'Start with your husband': Melania Trump ruthlessly mocked after UN speech condemning bullying

First Lady Melania Trump delivered a speech at the United Nations condemning bullying — and many internet users could not help but call her out for hypocrisy.

Given that her husband is one of the most notorious cyberbullies on the internet, several Twitter users pointed out that Melania should have at least acknowledged the role that President Donald Trump has played in bullying other people, ranging from disabled reporters to Gold Star families.

Check out some of the top reactions below.

how we will react.

What will they do if we force the dumbest, meanest, most disgusting human being alive on them? Will they end up at war?

Will they handle it without war?

What we do will determine what this alien race will "do" about us.

I never thought I'd see weed legalized in my life, so there's hope for first contact, too.

She would be shunned by the GOP for failing to stand by her man, and Trump himself would likely loose a twitter tantrum upon her.



She shouldn't have given the speech at all. Plant your flag on some other battlefield, Mrs. Trump. You've lost this one.
