Melania Trump is always a magnet for a political conversation on both sides of the aisle. The First Lady seems to have haters and supporters come out of the woodwork no matter what, and Saturday — Independence Day in the U.S. — was no different.
Trump tweeted out a simple statement about the holiday, and the chorus erupted. FLOTUS wanted those in the U.S. to have a “happy and safe” day. She also remarked about how she and her husband, President Donald Trump, would be attending a celebration later in the day.
