I'm still really curious about the First Lady's wardrobe choice on her trip to the border. It's not adding up.

It's safe to say it wasn't an accident. She's very well-known for her taste in clothes and, as a former model, very in touch with fashion. She didn't wear a $39 jacket on a whim. It was hot out and she only wore it when she was getting on and off the plane. She also wore it while walking back in to the White House after the trip.

The statement from her office is that there was "no hidden message." Not long after that, Trump said it was a statement about the "fake news" media.

IF she was told to wear it, why did the first statement say there wasn't a message? Why did Trump need to clarify?

IF she made the choice on her own, what was her point and who was it for?

I asked about that earlier and am still not clear. Her defenders were Johnny on the spot asserting that she had “the right” to wear it without any speculation as to what her motives might’ve been.
