Donald Trump just revealed that he has a nickname for his wife, Melania Trump, though it’s not your typical “honey” or “sweetie.” The president says that he chose this nickname not out of an inside joke or intimate moment with his wife, but rather because it “reminds” him that he’s president.

Donald Trump's Nickname For Melania
At the "Salute to America" event in Iowa on July 3rd, Trump veered off track from speaking about military recruitment to his relationship with his wife. "I remember saying to our great First Lady," he said, laughing. "I call her 'First Lady,' isn't it terrible?"
He says even when it's just the two of them, including just before bed, he refers to Melania as "First Lady."
"I say, 'Good night, First Lady, my darling,' because it reminds me that I'm president. That's why."
Social Media Reactions
Users on social media were pretty appalled to hear this, and let their opinions be heard. "This is lies," one person wrote on X, formerly Twitter. "They don't even live together."
"That's so on trend for egotistical morons," another user posted.
"This is pretty gross," a third person said. "Maybe in a joking matter every now and again, but he even said he's not gassing her up—he's gassing himself up. Lame!"
"Every time I learn a new fact about their relationship I feel worse and worse for Melania," said another.
"No wonder she hates him," a final user said.
