Melania Trump faced a storm of online criticism this morning when she departed for Texas to visit the victims of Hurricane Harvey in snakeskin stilettos that were clearly out of step with the occasion. By the time she had landed in Corpus Christi, the First Lady had changed into a more practical pair of Adidas Stan Smith sneakers, apparently caving to public pressure.
Trump also exchanged her all-black ensemble for a crisp white button-down shirt and tailored jeans. She chose to add a black hat with the word “FLOTUS” stamped across it, which resembled tour merch and felt like an odd addition given the serious nature of the visit.
The critic who intimidated Melania?
