Melania dressed more than a thousand students attending the Baltimore Youth Summit on Tuesday.

Other Twitter users savaged Melania as they “thanked” Baltimore for the unfriendly reception and said “it’s what she deserves”.
However others defended her. One said: “I like her a lot. It’s a shame the work she does gets overshadowed by her husband.
“Of course this is the case. I’m just saying if she were judged on her own character and actions she’d be admired. Instead she’s insulted and demeaned.”
