Aside from a professional lip reader revealing the words Donald and Melania Trump shared during their dance at an inaugural ball, some netizens shared strong opinions about how the couple appeared.

During President Donald Trump’s inauguration on January 20, 2025, he and First Lady Melania Trump shared a dance at the Liberty Ball. Lip reading expert Jeremy Freeman has weighed in with his analysis concerning the conversation the couple had during the event that also showcased the striking structural gown Melania donned, designed by her stylist.

As the orchestra played a slow, romantic tune at the ball, Donald and Melania took center stage. The couple swayed gently to the music, with the President of the United States (POTUS) wrapping his arm firmly around the waist of the First Lady of the United States (FLOTUS).

Melania rested her hand on her husband’s back, bringing herself closer to him as they shared an intimate moment and exchanged words in front of the crowd.

According to Freeman, who is an Expert Witness Forensic Lip Reader with certification from the Deafness Cognition and Language Research Centre at University College London, at some point, Melania stated, “Today is one we will never forget.”

Donald then replied, “You’re right, I’ll learn, I’ll fight.” The exchange grew even more personal as Melania assured her support with, “I got you.”

Freeman, who has been lip reading professionally for over a decade, said Donald responded with, “We’ll see. Will you control it? Less tricky, less pushing away?” “It’s a no,” answered Melania, to which Donald reportedly acknowledged that he heard her.
