Donald Trump is facing fresh scrutiny after reports claimed he authorised a cow at a Washington, D.C. state fair to be named 'Melania,' a move some critics have branded a 'brutal public slap' at the First Lady amid ongoing speculation about their marriage troubles.
The naming took place during a National Mall event tied to the United States' 250th anniversary celebrations. While the gesture might appear light-hearted on paper, the reaction online and among political watchers has been anything but uniform.
