First Lady of the United States Melania Trump has thanked Chelsea Clinton, daughter of former President Bill Clinton and presidential candidate Hillary Clinton for defending her son against online bullies.
Chelsea has defend Barron Trump from a Twitter user @mattyrenn, who shared a photo of Melania’s son with a quote from a conservative news publication The Daily Caller article that criticised the clothing choices of Barron Trump.
The youngest Trump doesn’t have any responsibilities as the president’s son, but the least he could do is dress the part when he steps out in public.
Having grown up in the White House under the harsh glare of media attention, Chelsea Clinton quickly came to his defence, quoting the tweet and saying:
Dear Matty-Barron is A KID. No child should be talked about in the below manner-in real life or online. And for an adult to do so? For shame.
