Melania is all of us 😬
Melania Trump couldn’t muster much of a smile during a visit to a Catholic shrine in Washington DC on Tuesday
Melania’s grimace was the first public signal of displeasure from the first lady for several years. During her husband’s January 2017 inauguration ceremony, one of her smiles was famously seen collapsing into an expression of sadness while President Trump was being sworn in.And in the months that followed, Mrs Trump was seen on multiple occasions swatting her husband’s hand away when he attempted to grab on to hers.
Shortly before Tuesday’s visit, the Archbishop of Washington, Wilton D Gregory issued a statement saying: ‘I find it baffling and reprehensible that any Catholic facility would allow itself to be so egregiously misused and manipulated in a fashion that violates our religious principles, which call us to defend the rights of all people even those with whom we might disagree.
The scathing statement is likely to rile Trump, who is popular among devout Catholic voters for his hardline anti-abortion stance.Trump was roundly condemned Monday after at least one priest and numerous peaceful protesters were tear-gassed so he could leave the White House to visit a nearby damaged church.
