Melania Trump Called ‘Irrelevant’ On Twitter After Asking For Support For Vulnerable Children, Families

Melania Trump was called "irrelevant" by some Twitter users after asking for support for the vulnerable children and families amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

The First Lady of the United States has been doing her part to help the country amid the coronavirus lockdown. She has been active on social media, encouraging people to wear masks and maintain social distancing. She has also been recognizing the frontliners by mentioning and thanking them in her social media posts from time to time.

In addition, Melania’s Be Best campaign has been supporting many children amid the pandemic. The FLOTUS has released a video encouraging kids to read books, continue learning, help with the chores and bond with their families while in quarantine. She also recommended fun family activities to enjoy at home.

Earlier this month, Melania also sent 150 boxed lunches to a children’s research hospital in Maryland. The FLOTUS made the donation to feed the patients and staff of the Children’s Inn at the National Institute of Health in Bethesda.

“Supporting those impacted by the effects of COVID19 is something the First Lady cares deeply about, and as we navigate these unique times she will continue to reach out to people in a variety of ways,” said Stephanie Grisham, Melania's spokesperson.

Then on Wednesday (May 20), Melania took to Twitter once again to give an update on the call she had with the state and local officials about the coronavirus and its effects on the children and their families.

“Productive call today with our State & local officials on #COVID19 response, where I stressed the need to support our most vulnerable children & families with the necessary mental health resources to ensure the safety & well-being of our nation's children. #BeBest,” Melania wrote.

Despite all of Melania's efforts, her post was met with criticisms. One even called the FLOTUS “irrelevant” and another labeled her “useless.”

“You are irrelevant!” @SueBlue20l commented.

“Useless. Completely and utterly useless,” @Kauairockchick wrote.

“If you truly cared about children, you would release them from their cages and reunite them with their families,” @ladalavara added.

“Hey look everyone Melania is attempting to convince us that she NOW CARES. Really!” @SyimonTemplar opined.

Meanwhile, another commented that Melania should start packing because she and her family would be out of the White House in November. Another said, “We’ll be at our best when you leave.”

Despite the backlash from the critics, many still support the FLOTUS and her Be Best campaign. Melania’s supporters thanked her for her efforts and encouraged her to continue what she’s doing.

“We love you, FLOTUS!” @P8triot4L wrote.

“Thank you @FLOTUS. We love you,” @CosmicExaminer added.

“Amazing Flotus,” @cypress_mills opined.

“Thank you. My heart BREAKS for our Young People. We have to help them get thru this unharmed. Thanks for ALL you’re doing to help protect our Children First Lady,” @VickieLFisher commented.

Meanwhile, Melania recently received warm messages from first grade students. Jenn Horton, a first grade teacher, shared a video of some kids holding their thank you notes for Melania.

According to Horton, Donald Trump’s wife called them via Zoom during the second anniversary of Be Best. She went on and thanked Melania for the kindness and compassion she showed to their students.
