On February 17, Melania Trump, an advocate for anti-bullying, urged her followers on Twitter to embrace their philanthropic side and commemorate "Random Acts of Kindness Day."

"I encourage everyone to test the power of kindness on Random Acts of Kindness Day. It's an opportunity to teach our children the importance of taking care of one another," she tweeted. While her intentions were lovely, the reception to her tweet was icy because of her association with someone who many identify as a notorious bully.


Melania's primary agenda as FLOTUS is to stop anti-bullying among America's youth and launched a campaign in October telling the United Nations, "We need to step up, come together, and ensure that our children's future is bright."

But people are having a problem taking her seriously.



People saw that her empowering words couldn't be more applicable to anyone other than her own husband, who's quick to lay blame, denigrate, and disrespect people based on contrasting beliefs and ideals.

Twitter echoed her own sentiment back to her.


Would he know a thing or two about bullying, though?


It might be a case of not being to teach an old dog new tricks.


She was met with similar backlash in October after she spoke about social isolation and inclusion to Michigan middle school students as part of her campaign.

I always believe that you need to treat each other with respect and kindness and compassion, but also stay true to yourself. Just listen to your heart, but be yourself.
Ask them what they like, what their hobbies are, so nobody becomes sad or stressed and everybody feels included. I think it's important that we choose kindness and compassion.

On social media, people took the opportunity to remind her of Trump's penchant for name-calling – a classic case of bullying.

One Twitter user admonished 45 for being a prime example of a bully.

Melania Trump on TV advising school kids about bullying?! Her husband, USA's #1 bully has emboldened hate in schools! First family disgrace.


Still, she's not the bully, and her benevolence didn't go completely unnoticed.




Still, the impassioned pleas from a demographic wanting change eclipsed the number of approving tweets.





Unfortunately for Melania, her message for America didn't go as planned.


And her loyalty to Donald Trump made this user question her judge of character.

Josh Hawley Gets Brutal Reality Check After His Hot Take About People Who Plead The Fifth

Missouri Republican Senator Josh Hawley was given a reality check after claiming that Dr. Anthony Fauci isn't "honest" after he invoked the Fifth Amendment during a hearing on Wednesday about his handling of the COVID pandemic.

The move temporarily spared Fauci from answering questions that could have exposed him to allegations of lying under oath. Although former President Joe Biden granted him a pardon in early 2025, some Republicans who have pushed for years to pursue legal action against Fauci argued he could still face prosecution for any perjury committed during Wednesday's testimony.
