BORDER/CHILDREN/IMMIGRATION/MELANIA/TEXAS: “Melania Trump visited immigrant children in a Texas border town on Thursday [6-21-18], and by the time the first lady left, she had made headlines for another reason. As the temperature climbed to 80 degrees at Joint Base Andrews near Washington, Mrs. Trump boarded her plane wearing an olive green coat that read, in white capital letters, ‘I really don’t care. Do U?’ For the second time since her husband took office — and the second time on a trip to Texas — Mrs. Trump had made an unusual choice. It was a move reminiscent of her decision last year to wear stilettos to a hurricane relief zone, which was also the subject of much deliberation about her fashion decisions. One common reaction to the jacket was bafflement: What was she thinking? No, really, what was she thinking? Mrs. Trump is a former model with a keen understanding of her own image. She never makes an accidental fashion choice…The first lady’s appearance, which was kept secret until she touched down, came as the administration, facing questions over the well-being and whereabouts of thousands of children, sought to put a more humane lens on its policies.”
