In a great moment met with cheering from the crowd, Melania Trump pushed back against liberals who attacked her Christmas Decor.
The attacks all looked a bit like this:
But Melania wasn’t having any of it.
The crowd cheered as Melania stood her ground:
“We are in 21st century and everybody has a different taste,” Trump said when the issue arose during a panel at Liberty University. “I think they look fantastic.”
“I hope everybody will come over and visit it. In real life, they look even more beautiful.”
On a similar note, one of my favorite comments recently was Dan Boningo speaking to a crowd about the reporters who like to call Donald Trump stupid.
Boningo sums it up perfectly: "I say full stop on that. Donald Trump ran for President of the United States and won on his first try, and I'm supposed to listen to some two-bit hack making $25,000 writing articles for BuzzFeed? Yeah, I don't think so!"
Perfectly said Dan!
Here's more on the attacks on Melania, from the Washington Times:
In what has become an annual holiday tradition, first lady Melania Trump was needled Monday by the media for her decorations, in this case the crimson Christmas trees lining the White House East colonnade.
Slate roasted Mrs. Trump for “her red Christmas trees of death,” while The Washington Post called them “spooky” and Mashable ripped the “forest of blood-red trees.”
BuzzFeed News dubbed them the “merry cones of death,” adding that they “literally look like they’re dripping with blood.” Vanity Fair deemed the trees “menacing.”
Then there were the tweets comparing the 40 unadorned topiary trees to the red-clad women of Hulu’s “The Handmaid’s Tale.”
The barbs came a year after Mrs. Trump was scorched for decorating the hallway with planters of white trees branches, which the Daily Beast called “the most terrifying domestic space in America” and “Melania Trump’s nightmare before Christmas.”
“Last year, shadowy white branches stretched above Trump as if she was our Christmas heroine making her way through an eerie tunnel of witch’s knuckles on her way to a candy-cane forest,” Vanity Fair said. “This year, crimson red trees dotted a long hallway, dyed with what I assume is liberal blood a-boiling.”
