On Monday, Melania celebrated her third year as FLOTUS by sharing a photo of her during the 58th presidential inauguration on social media. “It is a great honor to serve the people of this incredible country. #InaugurationDay2017,” the FLOTUS wrote on Twitter. As per usual, Melania’s post was met with mixed reactions from fans and critics alike.

Avid supporters of Melania Trump gave praises for her works since the start of the Trump presidency. “You are amazing, America LOVES you!” Matt Couch commented on her post. “Thank you for all you do!

Or take everything-that's-not-nailed-down from?” FP Smith stated.

“Your obsession is disturbing,” a ninth netizen wrote. “Trump needs to buy a magazine and put @FLOTUS on the cover. Over and over,” another Twitter user said. “Yes it is such an honor to this country to have a softcore porn actress who got here on a fraudulent visa and then brought her parents here on chain immigration,” Ryan Graney added. Melania Trump has yet to comment on these harsh remarks.

"It has been an unforgettable two years in the @WhiteHouse," Melania wrote last year. "I am honored to serve this great nation!" Barron’s mom went on.
