    Yep. This is the kind of thing that makes Trump supporters say, “They’re never gonna give us a fair shake. They’re gonna make a big deal out of every little thing, so we might as well....”https://twitter.com/davecatanese/status/958872705444564993 …

    Come on. Melania was making a nice gesture. How outrageous to bring a gift. https://twitter.com/huffpostpol/status/958716696117772288 …

        And you should probably listen to what Michelle actually said. She didn't mock the gift at all. Of course, if you stepped back and grasped how much class she has you'd automatically know that.

        So you're saying everyone should bow to Trump supporters? Ooh let's be sensitive to their feelings in hopes that they're going to stop being stupid?

        Watch the video. She is explaining her awkward reaction not criticizing the giving of the gift. They are showing her trying to figure out what to do with the box because they are supposed to take pictures.

        Yes, the people who spent 8 years complaining about Obama’s birth certificate and taupe suit are so hard done by.

        Please. She was explaining that she did not know what to do with the gift bc protocol dictated every move and she became flustered. Dont make it out to be more than what it was.

        Something overlooked far too often with the Trumps is that they are new to politics. Most people outside of the DC media bubble get that and cut them some slack.

        You are being so dishonest, why don't you post the actual video and see that she's not mocking the gift but talking about where to put it

        Yep. This is the kind of thing that makes Obama supporters say, "They're never gonna give us a fair shake. They're gonna make a big deal out of every little thing, so we might as well...." See how that works? Imagined slights & petty comments don't do much to improve discourse.

        Media is desperate for a story. How about an update on Puerto Rico, Afghanistan or North Korea instead of tabloid gossip?

        If you actually watched the interview, Michelle definitely wasn't complaining. Shhe was explaining how awkward it was because everything is staged & she wasn't expecting a gift. She was grateful for the kind gesture & said it was a beautiful frame.

        You guys are all misreading this whole thing. Michelle was talking about why she was so awkward not dissing Trump. She said it was a nice gift!

        You still aren't grasping it. People, normal human beings see the press as just off the rails. And they are. It's not just Trump people seeing this and it's not a justification ( in your eyes) for monkey see monkey do. It's the effective way to fight.

        OMG - never miss a chance to criticize the Obamas, right. Watch the video! Michelle Obama is responding to Ellen - about how awkward MICHELLE looks in the video - not knowing where to put the gift when they have to pose for photos! SHE SAID IT WAS A LOVELY GIFT!!

        I’ll finish it for you. “... be mean, racist, sexist chauvinists.” You can’t elect a horrific person who ushers in a new horrific normal, and expect people not to be in a permanent state of on-edge. Like, OK, Melania, but your husband is a monster.
