A rare face! Melania Trump has again mixed with the people! The former First Lady showed itself on Easter Monday on the traditional Easter egg roles on the lawn of the White House on the side of her husband, Donald Trump. Parts of the event were sponsored for the first time by Tech giants such as Meta, Amazon and YouTube.
Thousands of children and their parents celebrated the traditional “Easter Egg Roll” festival in the garden of the White House on Easter Monday. Melania Trump, who has made herself rare since her husband took office, surprised with her appearance and greeted the little guests. She was wearing a trench coat of mackage and luxury pumps from Roger Vivier.
Tech giants as sponsors
The “Easter egg roles” is an almost 150 -year -old tradition: families are invited to the White House at Easter and the children roll eggs with long spoons in a race. For the first time, parts of the event were sponsored by tech giants such as Meta, Amazon and YouTube that caused criticism.
Real small and medium -sized eggs for “Easter egg roll”
It was longer unclear whether there would be real eggs for family pleasure in times of egg shortage. However, Trump had stated that he rejected plastic eggs, even if some critics had stated that he would use tens of thousands of eggs in times of scarcity for pleasure.
There were many tips for alternatives on the net and colored potatoes were often mentioned. Finally, host Melania Trump explained exactly that “real eggs, small and medium -sized eggs, donated by American egg breeders” were used.
Eggs that are kept tight and expensive
Although Trump often praises that he has succeeded in having the shortage caused by bird flu and the high prices, eggs in the supermarkets are still scarce – and remain expensive.
According to the statistics, the supermarket price climbed to $ 6.23 for a dozen eggs in March. The indication that the sale is limited to one to three packages depends on many shelves. American farmers, however, gave 30,000 eggs.
Big-Tech is in the garden of the White House
In addition to the egg roller, according to Melania Trump, there were many other activities for children in the garden on the south side of the White House.
Some of them are co-financed by the large technology companies, such as a reading area sponsored by Amazon, a Ki-Fotomans thanks to Meta and a stage that is sponsored by YouTube.
The Omroep CNN reported that the companies should have paid $ 70,000 to $ 200,000 (ie to around 176,000 euros).
Trump responded to the reports and critics who convicted this sponsorship as ethically doubtful at a children’s festival: he wrote on his social platform of the truth, each donation goes directly to the Historical Association of the White House.
Eggroll tradition once started on the Capitol Hill
The tradition of “Paase Egg Roll” started at the Capitol Hill in the 1870s. When more and more children became, the eggs and themselves rolled off the hill and the facility was damaged, the pleasure of the congress was forbidden. In 1878, President Rutherford Hayes then allowed all children to roll their Easter eggs at Easter in the White House.
