Melania Trump was mocked online on Monday 6 April after a video from the White House Easter Egg Roll in Washington, DC, showed the first lady reading to children, with critics on social media claiming she was 'struggling' and branding her 'a complete idiot.' The clip, which quickly spread across X, reignited long-standing ridicule of Melania Trump's Slovenian accent and prompted renewed debate over how she is perceived as first lady.
The row began after an X account posted footage of Melania reading the 1942 children's classic The Runaway Bunny during the annual Easter Egg Roll on the White House lawn. The Easter tradition, hosted by the White House, features games, activities and live entertainment for families.
