The wife of top Trump advisor and Trump administration immigration policy architect Stephen Miller made an awkward mistake Friday while trying to defend First lady Melania Trump and attack a Democrat.
Conservative podcaster and Elon Musk employee Katie Miller was trying to defend the First lady’s English skills and say she was a “good” immigrant compared to Rep. Ilhan Omar(D-MN), who is also an immigrant, when she referred to her as “Melanie” in a now-deleted post on X, The Daily Beast reported.
“Melanie Trump loves her country and has devoted her life to serving it,” Miller wrote. “You can’t say the same for Ilhan Omar who openly hates America and laughs off the theft of a billion dollars by her own Somali people.”
After the post, people started asking X, “Who’s Melanie?”
Miller was apparently trying to respond to a Thursday post on X from a progressive influencer, Alex Cole. Cole had written this: “Ilhan Omar speaks MUCH better English than Melania. Just sayin.”
Omar has faced multiple attacks from President Donald Trump and within the administration. Last week the president called her “garbage” and attacked the Somali American community in Minnesota — the area and many of the people she represents.
Melania has had her name misspelled before. Her own husband did the same in 2018 calling her “Melanie” following her return from a hospital after she underwent a kidney procedure, CNN reported.
