Melania Trump addressed her critics in a public statement.
Melania Trump is advising critics who slammed plans to build a White House tennis court amid the coronavirus to “contribute something good.”
Some perceived the renovations as a bit removed — there are more than 100,000 confirmed global cases of the coronavirus with 340 in the United States, according to data compiled by Johns Hopkins University. Los Angeles, San Fransisco and Washington have declared states of emergency, tech conferences and pop culture festivals such as SXSW have been canceled and some Disney parks in Asia were temporarily closed.
Connie Schultz, the wife of Ohio Senator Sherrod Brown tweeted, “Millions of Americans seek assurance that this administration is doing all that it can to stem spread of the coronavirus, but the First Lady wants us to know she’s ‘excited’ about her new tennis court. People are scared, @FLOTUS. Flaunting a lack of empathy inflicts further harm.”
— Connie Schultz March 6, 2020 On Saturday, Farrow responded to Melania’s new tweet by writing, “Sorry if we were ‘negative & questioned’ your ‘good & productive work’ making a tennis pavilion for the WH with our money. We are dealing with a negative thing or two,” adding, “Love the hard-hat.” — Mia Farrow March 7, 2020 Do you have anyone reviewing your posts? Fire them & delete your acct. Every time you “share” it unleashes a country full of easy comebacks to your cluelessness & a passionate intolerance of you in general. Stay home & polish your gold toilet seats. Just don’t speak. Shhhh.
