The world couldn’t stop talking about Donald Trump’s inauguration, and now, a surprising detail has emerged: a lip reader claims to have uncovered the private conversation between Donald and Melania Trump during their inaugural ball dance. What they discovered left people shocked…
Dancing to an Elvis-style Rendition
On the night of the inauguration, Donald Trump celebrated his new role as the 47th president in style. After a day full of ceremonies, he took to the stage at the Commander in Chief Ball, holding hands with First Lady Melania Trump. He wore a classic tuxedo with a bowtie, while Melania looked stunning in a sleek black and white gown designed by her personal stylist, Hervé Pierre.

The couple shared their first dance together to a soulful version of “The Battle Hymn of the Republic,” a song made famous by Elvis Presley. The music played on as the crowd watched, and the energy in the room was electric.
Later, they attended the Liberty Ball, an event dedicated to Trump’s supporters. Guests, braving the chilly Washington night, waited in long lines to join the exclusive celebration. Inside, they were treated to performances by country music star Jason Aldean and, in a nod to Trump’s past rally playlists, the iconic Village People.
A Playful Moment
The Liberty Ball was filled with high-profile guests, including Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner, who added glamour to the evening. One of the most talked-about parts of the event was the tongue-in-cheek photo opportunity featuring a gray backdrop with the Fulton County Sheriff’s Office logo—a playful reference to Trump’s infamous mug shot after he turned himself in over the 2020 Georgia election case.
But the true highlight of the night came when Donald and Melania Trump returned to the dance floor for their second dance, once again swaying to the Elvis-inspired rendition of “The Battle Hymn of the Republic.” The crowd was mesmerized, and Vice President J.D. Vance, along with Trump’s children and their families, joined the couple on the dance floor, creating a memorable moment for everyone.
A Private Moment Between the Trumps
During their dance, some sharp-eyed viewers noticed Donald and Melania exchanging a few words. Although the crowd couldn’t make out what they were saying, the two appeared to share a quiet, intimate moment. Melania gently rested her hand on her husband’s back, leaning in closer as they spoke.

What exactly were they talking about? Lip-reading expert Jeremy Freeman, a certified forensic lip reader from University College London, was able to decode their conversation. According to Freeman, Melania leaned in and said, “Today is one we will never forget.” Trump, standing tall beside her, responded, “You’re right, I’ll learn, I’ll fight.”
In a tender moment, Melania reassured him, “I got you.” Trump then reportedly replied, “We’ll see. Will you control it? Less tricky, less pushing away?” Melania responded firmly, “It’s a no,” to which Trump nodded, “I hear you.”
Body Language Expert Weighs In
While the conversation between Donald and Melania was private, their body language during the dance didn’t go unnoticed. Body language expert Mark Bowden weighed in on the couple’s interaction, pointing out that Melania appeared uneasy during the dance, especially as she seemed to be “supporting” Trump’s weight.
Bowden observed, “This shaky start leaves Trump leaning his full weight forward, while Melania manages to meet him cheek to cheek. With her wide-brimmed hat no longer serving as a barrier, the couple is closer than earlier in the day—though precariously close to the ear that once took a bullet.” He added, “Trump and Melania’s Inaugural Ball first dance was something else—a stiff, awkward shuffle that looked more like a hostage situation than a celebration. The man who claimed he’d ‘Make America Great Again’ couldn’t even make a slow dance look convincing.”
Mixed Reactions Online
As expected, the couple’s first dance at the Liberty Ball sparked a flurry of reactions online. Many viewers were quick to critique the awkwardness of their interaction. One commenter wrote, “Awkward. You are lying if you don’t notice that.”
Another person chimed in, saying, “Trump and Melania’s Inaugural Ball first dance was something else — a stiff, awkward shuffle that looked more like a hostage situation than a celebration.”
However, not everyone shared the same opinion. A few people offered a more positive take on the dance. One person commented, “So sweet,” offering a refreshing contrast to the wider criticism.
