Melania Trump wears ‘I really don’t care, do u?’ coat on visit to migrant children, sparks controversy
The First Lady of US Melania Trump visited migrant child detention centre in Texas on Thursday which clearly showed that she 'really care for them' while the coat she wore had a message "I REALLY DON'T CARE, DO U?" The provocative jacket has been criticised on social media.
Many tried to understand why she chose such a coat while visiting a detention centre.
“I REALLY DON’T 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!

Melania's spokesperson Stephanie Grisham in a statement said, "Writing on Trump's jacket was not intended to send a message. It's a jacket. There was no hidden message," She also added that the visit was an important visit to Texas and she hopes the media wasn't going to focus on her wardrobe.
Donald Trump took to Twitter and wrote, "It refers to the Fake News Media. Melania has learned how dishonest they are, and she truly no longer cares!"

Throughout the day Twitter was abuzz with outcry calling the jacket ill-conceived if unintentional as the message was not suitable while she was visiting migrant children separated from their parents.
Earlier Spokesperson of Melania said, " If media would spend their time & energy on her actions & efforts to help kids - rather than speculate & focus on her wardrobe - we could get so much accomplished on behalf of children," she scolded. She also said the first lady's visit with the children in Texas "impacted @flotus greatly."
