kiss by turning her cheek.

On Tuesday, the president and first lady joined together for the POTUS’ third state of the union address. Melania was stunning in her Dolce &Gabbana navy double-breasted wool suit. The FLOTUS even received two standing ovations at the event.

The crowd roared when she entered the venue and paired her gorgeous outfit with Blahnik pointed stilettos. The people gave Melania another round of applause when Trump thanked her for the FLOTUS’ Be Best initiative.

According to Daily Mail, Melania took cues from Hollywood celebrities by layering her blazer over her shoulders without putting her arms through the sleeves. She watched her spouse finish his speech with a smile on her face.

Melania styled her hair in her signature blow dry and finished off her look with a smoky eye, bronzer and groomed brows. Before the first couple walked off, Trump placed his hand around his wife and drew near her as he pursed his lips into a kiss. He was only inches away from Melania’s face, but the FLOTUS rejected the kiss and turned her cheek to face the crowd where Trump’s lips landed.

Meanwhile, many mocked Melania after Trump thanked her for Be Best campaign. Several said that the FLOTUS did nothing and her campaign wasn’t effective because she married a bully.

Last year, Trump bullied Greta Thunberg after she was named Time magazine’s Person of the Year. The POTUS commented that the 16-year-old activist should work on her anger management problem and Melania didn’t defend the teenager to the disappointment of many.

“This put me over the edge: Trump saying that Melania's Be Best campaign is going to ‘protect’ children was a slap in the face to those parents who lost loved ones in #Parkland #SandyHook, etc. #SOTU #SOTU2020 Really #TrumpIsSad,” @TippedHatEnt wrote on Twitter.

Many also noticed that Trump and Melania’s son Barron wasn’t present at the SOTU. Some online media users speculated that the 13-year-old boy was absent because Melania wanted to protect him while others believed he was at home playing Minecraft.
