Melania Trump tweeted this and the replies were everything you’d hope for
You can’t have missed the worldwide outrage at what is going on in the US now, with immigrant children forcibly separated from their families by border officials.

It’s against this background of almost universal condemnation that Melania Trump thought it was a good idea to tweet this today.

Melania and Letizia talked about ways to "positively impact children". Insist that they're not put in cages would be a start, no? https://t.co/GanSfcrIPx
