Melania Trump says she has, at times, told the president to put his phone down. And she says she doesn't always agree with what he tweets.
The US first lady spoke briefly with reporters Saturday as she was wrapping up a four-country tour of Africa with a visit to the pyramids and the Great Sphinx in Egypt.
Standing in front of the Sphinx, Mrs Trump said makes her opinions clear with her husband.
"I don't always agree what he tweets," she said in a rare, unscripted interaction with reporters. "And I tell him that. I give him my honest opinion and honest advice. And sometimes he listens and sometimes he doesn't. But I have my own voice and my opinions and it's very important for me that I express what I feel."
