FFS. Now they're attacking Melania Trump for wearing a pith helmet

FFS. Now they’re mad at Melania Trump because she kept the sun of her face:

The pith helmet Melania Trump wore during a Kenyan safari wasn't her most glaring faux pas. But some see her choice of a symbol of European colonial rule as a big error on the global stage. https://t.co/509wb8PJxu

Or maybe it’s just a damn hat:

Melania Trump wearing a pith helmet on her trip to "Africa" is more than a silly sartorial choice. It's a reflection of her outdated understanding of Africa. (Also, she was photographed in safari attire multiple times on this trip.) #FLOTUSinAfricaBingo https://t.co/aCnkOnPBF8

More anger:

"The headgear was standard-issue for 19th century British officers in India and Africa, making them potent symbols of colonial rule." @jenniavins on Melania's pith helmet https://t.co/PgtUFGid2T

They’re also mad at her boots:

I see Melania went with the "perpetrator of a colonial massacre" boot choice. Tres chic. Just missing the pith helmet. https://t.co/VKVTABgkZF

And everything else she wore on the trip:

Actually, maybe she's got bigger goals. OF WEARING A SAFARI OUTFIT EVERY DAY IN AFRICA. See, e.g., this photo from the other day in #Ghana.

Siri, how do I set a news image alert for Melania in a pith helmet? pic.twitter.com/I0I6BDnMtU

Day two in #Ghana was so impactful. My visit to Cape Coast castle was a solemn reminder of a time in our history that should never be forgotten. Thank you to Chief Osabarima Kwesi Atta & the chieftains for the warm welcome & cultural ceremony. #FLOTUSinAfrica2018 pic.twitter.com/pdf9yrmQL8

UH OH! Resistance journo Soledad O'Brien did NOT like Melania Trump calling anonymous NYT op-ed author 'cowardly' https://t.co/zqFj5xwzxy
