10 best Melania Trump inauguration outfit memes, ranked
Get the Full StoryIt happened, folks. Donald Trump, after winning an eye-opening second victory, is once again president of the United States. His inauguration was the typical propaganda-fest of rampant lies and mind-boggling first moves, and it quickly became the subject of criticism and no shortage of jokes among the world s innumerable Trump detractors. People poked fun at everyone in attendance, from President Elon Musk and his fidgety first lady Donald to the billionaire cronies lined up behind their new bestie-in-chief, and even actual First Lady Melania Trump soon became a target. Her fashion is always a talking point following major events, but the apathetic 54-year-old outdid herself at her husband s second inauguration. Melania showed up to the event dolled-up in an outfit that would be perfectly suitable for a funeral or a children s cartoon. Her all-black outfit and leather gloves were more than enough to throw people for a loop, but it was the inclusion of a heavily brimmed boater-style hat that really caught the attention of onlookers. The best Melania hat memes from Trump s second inauguration pic.twitter.com MB9eXulel4 Mel Aura mel__aura January 20, 2025 Melania s absurd hat pulled quite a bit of focus during her husband s inauguration, but that may have actually been the point. Its not like Melania and Don get along, so the strange fashion decision could easily be explained away as a subtle F you to hubby or just another fashion faux pas from the woman who wore a coat proclaiming she doesn t care while visiting migrant children detained in a facility. Hard to say. One thing is for sure, however that hat made waves among viewers. People were genuinely off put by the strange outfit inclusion, and promptly raced to social media to make a range of hilarious comparisons. I mean, come on the resemblance is uncanny.

Ketelaar 3 PieterJKetelaar January 20, 2025 The Hamburglar was a favorite comparison among meme-makers, and there s no denying the accuracy. That hat may truly have been inspired by those long-ago McDonald s commercials and there s no doubt she needs to lean on subterfuge to rip even one burger from Trump s cold, hungry fingers.

Damiano with the Melania Trump's hat pic.twitter.com e4L4iFu6VC Lorenza LorenzaCartagi1 January 21, 2025 Jokes about Melania s grim presence, amplified by her attire, quickly popped off, as people openly pondered just why this woman looks like she s attending a funeral, instead of an inauguration. Melania is in mourning today. Four more years stuck next to this clown pic.twitter.com vcaRYGIfQ6 Protect Kamala Harris DisavowTrump20 January 20, 2025 Perhaps the best assessment of Melania s look pins the blame for the hat on a familiar culprit. Maybe it wasn t about channelling his favorite fast food restaurant after all maybe it was just a convenient barricade to stop any unwanted contact. Oh, now it makes sense. Melania wore the hat as a barrier to Trump s lips. Got it. #Inauguration2025 pic.twitter.com v35yY7eD3I JC R WHIT JC99WHIT January 20, 2025 Melania wore that hat to protect herself from Trump kissing her very effective! pic.twitter.com WlXxXKvUfv Jon Cooper joncoopertweets January 20, 2025 There could be any number of culprits behind Melania s odd fashion statement, but whether it was so she could roll her eyes unseen, avoid any unwanted contact with her horrendous hubby, or simply as a means to get some shut-eye during Trump s rambling speech, it was clearly a slam-dunk.Share:
