First Lady Melania Trump Admits Message Behind Infamous "I Really Don't Care" Jacket

First Lady Melania Trump

In June this year, First Lady Melania Trump's communications director, Stephanie Grisham, told CNN about the now-infamous "I Really Don't Care" jacket:

"It's a jacket. There was no hidden message. After today's important visit to Texas, I hope the media isn't going to choose to focus on her wardrobe."

In an interview tonight, Melania Trump contradicted her own comm director telling Tom Llamas of ABC News she wore the jacket, “For the people and for the left-wing media who are criticizing me. And I want to show them that I don’t care.”
