Along with many other countries around the world, the United States and its leaders often take time to say a few words about the Holocaust, and Melania Trump and Ivana Trump did just that in a pair of tweets on January 27.

"He has definitely done more TO women - but sexual assault is not something to be proud of," one tweet read in response to the controversial history of Donald Trump.
Since you make your money on the labor of children & poor in sweatshops overseas, I thought these pictures should make you think. They were also owned by dreamers. pic.twitter.com/EQnxZ7hEJK

"I really do feel for you.
I don't doubt you are a good person. I do greatly doubt your judgement," a Twitter user responded to the first lady. "She's a birther! she's complicit! she hasn't been honest about HER PAPERS & HER WORK HISTORY in the US, or that of her SISTER," another tweet added about Melania.
I don't doubt you are a good person. I do greatly doubt your judgement.

"Never will America forget Tax Scam Bill that the wealthy & the Trump Crime Family benefited off of, while the middle class pays for it & more corp laying off workers!!" a tweet read to Ivanka Trump.
"Since you make your money on the labor of children & poor in sweatshops overseas, I thought these pictures should make you think. They were also owned by dreamers," yet another tweet stated in regards to Ivanka's international business that have been accused of unfair labor standards. The backlash continued as the opposition to the entire Trump family showed no signs of coming to an end at anytime in the near future.
