Former New York Times reporter Kurt Eichenwald slammed first lady Melania Trump for renovating the White House Rose Garden saying on Saturday that he is “furious” she is “a foreigner,” sparking pushback from other journalists. “It is a destruction of our history, something no other First Lady would have had the gall to do,” Eichenwald, a New York Times bestselling author, tweeted on Saturday, “This is the first time I have been furious that @FLOTUS is a foreigner. She has no right to wreck our history.”

If this cretin had lived in Jackie Kennedy's time he would have praised her to the skies for making the rose garden much like Melania remade it.

How exciting that a liberal operative posing as a journalist does not want to see history "wrecked" by anyone! Can we expect to see defaced or destroyed statues of the founding fathers going back up soon???

Melania is more American than 40% of the people who were born here.

I know exactly how Kurt Eichenwald feels-this is what I thought when OBAMA was in the White House! Almost word for word!

With a name like ,"Kurt Eichenwald", his parents probably worked at a German arms plant!

I thought she was restoring history. It now is as the Kennedys had it in 1962. Right. Kennedys of all people. Anyway it is history and it is beautiful.
Who the hell is Eichenwald? Even Spell Check rejects him. Hmmm.

The pig who spewed this is a homely slob with a big mouth. The type who start a road rage incident end up on the ground bleeding and crying. His theory about what constitutes history at the W.H. and who should be declared a 'foreigner,' says it all about the new Brownshirts. This is a case where HIS ethnic background should be liked to the worst racist/genocidal culture in modern history.

So American citizen Melania Trump, wife and mother of American citizens, is a foreigner? If you're willing to make that kind of judgment, what do you make of Biden's VP pick? She was born to a Tamil from India and a Jamaican, neither one of which were American citizens. LIghten up, Kurt. This is America, the melting pot. Deal with it.

Found this online: "Born in Slovenia, Melania is the first naturalized citizen FLOTUS." I knew she was foreign born, but I believed she was a naturalized citizen. I am glad that I was correct in this assumption. Melania always dresses and conducts herself with CLASS, and taste. The newly-renovated WH garden will be no different. Wait until the roses are in full bloom as they mature. Can't wait until the naysayers end up eating their disparaging words!! They never learn.

Melania has more genuine love and appreciation for America and its traditions that that other foreigner, Barack Hussein Obama, had in his gigantic ears, much less in his entire body.

Whether she sets it up as a flower garden, a food plot, or a hog farm - it's her yard. She can do with it as she sees fit, just as every First Family has before, and just as every First Family will in the future. It's so petty to be angry over what a person does with their own yard.

The NYT reporter is like most NYT folks, a nasty, foul-mouthed, hateful, rude, obnoxious, disgusting, stupid, ignorant, bigoted punk.
But other than that, I'm sure he's a fine person.
NOT.

I am proud to have been blocked by Eichenwald on social media. This guy researches tenticle porn on the net. He is not a nice guy but thinks a lot of himself. Just ask him. He couldn't hold a garden spade to Melania nor could he carry her water. Ignore the ignoramous.

I looked up what eichenwald means and according to the web it's either oak wood or oak forest. My best guess is that his head is made of oak. He should change his name to Kurt Eichenkopf.

Hmmm. Apparently history is only "destroyed" if a non-woke person changes something. It's okay to remove/destroy statues, monuments, plaques, etc. if one is "woke" or democrat and does so in the name of anti-racism or whatever the politically correct flavor of the day is; but if the First Lady uses private funds donated to alter the Rose Garden (which is her right as First Lady), she's vilified. Amazing. Once more, down the rabbit hole....Can't wait to vote Trump (again)!

Don’t know Eichenwald and don’t care to. He is a critic of the First Lady’s make over of of the WH Rose Garden and the destruction of our history, yet says nothing about the history destroyed by the thugs, basement dwellers, spoiled brats, non-workers, know as BLM, Antifa, and other protesters. They destroyed historical buildings, statues, and businesses and not a word. So who cares what you think!

Melania is an American citizen, not a foreigner. If a Republican had said this about a Democrat, they'd be called racist!
