Giant Donald Trump Balloon in KKK Robe Welcomes Melania to Phoenix Immigration Shelter
By Christina Zhao On 6/29/18 at 8:32 AM

First lady Melania Trump was greeted in Phoenix Thursday by a group of protesters with a giant comical balloon of her husband, Donald, in a Ku Klux Klan outfit.

As Melania arrived at a migrant-holding facility for children, the protesters had a balloon of the president wearing a KKK robe over a blue suit and holding a white, sharply pointed hat.

“About 30 protesters are waiting for Melania Trump across the street from a Southwest Key facility in west Phoenix,” Matthew Casey, a KJZZ Phoenix reporter, tweeted alongside a video of the inflatable Trump. Casey added in the comments section that the protesters were also playing the N.W.A song F*** Tha Police.

According to KJZZ's Fronteras Desk, Melania had to enter the facility from the back to avoid the small crowd that had been waiting in hot temperatures since midday to confront the first lady over the Trump administration’s handling of immigration.

“She looks like a coward,” Maria Cruz Ramirez, from the activist group Puente, said. “She had to go in from the back.”

plus she has her own "hell" she is living in, but I heard she supported her husband's decision to run for President too.

is Melanie a "back door woman"? If so, it is by choice. How much does she have in a pre-nup with the Racist in Chief? She REALLY DOESN'T CARE! Duh!

Speaking as a woman, what is the correct term for a woman who sides with "pussy grabbers" and misoginysts? Is there even a phrase for it?

I get it though (PC doesn't apply to the Drumpf family in my book). But to be DU appropriate I will hold my tongue.

Does anyone care what she does. She seems so pointless — her entire existence seems pointless.

I suppose they think she is providing some kind of moral support for the ICE agents or something. She is pointless. She is a worthless human being just like her husband and his children.
