It’s been over three weeks since Melania Trump was last seen in public and the internet is becoming very worried.
It all started when Mrs. Trump was admitted to the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center near Washington D.C. for “an embolisation procedure to treat a benign kidney condition” earlier this month.
“The procedure was successful and there were no complications,” a statement from the White House said after her release.

How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
Since then, however, Melania has been totally MIA.
Her last public appearance was at the beginning of this month when she and her husband welcomed home three U.S. detainees from North Korea.
Gossip has mounted as to where exactly FLOTUS is… or isn’t. Is she at the White House? Has she left Washington, D.C.? Maybe she’s hiding in Trump Tower? Has she fled the country?
Memers, in particular, are especially concerned…
After weeks of speculation, whoever is in charge of the official FLOTUS Twitter page tweeted yesterday:
I see the media is working overtime speculating where I am & what I'm doing. Rest assured, I'm here at the @WhiteHouse w my family, feeling great, & working hard on behalf of children & the American people!

But people were not convinced:
WHO WROTE THIS?!?!?!?

Melania is a true class act. Shame on anyone who bashes her. She’s a wonderful role model for young people and immigrants. Anyone who can find fault with her probably finds a fault in everything about their lives. Sad for them but it bitterness only eats from the inside out.
DCguy
Please point out where Melania was bashed.

You’re totally correct. She is a Class Act! People bash her repeatedly because she’s Tump’s wife, and she’s not Michelle Obama.

“bitterness only eats from the inside out.”
You, and every Trump voter, should post that someplace where you’ll see it 20 times a day.
Queerty comments about Melania have been mostly positive.

To be fair, the Queerty comments have been quite mixed. I’ve been deleting the gross ones.

Heywood, “Queerty comments about Melania have been mostly positive.” Really? What have you been smoking?

I mean, where is she? It is very strange for a First Lady to go missing for three weeks, with no sightings or reports or anything. Given how relentlessly (3000+ lies and counting since January 2017 alone) the Trumpkin and its administration spews lies, you can’t take anything he says or tweets, even if faking for her, to be true. So where is she? It’s not like she’s just a private citizen who underwent a supposedly routine operation. She’s the First Lady, and the American people deserve something more than the usual lies and evasions. Wherever she is, though, I hope she’s OK.

Didnt she had a major surgery give her a break
Cylest Brooks
Did she? I hadn’t heard anything about it.

She supposedly had kidney surgery for a benign condition and was to leave the hospital after two days, but then had to stay for almost a week. It supposedly was not “major surgery.” She hasn’t been seen in public since. Other First Ladies have had surgeries and medical treatment, and we usually see them shortly after they get out of the hospital or if they’re in rehab, etc. In addition, the President didn’t mention her on Mother’s Day, right before the surgery, nor was he there when she was being operated on. All very strange, don’t you think? Like I said, I hope she’s OK.

And her going missing is an issue, why?
