This is hardly the first time the pair rarely show PDA toward one another.
As OK! previously reported, in October 2024, Donald, 78, was ridiculed for not kissing his wife on the lips during his New York City rally on Sunday, October 27.
While greeting Melania, who rarely attends her husband's events, they air-kissed and avoided showing off any PDA in front of the stadium of people.

Melania Trump was roasted for wearing an all-black outfit at the event.
At the time, people went crazy over the uncomfortable moment.
"He has to pay extra for a real kiss," one person wrote about the video clip, which went viral on X, formerly known as Twitter, while another brought up Donald's eldest daughter, Ivanka Trump, writing, "He hugged Ivanka more passionately."
A third person added: "He promised her the kiss would last as long as he does in the bedroom. She then agreed to a 3 second kiss."
Melania Trump said she will live with her husband at the White House.
Though the two rarely look happy, Melania insisted she will be sticking by her hubby.
When asked where she will reside for the next four years, she replied: "I will be in the White House. And when I need to be in New York, I will be in New York. When I need to be in Palm Beach, I will be in Palm Beach. My first priority is to be a mom, to be a first lady, to be a wife."
She also shared what her son, Barron, will do since he's currently in college at NYU.
"Whatever he would like to do," Melania said during an interview with Fox News that aired on Fox & Friends on January 13. "I feel as children, we have them till they are 18, 19 years old. We teach them, we guide them, and then we give them the wings to fly."
