(EDIT: to be fair, it's not her job to do the dirty work nor would I expect her to. We really need a statement that sets the record straight and counters this media gas lighting. this statement just feeds too much into bad media narratives for my taste, something I squarely put on Trumps COMMS team and not Melania)

I'm imagining maybe Melania, or maybe a staffer came up with idea to release a "unifying and healing statement".

So they drop this: https://www.whitehouse.gov/articles/first-lady-melania-trump-path-forward/

I imagine no bad intentions were behind it

HOWEVER

In this INSANE MEDIA CYCLE, they have painted ALL OF TRUMP SUPPORTERS + DON as radicals who are best represented by the idiots in DC that day. Likely infiltrated by bad actors but whatever.

This letter, sadly REACTS TO AND AFFIRMS THE FALSE BASIS BEHIND THE MEDIA SMEAR. As if Melania needs to "talk us down" and "quell our anger". NO, and this certainly isn't how to do it.

MAGA IS NOT A BUNCH OF IDIOTS WHO DID THAT IN DC!!

EVEN IF WE WERE TO THAT POINT, WHICH WE ARE NOT, it would be due to OUR RIGHTS BEING STRIPPED AWAY FROM US.

So lets recap

NO MENTION OF MEDIA LIES AND SLANDERS ABOUT DONALD OR HIS SUPPORTERS

NO MENTION AS TO THE REASONS WHY WE PEACEFULLY PROTESTED, and while we are NOT ANGRY RADICALS, WE ARE VERY UPSET ABOUT WATCHING OUR REPUBLIC FAIL US AND OUR RIGHTS STRIPPED.

WHO IS GOING TO SPEAK UP FOR US AND SET THE RECORD STRAIGHT?

I frankly find the letter to be insulting, pandering to the insane left smear, and in many ways condescending.
