Late-Night Hosts Weigh in on Melania Trump's "I Really Don't Care" Jacket
"You know a lot of people are giving her a hard time about it, but I think it's nice that had a jacket made to display her wedding vows," Seth Meyers joked.
Late-night hosts ventured into fashion criticism on Thursday night when they reacted to a controversial jacket, emblazoned with the message "I really don't care," that Melania Trump wore on a trip to an immigrant children's detension center.
The First Lady wore the green Zara military jacket for travel to and from the center in Texas; she was not photographed with it on at the facility. After photographs made the rounds on the Internet, President Trump tweeted, "I REALLY DON’T CARE, DO U?” written on the back of Melania’s jacket, refers to the Fake News Media. Melania has learned how dishonest they are, and she truly no longer cares!"
Melania's spokeswoman, meanwhile, said, "It's a jacket. There was no hidden message. After today's important visit to Texas, I hope this isn't what the media is going to choose to focus on."
Over on Late Night, host Seth Meyers joked of the divisive apparel, "You know a lot of people are giving her a hard time about it, but I think it's nice that had a jacket made to display her wedding vows."
