The wife of President Trump, Melania Trump faced criticism for a recent wardrobe accessory.
She wore a jacket that said “I really don’t care. Do U?” The jacket was worn on the same day the First Lady visited children detained at the border, but not during her visit.
In recent days the White House had faced criticism for separating families that crossed the border illegally.
Melania Trump had spoken out against the decision, asking both sides to stop what they were doing.
She had called on both Republicans and Democrats to stop what was considered inhumane.
Mixed Signals
It could be considered a case of mixed signals from the First Lady who wanted the families to be reunited.
The idea of wearing jacket with such wording could be considered heartless after visiting children who were separated from their parents.
Some were quick to lash out at the gesture as they felt the jacket was inappropriate at such a delicate time.
Dina Titus posted a pic of herself and Melania on Twitter, She shoed herself wearing a sign on her back saying “I Care.”
“Hey, #FLOTUS, try this on for size,” she said in a tweet.
The White House defended the First Lady’s wearing of the jacket, claiming it wasn’t sending any messages, just fashion.
