Melania Trump left off Forbes 'most powerful' women list, slammed by netizens for 'not doing anything for the country'
FLOTUS Melania Trump, who was left off the Forbes most powerful women's list, was criticized by social media users, with some saying, "FLOTUS has done NOTHING for our country."
The online criticism was sparked after a Fox&Friends panel slammed the listing for leaving out FLOTUS while ranking German chancellor Angela Merkel as first and Melania's stepdaughter Ivanka 42nd.
One presenter shared, "I want women who are recognized for actually doing good things for individuals. The panel also had a lot of critique for Merkel who had been listed as first."
Guest presenter Tammy Bruce shared that it would have been better to have "women who are actually recognized as doing good things for people" instead of people like Merkel who "famously has been praised for standing up to Donald Trump."
After a clip of the show was shared on Twitter, Melania received a lot of criticism from social media users. One user wrote, "They thought Melania should be on the 100 Most Powerful Women list? Melania who?"
Another user echoed the sentiments and wrote, "Maybe that’s because someone should actually be expected to accomplish something tangible and of value to be named to this list?" Another user shared, "Melania could be replaced with a leftover mannequin."
Many of the users also referred to FLOTUS' silence on Donald Trump's attack on climate activist, Greta Thunberg. The POTUS had tweeted, "So ridiculous. Greta must work on her Anger Management problem, then go to a good old fashioned movie with a friend! Chill Greta, Chill!"
Many social media users started to use the hashtag 'Be Best' to remind Melania of her anti-bullying campaign given that Donald was picking on a 16-year-old. One user shared, "I'm starting to think Melanie's #BeBest campaign isn't working very well." Another added, "So ridiculous. Where's @FLOTUS to remind her husband to #BeBest? Thought it was bad to attack minors? A grown man bullying a 16-year-old... Don't ever chill Greta. Also keep sailing bc that's pretty cool."
