Comedian Chelsea Handler is under fire for attacking the First Lady of the United State, Melania Trump. The world did not take it well when Handler criticized Melania's language skills.
FOX News reported that Handler made fun of Melania by telling everyone that she "barely speaks English." The comedian has been known to make fun of Melania's accent even during President Donald Trump's campaign.
The world was perplexed with Handler's actions, especially since she preached about working together for the good of the country before poking fun on the First Lady. She proudly said she disliked Trump and his wife while she talked about how the need for bipartisan cooperation between the two major political parties in the United States.
The comedian earned the ire of netizens for shaming Melania, who actually can speak five languages, including French, Italian, German, Slovene and English, Daily Mail reported. News outlets have pointed out that Handler can only speak one.
Handler said she is not willing to interview Melania or Trump in her Netflix show. Several Trump supporters have hit back against the comedian for trying to shame the presidential couple.
The comedian has long been trying to discredit Melania and Trump by tweeting jokes about the two. Specific to Melania, Handler joked about how Melania might need an interpreter during an interview. Netizens said the joke was not funny.
Some people are claiming that Handler's jokes are against immigrants who usually had to learn English as their second language. Melania was from Slovenia, which makes people wonder why Trump is set on pushing for anti-immigrant policies.
The people representing Handler refused to comment. It appears that Melania has not released any statement about the issue.
Jobs & Hire previously reported that Trump said Melania will join him in the White House as soon as their son, Barron Trump, finishes school.
