How about she maybe shut up and take the fucking books? This is why people shit on us, we start spouting off like college sophomores over stupid shit like Dr Seuss FFS. She got the attention she so desperately wanted and gave the right another example of an attention seeking virtue signaler.

The poster does have a point on if this was Michelle Obama it would have received a thank you. As much of a shit bag as Trump is, our education system has been failing for years. Both parties are equally responsible for not trying to create a solution for underprivileged schools on both state and federal levels. Not

Michelle Obama went to a school and read Seuss, was that an empty gesture?

who did Melania appoint? You know if people were shitting on Michelle Obama based on her husband’s policies the same people here would be up in arms.

Yeah, but I think this isn’t really about Dr. Suess at all. She was presented an opportunity, a “platform” if you will, to present her displeasure with the current admininnstration I agree with a lot of what she said. But I also have a (grown) kid who attended public school in a place quite similar to where she works

Some conservative sleuths also dug up some pictures from her social media or somewhere where she had no problem celebrating Dr. Seuss and stuff, so it’s kind of a pile on. Of course, there’s always the chance that’s been faked, but I couldn’t find anything where it had been debunked.

The Trumps are vile, but rejecting a book donation from the First Lady is classless and pointless. Even Trump-hater me wouldn’t do that.

It is possible? Possibly. What’s more likely is that she seized this opportunity to air her political views in a thinly veiled “what’s best for the children” exhortation and then tacked on the Suess jab, maybe not realizing it would come back to bite her on the ass.

Dr. Seuss IS a pretty cliche choice that indicates no thought went into this gift whatsoever. And Dr. Seuss certainly has a history of having drawn some racist shit (although I’ve never had that charge lobbed at any of his books). So she’s not wrong....

Here my initial list:
1) it was just plain rude. I was raised to say thank you to a gift even if it was one I didn’t want. I didn’t respond with an attack on that person. If Obama had sent them you know she would have just said a polite thank you.
2) it was a gift from FLOTUS, she doesn’t set policy nor did she hire

Accept the books and immediately put them on E-Bay. Donate the proceeds to a low-income school district.

I... kinda agree with the Melania defenders? I mean, the librarian’s argument is sound, and we all hate Trump (Donald more so than Melania) and DeVos. But it’s still a dick move to throw a well-meaning gift back in someone’s face. It’s just impolite. And if someone had done that with a book selection that Michelle

Here ya go.

I don’t like the Trumps, but wow this librarian is a piece of work.

Thanks for the autoplay! My boss loved hearing that!

I have been saying for years how to rectify this issue but no one listens to me.
