Melania Trump, the former first lady, stated that the 2024 presidential election will be unique due to the increased division within the country.

On "Hannity" on Wednesday, Melania stated that they are facing greater danger and emphasized the threats they encounter in the world. She also mentioned the recent assassination attempts on former President Trump and how her husband went through it.

In July, at a rally in Butler, Pa., a would-be assassin named Thomas Matthew Crooks attempted to shoot the GOP presidential nominee. However, he was killed by a counter sniper before he could harm the nominee.

Ryan Wesley Routh, a 58-year-old from Hawaii, was arrested for attempting to assassinate a presidential candidate and other charges, after being spotted by a Secret Service advance agent with a rifle protruding from the tree line near Trump's West Palm Beach golf course a few months ago.

Sean Hannity, in an interview with Melania, emphasized the importance of listening and respecting differing viewpoints.

The former first lady stated that it is crucial to respect our freedom of speech and individuality, as we have different perspectives and beliefs. She emphasized the importance of straightforward communication and hearing diverse ideas, which should be shared through debate.

"If we adopt that mindset, we can achieve innovation and success in our country. I find it concerning that our country is canceling individuals who hold differing views on certain issues."

Melania acknowledged that the election cycle is a lengthy and arduous procedure, especially in the weeks and days prior to November, but she remains committed and attempts to relish the experience as much as possible.

To successfully navigate Election Day, you must remain focused and tackle each day as it comes. Unexpected events may arise, so it is crucial to be prepared for them. Her composure is what helps her handle the stress of Election Day.

"Perhaps my personality is such that I recognize that on Election Day, the outcome is determined by the people. They decide what they want for the country, and it will be so again on November 5th."
