Jill Biden and Melania Trump speak after shooting

First lady Jill Biden and her predecessor, former first lady Melania Trump, spoke Sunday afternoon following the shooting at former President Trump’s rally in Pennsylvania.

The first lady’s office confirmed to The Hill that the two women spoke after Melania Trump released a statement earlier Sunday calling the attack on her husband “heinous” and saying that “political games are inferior to love.”

The former first lady has hardly attended any public campaign events with her husband but is expected to appear during the GOP convention in Milwaukee this week.

The first ladies’ phone call followed a phone call Saturday night between President Biden and Trump. The president later said he had a good talk with his political rival.

“I’m sincerely grateful that he’s doing well and recovering. We had a short but good conversation,” Biden said Sunday . He added that he and the first lady are keeping Trump and his family in his prayers.

A 20-year-old gunman fired shots into a Trump campaign rally Saturday, with one bullet grazing the former president’s ear. The shooter, identified by the FBI as Thomas Matthew Crooks of Bethel Park, Pa., shot at the rally from a nearby rooftop.

Biden’s campaign suspended communications Saturday after the shooting and plans to start them back up Monday night, a campaign official told The Hill.
