Do you really think she chose that shirt specifically to signal her disregard for those children, despite knowing exactly how the media would react? Or perhaps it was just an unfortunate coincidence? Does everyone close to Donald need to be equally terrible?
For all I know, while Donald was threatening North Korea with nuclear holocaust, Melania was campaigning against online bullying. She seems quite reasonable person to me.
She... married.. trump?
At very minimum, if you assume it's an innocent mistake, wearing that jacket in that context shows shockingly bad judgment. But she had handlers that surely would've noticed this and advised her to change. So that means she wore it intentionally with complete disregard for the context. It shows she's a cold and cruel person, which isn't a surprise but does mean that she's not the reasonable person you think she is.
Yes. Absolutely. She is a conservative.
The jacket makes a pretty shitty statement on the face of it, no matter how you could present it, and the message is completely wrong to wear to a children's detention facility. I honestly believe she didn't think about any aspect of it except as a fashion statement, which is a good indication she shouldn't be a public representative.
She claims the jacket was worn as a message to the "fake news media."

As Catherine Ryan put it: "She's just an innocent gold digger who got in way over her head".
