It turns out that insulting the president’s wife is a bad idea.
Just after Donald Trump’s November victory, Russian state media broadcast racy photos from Melania Trump’s modeling career while the presenters stifled giggles. This was not well calculated to win over the Slovenian-American, who naturally sympathizes with Ukraine. As her husband remarked last month, “I go home and tell the first lady, ‘I spoke with Vladimir today. We had a wonderful conversation.’ She says, ‘Oh really? Another [Ukrainian] city was just hit.'” Trump brought to the Alaska summit a letter from Melania to Vladimir Putin essentially asking him to stop kidnapping and butchering Ukrainian children.
