The former first lady seemingly skipped the high-profile event at their Mar-a-Lago estate on Tuesday night, following her notable absence on the indictment trip to New York City.
The former president has pleaded not guilty to 34 charges of falsifying business records related to hush money payments made in the run-up to the 2016 presidential election to among others, adult film actress Stormy Daniels for an alleged affair.

(AP) Mr Trump turned to his family as he bragged to the audience about his successful real estate business and how banks had not lost “even $1” in their dealings with The Trump Organization.
He then individually named all of his children, but not his wife.
“I built a great business with my family, a fantastic business,” he told the crowd as he smiled at his family in the front row and pointed at them.
