Melania Trump might as well have been walking around Mar-a-Lago wearing her “I really don’t care, do u?” jacket on the opening day of testimony in her husband’s election interference/hush money criminal trial.
The former first lady could have shown up in court Monday to stand by her husband as his lawyer Todd Blanche, in his opening statement, tried to humanize Donald Trump. “He’s a man. He’s a husband. He’s a father. He’s a person just like you and just like me,” Blanche told the jurors.
But Melania was absent.
Perhaps she had posted a statement supporting her husband on the eve of the first-ever criminal trial of a former U.S. president.
But this is what she posted on X, formerly known as Twitter, on Sunday.
And the Mother’s Day necklace is yours for just $245. Her website describes it as “a customizable necklace designed by Melania Trump to honor all mothers.” Melania’s signature is inscribed on the back of each necklace which also can be engraved with names, initials, or significant dates “to create a one-of-a-kind piece of jewelry.”
And each necklace comes with a limited-edition digital collectible. The necklace is made in gold vermeil — which is gold-plated Sterling Silver.
And then there’s the question of where the money from necklace sales will go. There is no indication that any of the proceeds will go to charity. So will Melania use the money for her rainy day fund or to help her husband pay his mounting legal fees?
It didn’t take long for social media users to weigh in on this Mother’s Day gift offering. Here are some of the comments:
— This is worth about $6.
— So … give YOUR mother a necklace with Melania’s name on it.
— Is it just me or doesn’t Melania’s $245 Mother’s Day necklace look like something from a dog tag vending machine that you find at Petco?
— I can see that going perfectly with the gold sneakers.
— We never hear from Melania, not that I’m complaining, until it’s time for her to sell something for profit. Is she donating the revenue to a women’s shelter or charity? Of course not, she’s grifting off Mother’s Day, $245 dollar necklace, and it’s disgusting.
— Nice. A Three Leaf Clover … Representative of Donald+Melania+Stormy or is it Karen McDougal?
And what else was Melania up to over the weekend. She made a rare campaign appearance on Saturday night at a fundraiser at Mar-a-Lago for the Log Cabin Republicans, a conservative LGBTQ+ organization. Why was Melania dressed entirely in black?
Someone else was missing from the courtroom on Monday — Alina Habba. She has been making media appearances for Trump, but is not representing him in the election interference/hush money trial.
