“I’m Against the Violence”: US First Lady Melania Trump Speaks out on Minneapolis Protests as The View Questions her Timing

(ABC)

The hosts of The View have hit back at First Lady Melania Trump after she spoke publicly about the ongoing anti-ICE protests taking place in Minneapolis. The exchange has quickly gained attention online, with viewers reacting to the sharp comments made during the daytime show.

The moment aired on Jan. 27 when the programme played a clip of Melania Trump addressing the protests. In the video, she said, “I know my husband, the president, had a great call with the governor and the mayor and they’re working together to make it peaceful and without riots,” before turning directly to those demonstrating in the city with the appeal, “I’m against the violence so please, if you protest, protest in peace.”
