The overseas trip continues for President and Melania Trump, and we’ve now reached the clothing cost portion of the news cycle:
Melania wore a $51,500 Dolce & Gabbana coat in Sicily today https://t.co/ztKeAnFAUc pic.twitter.com/HntgH54ghY

Ah, OK:
The funny thing is, I got roasted routinely when I pointed out how much Michelle Obama's clothes cost. At least Melania buys her own stuff. https://t.co/cHhfNZ8Vpo

She's a millionaire model. Your point? https://t.co/syWsrozCqG

Did you comment on Hillary's $12,000 Armani jacket she wore at one of her speeches? https://t.co/A4oim1sUxj

Michelle Obama spent a lot on clothes too. This is not an issue. https://t.co/GQvkPopMra

@BraddJaffy Remember when Hillary wore the Kirby vacuum inspired jacket that cost $12,500? #Shattered

Will you be reporting on the fashion of the rest of the women there or just Melania? One would hate to think you're pushing a narrative. https://t.co/lcnX6WkWLh

Melania Trump visits Sicily, wears $51,500 designer jacket – who cares? We know she can afford it. Not tax payer $https://t.co/NKHKtNfOWU

But it did manage to help feed another narrative, which the MSM seems to think is their job these days:
Her wardrobe costs more than most of his supporters make in a year… yet they still think he really gives a shit about them. Morons. https://t.co/noivKBiblC

Meanwhile, in America, millions of citizens wore red noses to raise money for American children living in poverty. Nice fucking coat. https://t.co/HyTAdIluuv

And it’s especially maddening after the president lectured about “shared sacrifice.” Oh wait, that was Obama.
