First lady Melania Trump faced scrutiny on Wednesday for tweeting about Christmas while special counsel Robert Mueller was testifying in front of two House committees.
"#Christmas planning has begun in the East Wing at the @WhiteHouse," Melania Trump tweeted. "I'm looking forward to sharing our final vision for this unique tradition in the coming months." Many questioned the timing of her tweet considering it came as Mueller was concluding his testimony in front of the House Judiciary Committee. He was testifying about the two-year long investigation that concluded that no member of the Trump campaign knowingly conspired with Russia to win the election.

What’s the problem ?? Bobby Mueller was delivering a big Christmas present to Donald Trump while she was tweeting.

Questioned by Jimmy Kimmel and a passel of unknown names? Be serious. What was Brest thinking when he wrote this ridiculous piece?

Hat tip to Melania!! I'm looking forward to Christmas in the White House. (I suspect that HGTV will not be broadcasting any Christmas specials about it.)
It's difficult to express how foolish the Democrats looked yesterday.
It's equally difficult to understand how blind they remained yesterday evening. But, given the fact that they have been blind since November 2016, it's not surprising.

Christmas is more important than anything Mumbles had to say.

Melania can handle anything they whine about.
In the meantime, all you wastrels, leave this woman alone.
Your antics are just making it easier for the rest of us. KAG.

So Mueller testifying means we are not supposed to go on with our lives? I actually bought a new sweeper, did some grocery shopping, made dinner, put birdseed out and took a shower. Too much? Am I self centered? I guess I didn't get the memo that said I needed to get my blankie and curl up in a fetal position on the floor. By the way I have all my Christmas shopping done. I guess that means our First Lady can plan the White House decorations. Oh man, just when I don't think they could get any crazier they prove me wrong.

Now the First Lady and the rest of us are to be told what we can watch, read, eat, when we can sleep, etc.... These commies are really sick, and I mean sick!

I question the ''Many questioned the timing'' statement in the above lede. Capital-B Capital-S! Christmas speaks of salvation to come. What better way than that to climb out of the slime-pit the Dems pushed us into. Melania Trump is the first cleansing breath of air since the oh-so-special counsel was appointed.

Melania is beautiful and apolitical. Democrats + media are simply disgusting.

I don't think it's too early. The White House is a pretty big house. There are a lot of volunteers to put in place, a 'to do list' that would probably stretch from one side of the Potomac to the other. Parties to plan and decorate for, and on and on.
(Please Melania, no red trees, ok?)
I'm making Christmas plans too. I am expecting to be a great grandma for the first time around Christmas!
The left leaning loonies are so disappointed that life goes on even after their many failed attempts to oust this president. If I weren't so disgusted with them I would almost feel sorry for them. Poor babies.

So, what's the issue here?
The Mueller hearings are/were unimportant (except, IMHO, they disclosed that Mueller was an empty figurehead of a witch hunt run by his rabid Dim prosecutor staff).
Christmas is a very important holiday for us Christian Americans. Thank, you, First Lady, for recognizing this.

So we should have all been glued to the TEEVEE as we watched Mueller crash and burn, right? I guess Melania is just insensitive! (eye roll)
And by the way, Melania, please inclue LOTS and LOTS and LOTS of red trees this year! I thought they were gorgeous!

Well, what would you call that big beautiful Christmas gift that the democrats gave to Trump? Mueller had no idea whether he was pitching or catching. It was well-rehearsed on the democrat side, but the truth won the day. Mueller was as if he had no idea why he was even there. I think he had visions of Bill Barr stepping on his claspers and knew that if he lied, he would be the next in line for time in the clink. Too much Christmas in July? Nope!

Only a masochist would rather watch those ridiculous hearings than plan for Christmas.

Melania, fortunately, wasn't required to watch the dog and pony show. The MSM is so desperate for something, anything...

So?? Another person, actually doing their job. Which is planning holiday events for the WH, which include decorations. All this stuff has to be done months in advance. The term many stores use is Christmas in July. It wasn't her husband who was testifying now was it? Many people know how to multitask and accomplish a lot, and they can listen while doing so. So why aren't they attacking Hillary for checking her emails while she was actually at the witness table waiting to begin? Kudos for her actually listening to the testimony in the first place.

To all you whiners, please call the White House to reserve your block of government cheese to go with your whine.

Wow, Democrats are pretty pathetic when they can criticize somebody for talking about Christmas. Vacuous and vacant, bereft of sensibility.
