It appears Trump’s impression of election rival President Joe Biden as a doddering old man may have hit Melania too close to home, as Trump explained during his rally at the Jersey Shore on Saturday.
“I called my wife, the wonderful first lady,” Trump said. “I said, ‘First lady, how great was that a speech?’ “She said, ‘You were okay.’ I said, ‘What’s going on? ‘. She said, ‘Well, you couldn’t find your way off the stage!’
He then tried to explain that he was imitating Biden “and they said I couldn’t find the way, that’s what happened.” So I have to be careful!’
Trump then accused the ‘fake news’ of saying he couldn’t get off stage himself, so now he’s doing a ‘modified version’ of his impression.
The former first lady has been absent from her husband’s side as he fights his many legal battles and campaigns for a second term in the White House.
One guest described her as “good-humored” and close to Trump all night.
Photos and videos posted to social media show her dressed in a fashionable black pantsuit and smiling broadly.
Trump was visibly happy to see her there. But what remains unclear is whether she will give him a boost in other areas of his life, especially the lawsuit and his numerous lawsuits.
The former first lady is popular among the MAGA faithful. The crowd cheers loudly when Trump mentions her name during one of his campaign rallies.
She has never spoken publicly about the events surrounding the Jan. 6 insurrection — she was at the White House that day — or Trump’s efforts to overturn the 2020 election results.

Trump held a large Jersey Shore rally in Wildwood on Saturday evening, where he talked about eating hot dogs and mocked the state’s former governor Chris Christie.
Trump opened the rally by saying he planned to contest not only in New Jersey — a traditionally Democratic state — but also in Minnesota and Virginia.
While Melania is unlikely to appear next to Donald in court – reports indicate she sees his legal issues as his problem and not hers – if Trump wins a second term in the White House, Trump would return as first lady .
Trump held a large Jersey Shore rally in Wildwood on Saturday evening, where he talked about eating hot dogs and mocked the state’s former governor Chris Christie.
The ex-president’s campaign claimed that 80,000 supporters turned out for the oceanfront affair.
Trump opened the rally by saying he planned to contest not only in New Jersey — a traditionally Democratic state — but also in Minnesota and Virginia.
“I don’t know if it can be all of them,” Trump predicted about the states he would win in the November election. “This guy is so damn bad it could be all of them.”
The presumptive Republican nominee sprinkled his stump speech with Jersey Shore references as he spoke in front of a large Ferris wheel and other amusement park attractions.
