Lip-reader claims Trump told Melania 'I'm done with her' during tense race exchange

A seemingly tense moment between former President Donald Trump and former First Lady Melania Trump at the IndyCar Freedom 250 race in Washington has drawn public attention. Television cameras captured the couple engaged in a conversation that appeared strained, with Melania leaning in to speak to her husband before they began talking simultaneously.

“

I have to see something.

The exchange, which occurred in the presidential box, lacked audio due to the loud noise from the racing cars. However, professional lip-reader Nicola Hickling offered an interpretation of their conversation to Metro, describing it as "intense."

According to Hickling's assessment, Trump indicated he "had to see something," while Melania at one point stated she would leave. The lip-reader also suggested that an unnamed woman was mentioned, with Trump reportedly saying he was "done with her." Melania then concluded that she would speak with this person in the morning.

“

I'm done with her.

It is important to note that without an audio recording, the content of their exchange cannot be independently verified and relies solely on the lip-reader's interpretation. The IndyCar Freedom 250 race itself was part of the U.S. capital's commemoration of the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence.

I'll talk to her in the morning.
