Switch the actors here. Let’s pretend that– idunno, Roseanne tweeted this about Michelle Obama back in the day. How exactly do you think that would’ve gone over?
The hypocrisy of @FLOTUS going down to the border to speak broken English to our refugees in that dumb jacket is a little hard to swallow. For all the trump supporters who defend her by saying she speaks five languages—English isn’t one of them.

If it sounds like she’s attacking Melania Trump for visiting detention centers WHILE ALSO having an accent, it’s because she’s attacking Melania Trump for visiting detention centers WHILE ALSO having an accent.
Broken English. What a hateful person. The difference is she immigrated LEGALLY. She, at least, is doing something pro-active besides sitting around whining and tweeting crap.

That meme really resonates with me today.
Dear @chelseahandler, Roses are Red, OUR @FLOTUS is smoking HOT, @realDonaldTrump is your @POTUS, LIKE IT or NOT. #LiberalismIsAMentalDisorder I thought you were fighting for women's rights, hypocrite. pic.twitter.com/WoCNPuUWLD

WHY IS IT OK TO MAKE FUN OF HER ACCENT? This is insensitive towards multilingual people and very problematic

Shouldn’t they be doing the OPPOSITE? Why aren’t they celebrating her for representing DIVERSITY? I thought they looooooved diversity?
Do you know that people are sick of you and your nasty mouth?

Her jacket was a statement to mean people like you!

It’s interesting to see the thread on this tweet. You have almost no support. These comments are career ending.

What career?

Ooooooouch.
What’s wrong with “broken English”? My mother came from Germany and spoke broken English. I remember people, like yourself, that would bully my mother because she could not speak fluent English.

Good news everyone! Making fun of migrants whose English is not their first language is all OK again

Chelsea’s hypocrisy knows no bounds.
