Crowd Gives Melania Trump Warm Welcome As She Accepts Award From Log Cabin Republicans


The crowd gave Melania Trump a warm welcome at the Log Cabin Republicans (LCR) annual Spirit of Lincoln Gala where they honored first lady Melania Trump on Saturday. 

LCR also gave awards to former Trump appointee Ric Grenell, Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel, and Rep. Chris Stewart (R-UT). See the videos below for the crowd reactions.

The LCR issued a press release that said: “The Log Cabin Republicans, the nation’s largest organization representing conservative LGBT Americans and allies, is pleased to announce that First Lady Melania Trump will be the guest of honor at Log Cabin Republicans & Liberty Education Forum’s annual Spirit of Lincoln Gala, where she will be celebrated with the 2021 Spirit of Lincoln Award.

“The Spirit of Lincoln Gala is an annual tradition to honor those who exemplify a commitment to enhancing personal freedom, encouraging individual responsibility, and ensuring equality under the law for all Americans.

“During and after her time in office, First Lady Melania Trump has proven time and again her leadership on those principles.

“Her BE BEST initiative focused on those most vulnerable among us – children – by encouraging them to be their best, drawing attention to young Americans social and emotional health, issues that LGBT Americans of all stripes empathize with.

“Moreover, in the heat of the presidential election last year, the First Lady passionately reiterated her husband’s commitment to LGBT Americans, supported diversity of thought, and made clear that we are welcome members of the Republican Party, a historic moment not just for LGBT conservatives but for the history of the GOP.

“Melania Trump’s acceptance to be the guest of honor at the Spirit of Lincoln Gala even after she has left the White House only reaffirms her unwavering support for the LGBT community.

“Melania Trump’s work as First Lady, from helping children reach their full potential to championing a more inclusive Republican Party, has been historic,” Log Cabin Republicans Managing Director Charles Moran said.
