“The irony was too much for many Twitter users to handle after Melania Trump accused the media of spreading “hate” during a campaign speech for her husband, President Donald Trump, in Tampa, Florida, on Thursday. “In a time when hate, negativity and fear are the messages the media streams into our homes and the large tech companies are protecting political censorship, we need to remember what is really important,” the first lady told the packed, mainly maskless crowd. “My husband’s administration is focused on the future, the health and safety of the American people, the education and wellbeing of our children,” she added.

They also asked exactly how the Trump administration is ensuring the health and safety of Americans, given its botched handling of the coronavirus pandemic that has now killed more than 223,000 people nationwide. That is a serious case of cognitive dissonance ya got there Birther lady. https://t.co/fgSmn94Oiy— Andrea R MD (@AndreaR9Md) Oktober 29, 2020 What was I saying about the distance between the rhetoric and reality? https://t.co/Xh4tmlfaaN— Alan Fisher (@AlanFisher) Oktober 29, 2020 Irony is dead.
