Melania wears 'I don't care' jacket on trip to migrant children

June 22, 2018

United States First Lady Melania Trump has surprised the world by visiting child migrants on the United States-Mexico border -- but it was her choice of clothing for the trip that stunned the Internet.

As she was boarding a plane to Texas border, she appeared to be wearing a Zara jacket with the caption: "I really dont care. Do U?"

Photos taken as she boarded the plane at Andrews airbase didnt capture the jackets full text, but it seems to be the same as the one is available from the Zara website.

According to a pool report, Trumps communications director Stephanie Grisham told a reporter via email: "Its a jacket. There was no hidden message. After todays important visit to Texas, I hope the media isnt going to choose to focus on her wardrobe. 
However, President Donald Trump later suggested in a tweet that his wife was trolling the 'fake news media' rather than traumatised children.

Trump tweeted: "I REALLY DONT CARE, DO U?" written on the back of Melania's jacket, refers to the Fake News Media. Melania has learned how dishonest they are, and she truly no longer cares!

This is not the first time that Melania's fashion choices raised eyebrows. 

Last year the First Lady wore needle-thin high stiletto heels when she went to visit Hurricane Harvey disaster site.
