Melania Trump Slammed For Selling 'Tacky' $600 Gold Necklace: ‘Grifters Are Gonna Grift’
Melania Trump is selling a "Vote Freedom" gold necklace for $600, and it's sparking a social media firestorm.
The first lady runs her own website where she sells White House memorabilia, ranging from Christmas ornaments and jewelry to audiobooks. The standout item, however, is the $600 gold vermeil necklace, launched in 2024 as part of her "Vote Freedom" collection. Described as a limited edition piece, it celebrates Lady Liberty and is one of three necklaces in the collection.
The necklace itself is hard to miss, featuring a thick gold chain anchored by a large round pendant depicting Lady Liberty, with the word "Liberty" inscribed above the illustration. For a personal touch, buyers can also have it engraved.
Rounding out the "Vote Freedom" collection are a Sterling Silver necklace priced at $550 and a more accessible gold plated option at $175.
'The First Lady of Grift'
Melania's $600 gold necklace has attracted the attention of social media, drawing everything from sticker shock to debates over its design. According to The Mirror U.S., The View co-host Ana Navarro called it out on Instagram. “...Add a $600 necklace to the $90 Christmas ornaments and the memoir book and the [expletive] NFTs,” she wrote.
“Oh, and the $250k to speak to gay Republicans. Basically, the only time Melania shows her face is to extract money from [the] poor... Seriously, how can people supposedly so rich be so miserly?” Navarro slammed the first lady over the necklace's hefty price tag. Poking further fun, she added that Melania “should be First Lady of Home Shopping Network. #tacky.”
An X user posts about reports of Melania Trump selling $600 'Vote Freedom' necklaces.
On X, users slammed Melania as a grifter, piling on the sarcasm over her $600 necklace.
“Grifters are gonna grift. Get those credit cards out #MAGA. Here comes another Trump call to action. $$$,” one commenter sneered. “They should be embarrassed. What former President or former First Lady ever stooped this low to enrich themselves?” another stated.
One user dubbed her “The First Lady of grift,” adding, “Now, Melania Trump is hawking an ugly necklace to her MAGA fans. Oh, it’s $600. The rubes will buy it, then complain about inflation. She’s as tacky as her husband.”
Another quipped, “Please help MEL — she's finding it hard to make ends meet. She will sell off the country next.”
Melania’s Documentary Under Scrutiny Once Again
Amid the necklace debate, discussion about Melania’s self-titled documentary has also resurfaced on social media, after an unverified image showing the film’s DVD being sold for 99 cents on Walmart Clearance began circulating on X.
Netizens started reacting to the photo, which has not been verified as valid yet. “Prices are down under President Trump!” quipped one user. “At least one Trump is tackling inflation,” joked another. Someone else wrote, “‘Free’ would be way too expensive, MAGA fell for it again.”
However, MAGA member Danielle Gill, wife of Representative Brandon Gill, claimed that the viral picture is fake. “Leftists are so desperate and outraged that First Lady Melania Trump’s movie was a record setting success. They’ve resorted to creating fake photos of her movie in a Walmart clearance aisle,” she wrote, adding, “In reality, Melania’s movie is only available on Amazon Prime Video, not Walmart.”
MAGA member Danielle Gill claims viral image of Melania's documentary DVD on Walmart clearance is fake.
For the unversed, Melania's self-titled documentary, which released theatrically on January 30, 2026, follows her over the 20 days leading up to Donald Trump’s second presidential inauguration as she prepares to transition back into the role of first lady.
The 1 hour 48 minute-long film is directed by Brett Ratner and co-produced by Melania herself under her production company, Muse Films. The film is distributed by Amazon MGM Studios, which reportedly acquired its rights for a whopping 40 million dollars.
